I just finished one of the best books I’ve ever read. That is saying a lot!

Eckhart Tolle’s masterpiece “The Power of Now” is an eye-opening, life changing novel. I have described my spirituality as a gradual process in this life. In other articles I wrote, I tell of my time growing up in the Christian faith, and how I decided that as a young adult organized religion was ‘not my cup of tea’.

From meeting different people and healers, like my friend Anna Holden, I have learned that “I am a spiritual being having a human experience” instead of the other way around. Through Anna’s workshops, I learned about being a Highly Sensitive Person, and how to manage my sensitivity with different ‘tools’ she taught me. Anna also helped me understand energy healing and intuition, along with the fact that “I am not my emotions”.

Then I moved to Europe and met my friend Daniel Eder. He helped me heal with some spiritual healing massages and is actually how I came across Eckhart Tolle. Check out his informative YouTube Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYXTsoJ36ul67pXbVzqSClA

After reading “The Power of Now”, I have learned that I am Being. I am not my mind (ego). I am not my body. And that when I am truly present in this moment/the Now, I am free!

No more holding on to the past. No more anticipating the future. Allowing what is to just be.

I highly recommend this book.
