Ben let this be a sign to start your own podcast in audible, I would love to listen to that.
Yes please! We are waiting!
I second this 💕
Ben you should start a podcast! You have such a natural talent to transmit emotions and thoughts, and your voice is so calm! Listening to you feels like therapy!
You and jenn are my literal online parents/mature friends. I love it 🥲
Read this book because the Curl Up Club chose it for April. I resonated a lot with being more present and recognizing that a life of abundance is already within you!
This makes me so happy! You’re completely right. X
The Power of Now changed my life ever since I’ve read it. Literally changed almost every aspect of my life and I’ve been able to enjoy life way more for years now. I enjoyed Eckhart’s other books and love that you and Jenn are into him now!!
I've wanted to read ''The Power of Now'' for a while now. Which do you think is best to read first, ''The Power of Now'' or ''A New Earth''?
@@sunnybuzzard power of now ..but u should read a new earth first I think
YESSS A BOOK RECOMMENDATION! I love when you and Jenn make content like this and would love to see you do one together one day : )
I'm a big over thinker unfortunately, but this books sound revolutionary for me!
Thanks Clarisse! We’re all over thinkers and this book helps with that so much!
Ben as soon as you talked about this book for the first time I went out and got it right away. As soon as I was leaving the bookstore with it, this gentleman bumps into me and apologizes and I keep walking. Seconds later he comes back and asks what book I bought and I tell him 'A New Earth' by Eckhart Tolle and he says, " Oh! My cousin's book". !!!! What are the chances huh? I met his cousin and we talked a lot about the book, such a crazy experience! This book is life-changing ; and hearing about it from someone just as bright as Eckhart made me have goosebumps ! Thank you for the recommendation, I made my entire family read this hahaha.
So cool you met a family member especially after purchasing your first Eckhart book-Wild!
I heavily relate to sharing his content with family members lol. What’s awesome is when I started getting the hang of having presence arise/quieting my thoughts more and more, others naturally were inquisitive. Convos tended to end up with them either buying his books or me lending a copy haha. Ripple effect 💧
Maju! This is amazing! I can't believe that happened! This is Law of Attraction in the works, you bumping into them was a sign that this book and experience is a moment of great importance to you and your family. I'm so happy you passed it onto your family too, hopefully it'll make you all closer and more connected!
@@PeaceNLiebe Love this, Caroline. I agree too, amazing things happen when people see how present you are. I never like to focus things on people but if you live by example they will come to you. Keep growing and spreading good energy and you'll live an amazing life!
I love how he speaks like a motivational speaker!
Watching you grow your channel and making it super you and genuine. It makes me so happy 😊 congrats to you and Jen on your baby and house!
Appreciate you Gemma!!
You should totally start a podcast. You have an amazing voice and incredible insight and perspective.
So amazing to see you flourish, Ben!
love this. the breakdown of the main themes of the book really inspired me to pick this book up myself. would love to hear more reviews from you in the future!
I have used Eckhart’s teachings for the last 8 years of my life and everyday I still find I’m growing. Another writer I’ve loved in tandem with Power of Now / New Earth is Tosha Silver’s ‘It’s not your money’ and ‘Outrageous Openness’ - she talks about divine abundance but does it through storytelling and it’s beautiful. I also love Krishnamurti’s videos on UA-cam about ‘Death’. He talks about how recognising we’re impermanent breaks the heavy chain to the ego which thinks it’s guaranteed to live forever. I understand Eckhart used Krishna’s works as inspiration to help him express his enlightenment experience on paper. Take care!
Love seeing you talk about things you're truly passionate about. Keep up the great work Ben!!
I've been reading the Bhagavat Geeta and I love how i'm now able to see the same topics of ego, awareness, unity, love, acceptance, etc in so many other different texts and perspectives! This video came at such a perfect time. Gonna go add the book in my cart now!
