Guidance for Life on Earth
Teachings and Practices from Inner Guides
Guidance for Life on Earth is a series of books written in cooperation with what Stephen experiences as inner guides, who describe themselves as multidimensional beings not focussed in physical form. The books present the guides’ perspective on our world, and why we are here. Their intention is to support us in living our lives very differently and in creating a different world.
In Book One, Reality, Humans and the Earth, the Earth is framed as a plane of experimentation. What we understand as reality is a reflection of our inner state, mirroring the consciousness we choose to embody. Our primary purpose in life is to discover who or what we might be, and any difference we wish to make in the world needs to begin deep inside us.

In Books Two and Three, Being Human, Being World (Parts 1 and 2), we’re invited to explore the world as a process rather than as a place. We’re shown how we ‘world’, as a verb, how what we perceive as the condition of our world, and as the problems and crises of our world, are effects of choices that we are making, and how we may choose and act through greater awareness of ourselves and of the nature of our reality. We discover the vast scope of our work together, as we explore those inner worlds which we are each here to bring into manifest form.
We’re reminded that we aren’t here to try to put right whatever we believe is wrong with our world. In the midst of the collapse of much that we know, we’re here to bring and embody a consciousness that is transformative of our lives on all levels. A consciousness that is available and waiting within us. We are guided, through the books, to open to our unlimited potentials and untapped sensitivities, to our capacity for love and deep relatedness, and to our own inner wisdom-streams.
There is also a shorter companion volume, called The World You Wish To Bring Into Being, where a wide variety of themes are explored, including perspectives on health, relationships, evolution and alternate human cultures.
All the books are available online from Amazon, some in paperback and hardcover format, where you can also read extracts. Find the books on most Amazon sites by clicking the button below.
What Readers are Writing
“This book is the answer for the evolutionary moment I know we are in, bless you for the courage to bring this into the world.”
“In an epiphany moment, I could clearly sense that these books are much more than I can imagine. They are huge. They will change lives and with this will change humanity.”
“More of a continuous prayer than a book. Thank you for your dedication.”
“A palpable transmission of love.”
“A journey of transformation, not a quick fix self-help guide or book of philosophy. A sequence of practices which accelerate what used to take a lifetime of dedicated practice from a wisdom tradition.”
“The book invites a slow reading, often interceded with long moments of stillness and silence, which allow a wide range of altered states of consciousness to arise. This material empowers me, transforms me.”
“My experience as I read the book is of me in present time, while the understanding that is coming to me from the book is both ancient and futuristic, understandings outside of time.”
“This is a living book. It speaks what we need to hear or feel in that moment. I feel the words are alive, limitless pointers.”
“The book is transformative, powerful and precise; its impact unexpected and intense, challenging and clearing, allowing me to step evermore into a freer self.”
“Not a book but pure loving energy, limitlessly potent.”
“I feel a strong transmission which sparkles and dances with something deep inside and all around me. It glows with a subtle intensity that radiates out and infuses my whole being. This book, these words – a gift for humanity. It is life saying Welcome Home.”
“For those who want to look behind the veil, to take a loving look at their patterns and beliefs and, by immersing yourself in these words, changing to a new way of being in the world.”
“To be slowly, carefully and intimately engaged with. The book has led to explorations of previously unknown territory and opened a vision for evolving into a future beyond my imagination.”
“Things I know or think I know are presented with a clarity and a depth that is becoming my own. This is not a book to read, but a book to wake you up, to show you who you really are.”
Working with the Books
Guidance for Life on Earth is much more than a series of books, and the books are much more than simply for reading. They are tools for working with, or practicing the teachings, so that these become integrated and embodied in us, as a way of life, as a world different to that which we know. The guides’ intention is that the practices be explored between people, or ‘practice partners’, in pairs, and in small and larger group configurations.

As the books are published, Stephen’s intention is to host an online space to which readers may subscribe. He will offer regular online sessions there, and you will meet others who are ready to engage more deeply with the materials, practicing together in creative ways to explore and apply the principles in your everyday life.
The next online practice space is available now, more information is here:
