A sparkling and instructive book. ~ Network Review

The overriding feeling of this book is a personal and passionate invitation to bring spirituality into modern life. Regardless of whether youre on the path already, this delightfully soulful approach is founded on love... I found the authors style warm and engaging, which is always a treat in any good book. This is exactly the sort of book which causes me a dilemma: there are so many people I want to lend a copy to, but actually, I just know it wont be returned if I do.

A complete breath of fresh air to a genre of spiritualism which of later years has tended to take itself very, very seriously indeed! Filled with warmth, fun, realism, laughter and encouragement you will discover how you can manifest a richly fulfilling spiritual life.

This is a wonderful book which is well written, well organized and very entertaining.  In this book Grist talks about how one can live a spiritual life without having to make huge, major life changes.  While I do not agree with everything she says, her book is very engaging and I would recommend it to many people.

This is honestly a book I could read several times over a couple year period.  It can help almost anyone, especially woman, who are trying to fit faith into their lives

Alice Grist is the Sassiest spiritualista out there. The High Heeled Guide to Spiritual Living is any conscious seekers;s guide to life. Her second book, draws from the well of Alice's own experiences of spiritual awakening. She dips a hilarious yet thought-provoking spoon into everything from battles with the ego, body issues, gurus, love, beauty, diet, Karma... infact, every aspect of this crazily beautiful journey that is life, and serves it up with a sprinkling of down to earthiness and the kind of outlook that we can all relate to. We are keeping a keen eye on this bright star. 

In her first book, The High Heeled Guide to Enlightenment, Grist recounted her search for spirituality through the wisdom of ancient spiritual traditions. Instead of finding the answer she was looking for, she found more questions. It opened a door that allowed spirituality to find her. Actually, it allowed her to realize that she was already spiritual and everything in her life was part of her spiritual journey. It’s a truth that any authentic guru will give to his/her followers. It’s a truth that readers will relate to and revel in.

She divides the book into eleven lessons. Each lesson is a kind of meditation on a topic: faith, the Goddess, love. Dynamic, witty, and filled with insight disguised as common sense, her writing puts universal experiences, especially women’s experiences, into language that allows us to look at them from a new perspective. This one will apply to a broad audience. It’s fun to read and will leave readers feeling better about themselves. Of course, you’ll want to display it with The High Heeled Guide to Enlightenment — a perfect package.


 

The new book is a must read. Alice, who is feisty and no-nonsense, shares her own spiritual secrets and experiences, busts mystical myths and speaks directly to any girl (or guy) who need to spiritualize their life in the 21st Century. You’ll find lots of inspirations and insights into your own spirituality, the mechanisms of your thoughts and the magic of being in the moment – I love it!

Alice has written a frank and honest account in very simple terms for all to understand, this is a definitive Guide to a more Spiritual life. It is clear that Alice has a lot of experience on this subject and is extremely honest and often very amusing in her interpretation of this subject.“ The High Heeled Guide to Spiritual Living demonstrates how in a world overrun by rampant egos, consumerism and celebrity you can revamp your life your soul with feisty feminine panache”

This really is an easy read whether you are new to the Spiritual Living or just looking for a fresh view or to help you back on track. I loved the way at the start that Alice list of the don’t /nots and clears all the misconceptions we all have

A book you can pick up and put down and just read when you have a little bit of free time. It’s so personal, it is like having Alice over for a cuppa and discussing things with you and encouraging you that you can do it if you try! A must for any Coffee table.

''As someone who has been torn between wanting to be as 'natural' as can be, whilst striving to live a spiritual, peaceful life and to encourage others to do the same, I also happen to love 'nice' things such as fashion, jewelery and travel. It has often left me, like perhaps so many other women, to feel incredibly guilty and even confused for wanting those things, not knowing where we fit in and is this ok, are we bad people? Alice Grist has written an incredible book for all of 'us' confused ladies, about putting those fears at ease, whilst teaching what is truly important in life and how to seek joy and appreciation for every moment of every day. A really beautiful book, one that you will want to share with everyone you know'' ~ Anna Rodgers, Miss Eco Glam - Eco Friendly Journalist

Grab life by the antlers with Alice Grist as she takes you on a journey through the joys and pitfalls of the spiritual path. She offers important lessons as she shares her own path through thick and thin; going from a life as a typical “weekend warrior”, living just to experience the next party or high or fad, to taking a good, hard look at herself and what she wants to get out of life, and steering herself into a whole new way of being. She makes countless important points for living a truly spiritual life: in particular that being spiritual doesn’t have to mean meditating in a cave with a guru somewhere high in the Himalaya. Living spiritually means living each moment from a spiritual perspective, recognizing that the daily tasks of life can be incorporated into the spiritual experience simply by shifting one’s own perspective of life itself. Because spirit and the mysteries of the universe are all around and within us, and the universe itself is both testing and guiding us on our path. See everything in life as having a deeper meaning, even those small, supposed coincidences that nag at the back of our mind, making us wonder what’s really going on, and life itself will take on a much greater meaning and be a fuller, richer and more profound experience. Alice manages to find the balance between daily life and the greater reality beyond, and weaves them together to show the reader how to approach life in a new and exciting way. ~ Gabriel Morris, Author of Kundalini and the Art of Being

Brilliant! I could read it over and over again. Alice Grist’s High Heeled Guide to Spiritual Living is a feast for your soul! Whether this is your first look into spirituality or if you are a longtime student Alice covers all you need to know. Alice has delicious way of serving up the perfect words to feed our soul’s spiritual needs. Guiding us through this sometime bumpy road of faith, love, body-mind connection and life’s reality checks. We aren’t born with a how to guide on discovering our spirit, it’s a learn as we go kind of thing and it’s not always pretty. Alice’s vulnerability and honesty sharing her spiritual journey strikes a chord that resonates deeply with me. Her challenges and humor will validate your experiences as being spiritual even if you didn’t realize they were and this discovery will open up your soul to divine spirit that already exists within you, not something you have to go searching for. Spirituality, simplified is one way I’d describe the message of this beautiful book. This book is an important introduction for the spiritual novice and a needed reminder for those already spiritually enlightened souls. I completely relate and am grateful she’s created this guide for our spiritual living. I will use as a touchstone in my own life and as a practical reminder that in all the ups and downs, I am spirit with some humanity thrown in to keep me grounded! Alice, thank you for sharing your talented spirit with us through this incredible guide! ~ Amy Schuber, Success Coach for Women & Teen Girls, Founder, Be Inspired By You www.beinspiredbyyou.com