I love this book!! I read it a couple years ago, it was great to hear you break it down again! It is so important to take the daily effort to remind ourselves of the true nature of reality, so we can keep moving towards that path of love. ✨❤️
Thank you for speaking about these deeper topics!✨I love how you use your channel to spread positivity and I hope you continue making content that feels authentic and important to you. Keep it up!:)
Thank you SOO much for this recommendation! I've often come across quotes by Eckhart Tolle and always felt they deeply resonated, so I read The Power of Now, which was so incredible, and now I got A New Earth, which I will be reading after I finish The Untethered Soul! I absolutely see you having your own talk show/podcast and being some sort of mentor/coach! This video is so incredible - thanks so much Ben!!!
Yessss! Tolle’s “The Power of Now” book is changing my life. He’s so full of wisdom, his videos are also addictive!
this was such a good review! its now on the top of my books to read list
I've been staring at this book at home for so long, it's time to read it! Love your vibe and vids Ben! KEEP BEING YOU 🔥
Finally you make this video! I've been waiting for this because I'm currently reading this book and found that this book really changed my life. Although I am a little bit late but I'm saving to watch this video to watch when I needed to be reminded about awareness again. Please do more video like this!
I was looking for something just like this! I'm craving this kind of knowledge, this makes so much more sense than what society teach us when we are little, because we suddenly feel disconnected from ourselves and from others. I will surelly read this book!!! Thanks Ben. Greetings from México!
Ben this was so great! I love you chatting about spirituality, would love to see more content like this 😊
Thank you for making this video. I read "New Earth" about 1 year ago. Thanks for sharing the 5 points. I definitely can relate.
thank you for breaking down the book into bits and pieces, rly helped me understand more than i thought i did. 👍👍👍
I absolutely love this book as well!
I just ordered it...5 mins into the video. I've been looking for something to shake things up and I like what you and Jen do. So let's give it a shot!
Thanks Ben for sharing this book. I am gonna read this. Really enjoy your content!! Keep it up!!
I've written down so many notes and already feel much more connected and aware of my emotions. Thank you, Ben!:)
Love this Selma! It really doesn't take long to become aware of our thoughts, and once we do we can literally decide how to feel, decide what to think and become the best version of ourselves!
I just finished this book! Amazing video and book recommendation I can’t thank you enough 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I freaking love your videos. they just cheer me up man, Thank you!
I’m currently reading “the power of now.” can’t wait to read this next!
I read the Power of Now and that really helped me get through a bad part of my life. Just ordered this book and Im looking forward to reading it!
immediately ordered this book. thank you 🙏🏽
I really enjoy videos like these that allow us to get to know you!
Wow!! This was a great video! I want to read this book. Please do more of these!!
Thank you and please read it!!
Hey Ben - I feel just as enthusiastic about the book. Thank you for sharing your perspective, thoughts and takeaways from this book. Eckhart Tolle is amazing and what he shares creates so much impact. Hopefully I will see you at the curl up club discussion 😊💛📚📖
Stay safe and well x Btw the new home is spectacular and I am so happy for you, Jenn, Cheeky and The Little One 🏡💜
A new earth changed my life too when I read it at the start of 2018, glad you are spreading the word
It's been on my shelf since it came out so I guess it's time I read it :"D
You are such a breath of fresh air. Thank you so much for sharing - just bought!
Appreciate you for trusting me in this book. You won't be disappointed!
Ordered this book halfway through your video. can't wait to read it!
Ego is such interesting topic. I understand ego as crude voice, which try keeps you alive/safe and stopping you from new and unknown events/actions. Definitely we can profit with better lives, if we learn the difference and known which voice we should listen ether ignore
Just picked this book up and I can't wait to get into it. Great review.
Loved this Ben, I love New Earth - if you have not checked you must read The power of now by Eckhart, this is the book I read first and it's also very interesting :) Glad that you could finally find your voice on UA-cam with all of the content you shared this year, your true self shines through!
Loved 'The Power Of Now'! I read that one first and made me understand the depths and importance of being present. Eckhart is a legend!
Aaaaamazing video, just WOW!!! 🙌🏻😀❤️ Ben, thank you so much 🙏🏻
Loved this Ben. I enjoy your mindfulness chats ✨ x
Yesss!!! One of the most valuable books ever! LIFE CHANGING✨💕
Agreed! Never knew a book could be so impactful!
