Publisher's summary

To make the journey into The Power of Now you need to leave your analytical mind and its false created self, the ego, behind. Access to the Now is everywhere - in the body, the silence, and the space all around you. These are the keys to enter a state of inner peace. They can be used to bring you into the Now, the present moment, where problems do not exist. It is here you find your joy and are able to embrace your true self. It is here you discover that you are already complete and perfect.

Although the journey is challenging, Eckhart Tolle offers simple language in a question and answer format. The words themselves are the signposts to guide you on your journey. There are new discoveries to be made along the way: you are not your mind, you can find your way out of psychological pain, authentic human power is found by surrendering to the Now. When you become fully present and accepting of what is, you open yourself to the transforming experience of The Power of Now.

Worth listening to until.

This was a huge eye-opener! The subject matter clarified "gut" feelings I've had my entire life. This was and is one of the most interesting lessons ever encountered. Thanks, Mr. Tolle!!!

Incredible.

I went in thinking it was just another highly rated self help book but the message is far deeper and more impactful than anything I've read before.

Peace & Serenity

I had heard very good things about this book and now that I have experienced it for myself I can honestly say that it surpasses all that I have heard about it. It goes over questions that I have thought about constantly. I highly recommend it.

Great book, especially chapter 8 on relationships!

Enjoyed listening to the author read this. Chapter 8 on relationships is what you should listen to if you only listen to one chapter.

This book will cause a profound shift in how you view reality

This was an excellent book that explains so well why it is important to focus on the now. I realised that I spent most of my time in the past or future; no wonder I am filled with frustration most of the time. This book teaches you HOW and WHY you should focus on the now. I highly recommend this book to those of us who spend a lot of time in our minds playing scenarios of the future or replaying unpleasant past experiences.
