Excellent meditations and advice on living the power of now.

I highly recommend it for Eckhart Tolle fans.

[Paulskim · Rating 3 out of 5]

The book consists of short essays so any chapter can be read as standalone because ultimately the message is repetitive. It is a good motivation to live in the now and to be aware that our thoughts can be our worst enemy for preventing us to appreciate life as it is.

Quotes:
''The world experienced through the lens of the ego is an illusion.'' ''...When we are present to life as it is happening, our experience is full, peaceful, happy, and content.''

The first fourth or so of her books are interesting. From there her thinking gets circular.
