Michael Beckwith is the real thing. god bless new age, but it's not my cup of tea. this is not another new age name it and claim it practice. (not there is anything wrong with that, but it's not) My concern with things like The Secret and Manifestation books and cds is how empty and heartbroken they may ultimately leave people if and when the ideas stop working. And staying stuck on creating "things" will ultimately have a diminished return and leave people feeling like they've tired it all and failed. I'm not knocking them, they are great tools but unless we go deeper they tend to go flat if we stay focused on "fixing" what doesn't really need to be fixed. This process goes so far beyond the band aid approach of getting a new house or healing one illness. This is a great tool for realizing on a daily basis our oneness with the universe, the field, God, whatever you wish to call it. Michael's work reminds me of Ernest Holmes and Emma Curtis Hopkins. I am a licensed psychotherapist and executive coach. And I have used elements of the Life Visioning process in corporate settings with boards and executives doing strategic planning. If you are ready to examine where you may have some forgiveness to do, where you may have hit a bump in the road and still believe you may be a victim to outside circumstance, what your soul is calling you to express here, and if you are ready to begin to surrender with trust to a power working in as and through you, then I can't recommend this enough.

In his usual dynamic and inspirational manner, Michael Beckwith guides in what he terms the Life Visioning Process that leads to the love, wisdom and beauty that you are. He invites conscious participation in the evolution of your soul to realize your highest potential.
He encourages the surrender of the victim consciousness and believes that you can "make it happen" by engaging universal law. This leads to his third stage of being a channel so that the higher intelligence works through us. In his final stage, Being Consciousness, he approaches enlightened living.
The course offers guided meditations, creative visualization and affirmative prayer as tools to reach his outlined stages of consciousness.

All over this!!!!, Jun 17 2008

Michael Beckwith has a beautiful gift of making you feel as if he's speaking only to you. In this series, he exposes himself so freely, sharing his personal stories and experiences of his own Evolutionary Journey. I was feeling extremely low the other night and decided to listen to disc #5 and found encouragement in his words about the 'dark nights' being signs of growth and freedom...the ego dissolving. I often find myself running away from 'feeling bad'......he says, Dont avoid the void...embrace it. Sometimes 'feeling bad' indicates that good work is being accomplished.
Life Visioning is a universal lesson in spirit, work, relationships, self or however you would like to apply it. I hear something different every time I put it in. What I am looking for speaks to me. Even if youre not into New Thought, the information on these CDs will cause you to close your eyes and really look at yourself. Encouraging and inspiring you to live to your fullest potential...which is what its all about, right? The bottom line for all of us is to be expressions of LOVE.......being the absolute best we can be.
I am all over this ;) Looking forward to the new book Spiritual Liberation!
