Publisher's Summary

All you really need to do is accept the moment fully. You are then at ease in the here and now and at ease with yourself.

Throughout the spiritual classic The Power of Now are specific practices and clear keys that show us how to discover for ourselves the 'grace, ease, and lightness' that comes 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 The Power of Now that directly gives us those exercises and keys. Return to those words, 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.

Uplifting book with sleep-inducing reading

I am a great admirer of Eckhardt Tolle as a spiritual writer, and read The Power of Now years ago. This book has similar material in it, and I was glad to be reminded of these themes. However, I would have preferred it to be read by someone else. Tolle himself is not good at putting it across - I found his reading rather soporific.

Spot on

When you stop and hear what Eckhart is actually saying, it is all really quite straight forward. I feel very blessed to have found such a treasure thank you. Truly amazing piece of literature

My bible

I have this on repeat when i sit in meditation. Sometimes only for the first 15 mins, but if I don’t have any presence of moment with my practice, I’ll have it on for the full hour. Have been doing this for years.

Easy listening, engaging and full of wisdom

A truly enjoyable and rich learning experience throughout. Eckart's narration is absolutely engaging and the concepts discussed are deep; however, very easy to understand.

One of the spiritual classics of our time.

Eckhart Tolle indeed drew from a multitude of spiritual sources to create The Power of Now. But that is easily forgiven, because his work is a seamless masterpiece that overarches cultures and religions and reaches to the profound core of existence and consciousness.

The present moment is all that ever really exists. The past only exists in memories and histories. The future only ever exists as a potential.

I like the physical book version of The Power of Now. But I've found the audio version of "Practicing the Power of Now" to be better as something to listen to whilst walking or running.

It's the kind of audiobook that certainly requires more than one listen I've found. Even after perhaps 10 listens, I'm still learning from it's content with each subsequent listen.

Thank you

Thank you Eckhart Tolle. I now listen to this every day as a reminder of how easy it can be to live presently, consciously, in The Now. I play chapter 9 ritually, especially as a person living with Mental illness, it helps to get out of the head and into the soul. I'm so happy he narrated because his voice is soothing and gentle, so too is his message.

Brilliant - dying to the past, living for the now!

Eckhart is a brilliant teacher and like most of us has probably experienced great suffering to become such a great teacher - of seeing its purpose of ‘getting more present’ is of utmost benefit. Thankyou ❤️for sharing your experience

wish I had this advice years ago

It took me a while to get used to the language and concepts and I listened to a few chapters over and over again. Amazingly insightful but practical advice that I will now try to follow for the rest of my life.
