===================================
To make the journey into the Now we will need to leave our analytical mind and its false created self, the ego, behind. From the very first page of Eckhart Tolle's extraordinary book, we move rapidly into a significantly higher altitude where we breathe a lighter air. We become connected to the indestructible essence of our Being, “The eternal, ever present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are subject to birth and death.” Although the journey is challenging, Eckhart Tolle uses simple language and an easy question and answer format to guide us.
A word of mouth phenomenon since its first publication, The Power of Now is one of those rare books with the power to create an experience in readers, one that can radically change their lives for the better.

I used to take Adderall for ADHD but when I read the The Power of Now I was able to be present and not identify with ADHD. Once I began meditating and cultivating presence it became an addictive feeling haha and now I don't take Adderall I just meditate every morning when I wake up and it has had a transformative effect on me. Highly recommend reading it. Great review bro. Happy to see the range of books you review.
+Aaron Doughty That's awesome, man! Congrats!!
+Aaron Doughty when do you meditate? I find myself really sleepy like 1 hour after waking up.
you're a fool
Hi, your comment attracted my attention, do you have a prove?
Bs. You took drugs and by reading a book you manage to stay present. Thats bs.
power of now is one of the most powerful life transforming book written.
For anyone try this tip: There is another book by Eckhart called: Practicing The Power Of Now, in form of Audiobook...listen to it as a form of active meditation when you wake up, listen 20 minutes each day and again and again, soon you'll be living more and more what it says in the book, as when i read it several times it didn't have the "Power" of what it is now, and everytime i listen to it, it reinforces everything...it REALLY makes a difference and it doesn't turn into a "forgotten" book. Credit to Greg O'Gallagher from Kinobody. Have a great day!
Great tip. Thank you brother
+Seba Spinelli Thanks a lot man :)
I'll try that. Thanks man!
sounds like a good tip. Do you still practice it?
It's weird, because I just read this comment and it's been a week that I started listening to audio book in a form of meditation. Every night I listen to approximately 30 - 40 minutes of an audiobook while meditating on my bed. Not only it's very good for the mind but after that you sleep so much easier. I'm actually listening to the audiobook of the power of now by eckart Tolle, i'm at chapter 5.
The Power of Now is one of my favorite books ever. I now follow Eckhart Tolle's UA-cam channel and I recently sent my brother (who is in jail) the paperback version. My bro said the book helps him deal with his stressful environment and also makes him appreciate the little things he had in life.
Great review!
This is the book that got rid of my depression and helped me so much more to understand about emotions and how certain feelings come up and it's all coming from your thoughts brainwashing yourself to think positively even if you don't feel like it actually can have strong impact. Great review :)
Classic, first time I read this it was so hard lol Second time it made a lot more sense. It's one of those books we need to re-read every year.
+Mario Tomic Yep, definitely!
There’s just so much pseudoscientific horse shit in it, you have to keep rereading it in order to overcome your common sense.
Resentful ✔️
Deceitful ✔️
Arrogant ✔️
The Power of Now changed my life. It woke me up and spoke to me unlike any other book I've ever read. I highly recommend it to all. Great vid!
agreeeee

Simplicity at its finest, thanks bro
+JulienHimself Concern I have, By according to that philosophy, you don't need go out and talk to woman. How do u solved this for yourself, Julien?
+Vh Ambr Lol, you don't "need" to do anything... The question is, what do you WANT to do? You can still go out and talk to women, but it's now coming from a different place... ---> You're doing it because you want to do it, NOT because you need to do it, in order to feel "complete", or to feel like you're enough... ;)
+Jaime Vega Thanks for watching!
+JulienHimself Yeah man, when youre doing something because youre empty and trying to fill that hole, its called need. You can take the exact same action from a place of being emotionally complete vis a vis expression
I've never heard him speak in a quiet environment, but it really draws you in.
i recently finished listening to the audiobook. my mind refused to read it because it never seemed to stay focused on it. i went to the lake near my house and listened to all 7 hrs of the book, and i experienced the most intense state of being. the moment he talked about the ducks, I kinda woke up, they were there in the water just naturally chilling, the ducks dont have an ego.. its a deep book. i will come back to it very soon.
