Many of us spend our time either trapped in the regret-filled past or anxious about a future we cannot hope to control. Yet at the same time we also cling to the hope that we can somehow improve our lives, become happier and find enlightenment, even though we have no clear idea of how to do so.

Enter The Power of Now, in which bestselling author and renowned spiritual guide Eckhart Tolle provides readers with several methods for navigating the complex terrain of their inner lives and their relationships to the past, present and future.

At the heart of Tolle’s (very practical) philosophy is an emphasis on living in the present moment as a way to avoid most of the pain that we usually experience. To this end, the book focuses on the connection between the mind and suffering, offering a variety of perspectives on the numerous self-destructive ways that we use our minds – for example, to trap ourselves in cycles of suffering and stop ourselves from being happy.

The Power of Now has helped millions of people to improve their lives, including their relationships with others, and, crucially, to increase their sense of self-esteem and fully engage with their lives.

Key insights:

How can I make my life better?

• By focusing only on the present – and ignoring the past or future – you can greatly improve your life.

• A part of you needs pain to survive, and it creates most of the pain you experience.

What is the connection between mind and suffering?

• The “ego” is a part of your mind that stops you from being happy.

• If you want a richer and almost painless life, separate yourself from your mind and focus on your body.

• Observing the mind without judgement is the best way to separate from it, and thus free yourself from pain.

• Try to exist in a state of permanent alertness.

What effect will this have on my life?

• Living in the present can be hard for your partner, but it can also improve your relationship.

• Not all pain is avoidable: surrendering to the present does not mean ignoring sad or hurtful feelings.

• Surrendering to the present does not mean living a passive life.
