Book Reviews of Practicing the Power of Now: Essential Teachings, Meditations, and Exercises from The Power of Now
Book Review: good for beginners
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this version a bit simple after reading the power of now, but I gave it to my son who is 23 and has a depression problem. He had previously tried to read power of now and just could not quiet his mind enough to accept it. He has found this simpler version much easier to read when he is depressed and has depressed thoughts going round and round. He has now graduated to the power of now which he was originally very cynical about. It really helped him to calm down and observe his thoughts. I am ordering another copy so I have it for other friends with anxiety issues and they might find the full vesion too overwhelming and almost quasi-religious, off-putting for a newbie. I love Eckhart's truth as I have been there too and know it is possible. This book has its place!

Summary of Practicing the Power of Now: Essential Teachings, Meditations, and Exercises from The Power of Now
In The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle shared the enlightenment he himself experienced after a startling personal transformation. This book extracts the essence of his teachings about how to free oneself from enslavement to the mind. His views go beyond any particular religion, doctrine, or guru. The goal is to be able to enter into and sustain an enlightened state of consciousness throughout everyday life. Through meditations and simple techniques, Eckhart shows readers how to quiet their thoughts, see the world in the present moment, and find the truest path to happiness.This manual-style book instantly dives into Eckhart Tolle's principles of "living in the moment," which could be a jarring experience for readers who haven't read his preceding book, The Power of Now. For the initiated, though, this makes an excellent companion guide--rich in exercises and meditations to help readers get out of their minds so they can live more peacefully in their bodies. Sometimes it's hard to fathom what on earth Tolle is talking about: "To regain awareness of Being and to abide in that state of 'feeling-realization' is enlightenment." Be patient. All concepts will be revealed (or at least more carefully explained). Ultimately, Tolle leads readers into a new form of thinking (or actually not thinking) that erases the consuming habits of waiting, worrying, and being in fear. The first step is ending the "delusion of time." He asks, "Are you always trying to get somewhere other than where you are? ... Is most of your doing just a means to an end?" If so, Tolle has a book full of advice for you. As simplistic as this may sound, Tolle's work has spiritual merit and depth, especially for frantic Westerners who find their lives diminished by packed schedules and busy-ness. --Gail Hudson
