Join Eckhart Tolle for eight sessions of practical guidance in transforming a “problematic” life through the power of Presence.

Why does it seem so difficult to experience inner peace, a quiet mind, and a resistance-free alignment with the deeper movement of life? Even if for just a few moments now and then?

All of our problems and dilemmas, explains Eckhart Tolle, are rooted in the noisy, unobserved thinking mind—and the “little me” we take ourselves to be. So how do you transcend the limits of this mind-made self, and actually experience firsthand the freedom and happiness that Eckhart’s teachings point us toward?

You do this by discovering the essential self—or who you are beyond mental concepts and unexamined beliefs.

Discovering the Essential Self includes:

Session One

Eckhart invites you to “start with stillness,” let go of unnecessary suffering, and rise above the egoic self

Session Two

Learn how to see through the delusion of the mind-made identities we trap ourselves in and awaken from “spiritual sleep”

Session Three

Drawing on his signature metaphor of “the ripple and the ocean,” Eckhart points us to the timeless vastness of Being that is our most essential nature

Session Four

Eckhart discusses the primacy of the present moment and how what we do should never take precedence over how we do it

Session Five

Discover a world that is intensely alive—and the formless realm that makes it all possible

Session Six

An invitation to the “vertical dimension” to reclaim consciousness from thought and remain open to the fullness of the Now

Session Seven

Learn to work with your physical form as a gateway to a fully embodied experience of Presence

Session eight

Eckhart reveals how we can accelerate our journey of awakening through a new understanding of the challenges we face