Wow, great job breaking it down. i read the Power of NOW in 2004 and it blew me away. i love how you you said in 6:05 the two you's, "The thinker and the I AM"
Julien I swear you come up with the perfect videos at the perfect time.
nice pic!
+Jorge van Burgos Thanks!

+Mrr Trollius thanks man, I hope it's true.
“If you get the inside right, the outside will fall into place.” Great Book
This is one of the most influential books ever written. Love every word of it. It has impacted many people!
This was one of my beginner books of spirituallity and actually know after 2 an a half years later, also after extreme amounts of new experiences and books that i read, i can say that this is one of the best generally. Its all in one book.
Easily in my top 5 uploads you've given us! Perfect summary of one of my favorite books. Thank you!
+Motivation Music Thanks for watching!! ;)
one of my favorite books -this has gotten me sooooo far. Thank you for areviee
+John Knudsen a review
+John Knudsen You're welcome! :)
I'm so glad you did this book video. First time I read it I was in a bookstore, and when I left the store I felt like everything was different when I walked outside. Everything even looked, felt and sounded different once I was walking down the street. Crazy book.
I think I'm already at this state a lot of times because of your Letting Go
I can see that my mind is sooooo silent, after being an overthinker for years man
And I feel the best time for me is (now)
when i started reading Power of Now , initially it was frightening to accept the truth about mind creating thoughts and emotions running our lives and this phrase "You are not your mind!!!" but gradually this book transformed me & my thinking about life and relationships.
First class video. Perhaps the most important book summary to date as the mind really is our own worst enemy. Everyone will be served well to practice these techniques daily and take back control. Julien is clearly extremely intelligent and summarises these books phenomenally well.
Thanks for adding to the energy toward Awareness and Presence in us. I'm new to this understanding and appreciate your thoughts.
Love Eckhart tolle and you for explaining this in simplicity you made my day. Thankyou Thankyou
Julien, this is awesome! This book was a huge revelation for me. I like how you so succinctly broke down this book into easily digestible pieces. Great.
Woah, that's so funny you just uploaded this video. I'm actually just re-reading this book for the 2nd time during the past week or two. Almost done now. It was the first book I ever picked up when I got into self development after discovering RSD. I've been feeling a little out of place this past month, so I thought I'd pick it up again. So glad to see you reviewing it. It has had such a tremendous shift in me. Time to watch the video now!
@Hansol I see u my man! My boy Hansol out here killin it with the self development. I’m also currently reading the book, and it’s very interesting.
After considering buying the Power of Now for a while, this video is what convinced me to actually do so a while back. The impact of just the book alone has been really helpful in the early stages of becoming more aware. I'm guessing the audiobook of Practicing the Power of Now would be a logical next step since I've stopped making progress for a while. I keep falling back into old habits and feeling a bit less alive. Thanks for making these videos bro, you're a true inspiration on many life lessons
Didn't even see you made a video about this book. Just finished it a week ago and it's great. I highly recommend the audiobook for people too especially if you have trouble reading. It's like having your own personal guru in your head helping you separate your mind from yourself. Life changing stuff.
LOVE it! Great review of my favorite book. Julien just after watching this I felt more conscious and am grateful for that. During the video I Noticed my mind drift into the future but brought it back and same with the past. Watched it and got reminded of the great truths of this tremendous book. This pulled me to the presents so powerfully and I will carry this good energy into the day.Much Love
Great content, Julien ! The insight I get from you is amazing. Thank you for all you do!!
Thanks a ton Julien! You made my biggest flaw clear which was thinking too much/labelling the present moment as opposed to experiencing it. My mind is afraid of letting go and constantly trying to get in through the back door. However I'm becoming more present on a daily basis. Still feels weird as it's only in the past few years that I really got in touch with my deeper self but I've just got to continue to be aware. When I become aware I usually put my hand on my chest (tip from an Elliot Hulse video) like a mantra and feel my presence deepen. Fantastic video which really nails the essential parts of The Power Of Now.
