The Shift to Spiritual Perception. A profound, thought-provoking guide to shifting perceptions to reveal what is hidden in plain sight: heaven on earth.

From Beca Lewis' Preface: “It is our point of view, our perception that determines our world and the life we lead...There has never been a single moment that we have not or will not be living in Grace...[even though]we search for meaning, power and reasons for our existence...we are walking a path together, evolving together, and supporting each other in our ‘search' for Truth, but in Truth we are already One and we have never left the Reality of Heaven.”

If you have ever asked:
Why is life so unfair, so hard for me? Why do other people have all the luck? Why doesn't anybody love me? Why don't I know what to do? Then give yourself the gift of Living in Grace. It will change your mind, shift your perceptions & give you ideas that will change the rest of your life. No, it won't happen over night, like being touched by the Good Fairy's wand, because you do have do the “work.”

Through stories that connect to themes & exercises, Beca Lewis offers gears (ways) to shifting our lives into a state of Grace:

First -- realign our Spiritual Perception -- “Have you ever wondered what your life would be like if everything you ever thought came true?” Here Beca Lewis explains how Perception Produces Reality, & that “In order to live the life we were meant to live we must change our point of view and focus on the Truth of our Being.” Then she goes on to shine a thoroughly modern light on how we might do this.

Second -- in our work at The Shift to Gracious, we come to The Fork In The Road & as the great Yogi Berra says: “When you come to a fork in the road, take it.” Which one? Ah, read this section & make your choice, along the way Beca Lewis will introduce you to “God”, like you've never met before -- an Infinite One Loving Mind. Good stuff!

Third -- is all about how we walk with ourselves & with others, with our bodies, our purpose & our money, in other words how we Walk Our Talk.

As I read Living in Grace I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop, to be suddenly roundly slapped upside the head with some religious dogma. While a focus on Christianity does appear halfway through the book, it is not the Christianity of our childhood. Beca Lewis' exercises & ideas actually transcend that exclusivity, although I'm sure this author wouldn't want me to mention that -- as if living in grace is only available in that “one size fits all” religion!

Beca Lewis has something to tell us, & it is memorable, a sometimes scary, often useful look into how to transform the quality of our lives, to live the life we've always wanted to, to know contentment, authenticity, & be present in our Living in Grace.

Beca Lewis is an author dedicated to bringing universal principles & laws into tangible & useable forms to produce practical results. Her years of teaching The Shift™ seminars have made her an expert on how to shift perceptions to the experience of Living in Grace.
