About the Work
How The Mind Works - New Thought, 1866-1954
Larson's practical framing of habitual thought and mental discipline - how the mind habitually attends, reacts, and organises experience, and how directed thinking reshapes outcomes.
The Science Behind It
Larson's prolific optimism-based approach is the closest New Thought comes to positive psychology as a formal discipline. His emphasis on the 'promise yourself' principle maps to self-compassion research - treating yourself as you would a good friend is one of the most evidence-backed interventions for sustained positive change. His insistence on consistency over intensity anticipates what we now know about neuroplasticity: small repeated actions create stronger and more durable neural pathways than occasional dramatic ones.