The knowledge in this video opened my eyes. I had so many realizations during this video, thank you so much.
KKKKNNNNAAAAWWWWGGGEEEEE
KKKKNNNNAAAAWWWWGGGEEEEEDr
Love how passionate you are! Awesome book
What a beautiful explanation... Love u.. I'm in tears
Keep up the Good work Julien, I Think you savning my life! Millions of thanks!
This was an amazing book! I bought it about a year ago when I heard about it from Elliott Hulse, but I didn't read it. I didn't "feel ready." Well, after a personal tragedy, the peaceful realization that it was just a course-correction sign, and much more diving into spiritual mastery, I decided to actually read it. For the first time, I've read a book in a state of presence. I held a breathing practice while reading it. I didn't feel my 'regular' resistance; no standing up, no flipping to the end of the book to see how many pages there are, no looking down at the page number while I was reading. Read in under 24 hours total, including many meditation sessions during the reading.
I find it hard to recommend this book. I feel you have to have a certain exposure to meditation before you really engage, and even though I've done years on and off, plus a year of regular meditation, 6 months ago I would have had not internalized the message but sort of dismissed it as, "sure this is obvious," or, "what freaking language is this even written in?"
Excited to read it again in ~6 months :) Cheers.
Awesome as always, Thanks Julien
+Keiron Boswell agree! this book is great too!
I've been in this state of peace for some time, but it's impressive the strenght that the old bad behavior have to come back worst than before... Now i'm getting back to be depressive and have low confident and now i have to rebuild everything up again... Ty Julien, for your work. I'm trying to be more present and less linked to the outside the Now. Sorry for my english.
Great break down of the book thank you
Why I have heard this so late. Wasted life in thinking and thinking and thinking about trivial things. Hyperactive thinking. Thanks a lot!!
for me, it helps to think of the mind as simply a tool. there are times where it needs to be quieted and times where it can help with things such as creativity and problem solving.
It's crazy how you cram so much into one video, everything you said seemed to be exactly what I needed to hear. Definitely need to give this book a read! Thanks a lot Julien, another life changing video! :)
Appreciate the time and effort put into these summaries, thanks man!
Great Work!
Best review ever!!!! Thank you very much.
Best book i ever read , no exaggeration
great video, watched today further :)
it's interesting to see how you evolve over time, from a pua to life/peak performance coach to enterprenur. there's lots of misconceptions about you that need to be clarified. keep it up with good work. I really like to see how you see things, not just women but the world.
Amazing value, thank you so much for providing valuable content week in week out Julien 😊
+Amit Midha You're welcome! Thanks for watching my videos!!!
WONDERFULL TEACHINGS !!! Really the same from Gnostic teachings left by the V.M. Samael Aun Weor. This is the real way to reach the self knowledge.
Peace and Light
Thanks julien you are the great of the greatest.
My favorite book review so far Keep it up J.B!
+Steve Doyle Thanks!
Simple.... yet AWESOME!
read the book, this recap is of a great value - easily digestible and everything is here, good refreshment of tolle's ideas, thanks!
God bless, bro! Great job!
For some reason when I focus on the inner body there is peace but I also start becoming super fearfull and anxious I already have anxiety disorder and this practice gives me a panic attack its scared me away from the power of now..
Im so glad so glad I found your channel. Iv'e read some of the books you were explaining. I like the way you explain it. It's clear and not boring and very specific. The examples are great too! Good job! Thank you!
Julian's on fire!! Keep it up! These vids really help!
Great explanation, perfectly all make sense. I read it first time in jan. 2016 and it transform my life. It's kind of funny and misery at the same time how much we are addicted to our mind and how simple the true freedom and power is. Always NOW, HERE. What ever problem you have, it is in the future or in the past, or you watching now through some hidden mental label, concept what ever. It's that simple. And when you free yourself from the mind, you free yourself from everything else, it's the hardest battle to conquer yourself, ''know thyself''. You dont have religion to tell this, nothing against it but only You can free yourself.
This book is full of great wisdom for those able to read outline, feel and think. To read over and over again.
