Publisher's summary

Eckhart Tolle teaches a surprising form of emotional alchemy

To be human is to suffer. Whether it is brief annoyance or a life-altering cataclysm, everyone will encounter suffering - and yet, according to Eckhart Tolle, all of these painful moments contain an opportunity for awakening.

In Transforming Suffering into Peace, this celebrated teacher offers a new perspective on the ego and what he terms "the pain-body" - all the accumulated emotional wounds that follow us through life. Though the pain-body can easily rise up and hijack our consciousness with unpleasant emotions, in this program Eckhart reveals a hopeful truth - by turning the light of awareness on our suffering, that suffering becomes a powerful gateway to Presence. Join Eckhart for more than three hours of insights on how to stay present during the arising of the pain-body and how to take advantage of what is actually a potent opportunity for awakening into Presence.

Here you will learn:

• Why resentment and an inability to forgive supercharge the pain-body
• How to stay present while honoring inescapable emotions like grief
• Why some forms of suffering don't look like suffering on the surface
• How to respond to challenging situations without feeding the ego
• Why acceptance of the present moment doesn't mean passivity

In the words of Eckhart, "The less you personalize the pain you feel and associate it with a story in your head...the more quickly it becomes transmuted. It becomes fuel for your consciousness." With Transmuting Suffering into Peace, you will discover just how even our most challenging experiences can become openings to a richer and more grounded life.

Thank you, Audible!

This is wonderful, as usual for Eckhart Tolle.
Nobody can manage to bring me back to the present moment the way he does.
I recommend this to all fans of this amazing man.
He's so real. And I love his gentle humor. He reminds us to laugh at ourselves.
Fantastic book! I will listen to this again and again. (my pain body is rather large) haha

Revolving and Straight forward...

One of those books that you just can't read once, it should be referred to as often as possible.

Very Powerful and Riveting Session

I will listen to this book my more times because it has a lot to say. In my opinion , Eckhart Tolle’s teachings are deepening and becoming even more profound. He and the messages are evolving as well as those that are being drawn to his teachings.

As Always- Exactly What I Needed

clear. concise, eye and mind opening. i was fully engaged from the start. loved it!!

Very helpful to understand the painbody

I loved it. Anyone who is interested in learning more about the pain body and the ego should listen it.

Strongly recommended

This book is next level, literally next level - I’ve been awe struck several times while listening and found myself clipping and noting parts to review. And I just don’t do that kind of thing. This book, though...wow.

as always, excellent!!

Eckart takes us through the spiritual journey. his answers to those who asked was clearly helpful. anyone who is searching for the truth or just has the desire to become enlightened, should listen to this book. It is more than a five star. book.

Great Book!

I enjoyed this book thoroughly. Eckhart Tolle is a Great teacher & has a calming voice with his audio books. This helped me really understand the need of forgiveness of oneself and to see the pain I've been reliving for decades just is my ego trying to keep me from becoming my full complete self.

short but great

Human authentic and a great quick pick me up. short but good, not sure how much overlap with full book?

Thank you Eckhart!

As I listen to Eckhart I hear the familiar and the unknown and I am reminded of my true essence in this present moment. Deep out breath. Life is good. Simple. Present. Thank you
