In This Free Video Series, You Will Discover:

VIDEO #1

“Releasing Mental Clutter”

Whether it’s the line at the grocery store, waiting to board a plane, or even on a first date, these days it’s rare to find people doing absolutely nothing, says Eckhart Tolle. Join him in video #1, “Releasing Mental Clutter,” for liberating insights on:

  • Overcoming the urge to “fill the moment with stuff” (including thoughts)
  • The practice of sitting quietly
  • Letting go of the compulsion to constantly be “doing something”

VIDEO #2

“Using Our Devices with Presence”

Technology is neither good nor bad; it’s neutral, explains Eckhart Tolle. It all depends on how we use it. In video #2 in our free miniseries, he shares wise advice on the use of our various digital accessories, including how we interact with others online.

Here, Eckhart discusses: 

  • The practice of conscious and respectful communication 
  • The potential of meditation apps and other online content to help declutter the mind
  • Setting boundaries around when and where you use your devices

VIDEO #3

“The Art of Hurrying Slowly”

Many people assume that to be present requires that we move slowly or methodically. Yet Eckhart Tolle assures us that we can learn to do things quickly and yet remain present at the same time. In the Zen tradition, this is sometimes called the art of “hurrying slowly.”

In video #3 in our free miniseries, Eckhart explains more about this counterintuitive approach when you need to “step on it!” as the saying goes. Tune in as he shares insights on:

  • Enjoyment—a clear indicator that you’re present
  • Stress—a clear indicator that you’re not!
  • Bringing your full attention to “one thing at a time”
  • Countering the temptation to resist what is in favor of where you need to get

VIDEO #4

“Connecting with Source”

When was the last time you looked at a flower? Really looked, that is. In the fourth video in Eckhart Tolle’s miniseries From Distraction to Presence, he shares an informal and delightful practice to help “tune in to stillness” by meditating on a beautiful flower.

Give a watch as Eckhart shares an effortless approach to:

  • Let go of thinking and simply be present
  • Experience a felt sense of connection to the source of life itself
  • Acknowledge the beauty that surrounds us without needing to name or label things