Great work Julien thanks for the great advice :D I really appreciated it
I just wanted to say thank you.
You are great julien. This book is based on realism phillosophy
Thanks Julien for this awesome video ! cheers
Excellent extraction of the key points of the book!
Thank you. You are awsome.
Great video Julien. If you have time to read this much, it should not be a problem for me. I recommend audiobooks for people who have problems with sitting down and reading.
Thank you Julien, great presentation! :)
Observation and understanding is the key to this process. By understanding the mechanics of our minds, we can allow the transformation to happen. The "main beliefs" that we are identified with colors our whole experience of life and these beliefs are always trying to reinforce themselves through "evidence" which is just more illusion to add into the mix.
As Julien points out, the identification with the mind and its beliefs is what holds it all together. So that link must be broken, although to acheive that is not always easy as our minds are highly creative with coming up with arguments as to why to hold on to our present structures. We must be patient with this process, and understand that it is also an energetic process.
Thank you so fucking really very much, Julien! I just don't know how else I can convey my gratitude for your introducing this amazing book to me! Thank you again!
Fantastic plain and simple. Keep going. Can you do a video about the Ego what it is exactly. Thanks again
thank you i understand it more now
what is also important, tolle mentioned this also in the book, is that the pain-body has momentum. so it won't be gone after u were one time fully present to it. but it will be gone with time. but it should not rly matter if it goes or not, cause from a observer percpective it doesn't hurt you.
Im actually reading this now, i find it definitely worth the read.
just started reading it 3 days ago, I'm allready feeling improvement. It's awesome
Watching this video made me realize something I do when watching just about any given video on here: I get in and out of my mind. I don't know how I do it though.
Just got the book reading it NOW
Hi. First, thanks for your work. I love it. Second, nice that I can see we share some reading experience. I read the P. O. N. - it's great you bring it up.
your style changed, like your new videos :)
amazing healing words julien.
Thank you so much for this detaile video
You’re very welcome!
thanks for the video Mr. Blanc!!!!
I find that ever since I read the book and started being mindful, their is like a delay between my thoughts and them affecting me. Meditation is bizarre, it's how meditation and being the "now" can change how happy you are, like you said I used to think being "happy" was these extremely crazy highs (video games, wanking off, watching pointless videos) but in reality being happy is much subtler than that, it's a consistent feeling and and doesn't fluctuate like those crazy highs did, there is much less "yo-yo" action gonna on internally my state is more stable and less affected by external and internal factors, it comes down to realizing you are not your thoughts, emotions or feelings inside your body. I used to think "I am angry" now I don't, it's just a feeling happening inside the body I reside in and doesn't have to affect my true self.
I am only a month into this currently meditate for 22 minutes a day (I go up by 2 mins/week) and it's been amazingly positive. Anyway great video I hoped you would talk about Echart Tolle and his book thank you for making it.
Thanks so much
Awesome man love u for this😊
thanks for breaking it down julien, another awesome video; thanks!
Nice review Julien!
Although I think that "The new earth" is more organized, this book was a great start for me. Reading it was really a transformational experience, as he says, instead of being about accumulation of more knowledge.
Best explanation ever..
Excellent sound quality.
Naidled it.
Lifechanging book... if you let it.
Thanks again Julian!
beutifully said
one of the best books of humanity
One of the best books ever printed.
so weird I just finished this book today and loved it it's one of those books I'll aways go back to cause there's so much information In it good stuff julien
Nice man! You can get into the flow really well!
I read this book years ago ... I thought I needed to pick it up again just to recap... But I found your clip... Just brilliant thank you...Irene from Ireland 🌺
Thanks for watching, Irene! :)
Great summary. thank you
Love your stuff
I recommend "Byron Katie - Loving what is", "Beck/Cowan - Spiral Dynamics", "Peter Levine - In an unspoken voice".
as an orientation: the first one is best compared to Tolle with influences of Epicet and NLP. The second one just has to be read. One of the best maps there is. Last one goes more in the direction of bodywork/bioenergetics. It's really great.
❤❤❤❤ thanks it's is very impotant
Too good.. sums up everything
