Details Condition: BRAND NEW Format: Paperback ISBN: 9780340733509 Publisher: Hodder Paperbacks Overview The Power of Now is Eckhart Tolle's landmark guide to living fully in the present moment. Written in accessible, conversational language, it explains how habitual over-identification with thought creates unnecessary suffering, and offers a practical path towards stillness, clarity and inner peace. Since its first publication this bestselling paperback has become a modern spiritual classic, read and recommended across the globe, including by Oprah Winfrey, who has spoken of the profound impact the book had on her outlook. About the Book Structured as a series of questions and answers, The Power of Now guides readers away from the constant chatter of the analytical mind and towards a quieter, more grounded way of being. Eckhart Tolle draws on his own experience of a profound personal transformation to explain how the "ego" sustains itself through past regret and future anxiety, and how recognising this pattern is the first step to freedom from it. Rather than offering abstract theory, the book sets out simple, repeatable practices for noticing thought, releasing tension in the body, and returning attention to the present moment. Chapters build steadily from an explanation of the mind's habits through to practical guidance on applying presence to relationships, work, pain and everyday life. The tone throughout is calm, direct and free of jargon, making complex spiritual ideas approachable for readers with no prior background in meditation or philosophy. This paperback edition presents the complete text in a durable, easy-to-carry format, ideal for reading at home, on a commute, or as a bedside companion. It remains one of the most widely read works in the personal development and spirituality genre, valued equally by newcomers to mindfulness and long-term practitioners. Clear, jargon-free explanations of presence and mindfulness suitable for complete beginners. Practical exercises to help quieten repetitive thought patterns and reduce anxiety. Real-world guidance for relationships, work and everyday emotional challenges. A compact, durable paperback that's easy to carry and return to for daily practice. One of the bestselling spirituality and self-help titles of the past three decades. About the Author Eckhart Tolle is a German-born spiritual teacher and author who now lives in Canada.
