Publisher’s Summary

From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Power of Now

New World Library is the authorized publisher of Practicing the Power of Now.

The Power of Now has in a short time already proven to be one of the greatest spiritual books written in recent times. It contains a power that goes beyond words, and it can lead us to a much quieter place beyond our thoughts, a place where our thought-created problems dissolve, and we discover what it means to create a liberated life. In Eckhart Tolle’s words:

I speak of a profound transformation of human consciousness, not as a distant future possibility, but available now — no matter who or where you are. You are shown how to free yourself from enslavement to the mind, enter into this enlightened state of consciousness, and sustain it in everyday life.

Throughout The Power of Now, there are specific practices and clear keys that show us how to discover for ourselves the “grace, ease, and lightness” that come when we simply quiet our thoughts and see the world before us in the present moment.

Practicing the Power of Now is a carefully arranged series of excerpts from The Power of Now that directly give us those exercises and keys. Read this book slowly, or even just open it at random, reflect on the words, reflect even on the space between the words, and — maybe over time, maybe immediately — you’ll discover something of life-changing significance. You’ll find the power, the ability, to change and elevate not only your life, but your world as well.

It is here, now, in this moment: the sacred presence of your Being. It is here, now, not in some distant future: a place within us that always is and ever will be beyond the turmoil of life, a world of calm beyond words, of joy that has no opposite.

It is in your hands. Discover the power of Now.

What Audible Listeners Are Saying

4/5 stars — “Powerful and entertaining”
Something about the way Tolle expresses himself is so entertaining. He gets his point across by asking simple questions with obvious answers that bring to light the nonsensical ways in which we think. This book truly enriched my life, introducing me to my own life using explanations so entertaining, self evident and logical that even my very cynical and anti-spiritual German husband enjoyed listening with me.

— Shari, Audible listener

5/5 stars — “Literally life saving”
A friend recommended the original Power of Now to help me navigate the daily challenges and future uncertainties of recovery from Traumatic Brain Injury. I used to have a fast paced, high pressure life. It’s been over a year since my accident and still seemingly have nothing but “time”, but am now clearly aware if the mind jumps to past or future and the negativity that brings. “Practicing….” has now helped with further clarity. I intend to listen to it continuously. My thought processes are forever changed for the better regardless of the brain damage and uncertainties that are. I now strive to make the best of every moment of every day, whether in thought or action and am better for it all. Thank you Eckhart for teaching me to consciously manage and spiritually grow within this recovery transition.

— Kimberly, Audible listener