This book is right up up my street, adding this to my reading list! I watched this whole video nodding and agreeing with your explanations. Super stoked to see which direction your channel is heading Ben, you've combined my two passions - cooking and reading and you do it justice! Congratulations to you and Jenn on the move and becoming parents! You will be great role models for your children. Best wishes, Yan (Kent, UK)
I appreciate the kind words, Yan! Love that you understand this stuff too. I miss Kent!
I absolutely love your videos; your mindset and approach to life is beautiful. How do we handle people who give us negativity/attack us but don't have the option to avoid them?
Your energy is amazing

Thank you for this incredible video 🤍
FINALLLLYYYYYY! this is IT! i read this book a couple of years back and my perspective completely changed. an ego death was all that i needed 🤍
also, i love that the two frames in frame are so effing straight on 🙌🏽😆
Ahh this makes me so happy! Couldn't agree more, no better feeling than watching your ego leave. I just wish more people understood it!
Well Said, loved your takeaways from the book ☮️
Love the photo in the back! Good memories!
Great summary- will need to read this one! I have heard of Eckhart/watched some of his interviews but not read any of his books yet. A book that changed my life was "letting go: pathway to surrender" by David Hawkins, which also touches on themes of acceptance/ego. :)
mooooooooooooore please !!!! and thank you so much !!!!!!!
You should do something where you ask your followers topics to discuss and then on a podcast
This was super educational and helpful
That is one amazing book!!! The Power of Now is also very cool.
This is such a beautiful impactful video. Thank you.🥰
Appreciate you!
Great video. I love it.
YESSS BEN! GET THAT SPONSORSHIP ❤❤❤
Very enlightening
A wonderful read ❤️
i love this book! thanks for sharing your review :D
thank you for sharing your review! love your videos and your energy :D
Ben I like to see what your work day looks like :) bring us to your daily life :) ☺️
Totally agree with this review.... that book is 🔥
Nice recommendation!
Super interesting and inspiring😁😁
How does Ben not have 1M subscribers!??
it reminds me of Jocko's way of saying it, "Embrace the Suck"
I was debating whether I buy this or not when I saw it's available online. I'll take this as a sign that I should add it to my cart!
If that wasn't a sign then THIS IS!!! Law of attraction is in the works right now and you're going to go read that book and it WILL do wonders for you! Good luck!
You need to start a podcast. I know you are absolutely overflowing with thoughts and ideas that need to be let out into the world! As they say you’re full of beans ( preferably Heinz beans 😂 ).
This is my therapy
Despite I am not able to follow that book in my practise, I love that book. Absolutely amazing. Yesterday I did not understand when finding on the internet some book of some silly girl Lucia Canovi about "Idiocrazy of Eckhart Tolle" or what.... some people do not know how to impress the other people, so write such bullshit.
hey ben, I love that book as well. Life changing for sure. I believe you would love "super soulsunday" by Oprah ❤️
I listen to her stuff all the time, so good! Loved 'The New Earth' series she did with Eckhart too!
I would love to hear your thoughts & opinion of Sam Harris. I know Jenn meditates a lot & it inspired me to start. I use the Waking Up app by Sam Harris & it’s transformed my life. That being said, he also has a book with the same title & I think it could interest you since there are similar themes between Tolle & Harris!
I've wanted to read ''The Power of Now'' for a long time. Has anyone read both of the books and can suggest which I should read first?
I read 'The Power Of Now' first. The power of now is amazing and is all focused on the importance of being present. New Earth goes alot deeper into consciousness etc so i'd maybe start with 'Power ofNow' then New Earth will be more digestible after. Regardless, read them both and you'll live a better life!
@@HaveAGoodOne Thank you so much for taking the time to answer, Ben!
Also my favourite book. Can you recommend how to handle the fakeness of LA? Is anyone out there not controlled by egomania or jealousy?
I’m moving to England. Which town/ city is Ben from? I need a Ben 😂 not the clock obviously 🙄

first!
Has anyone who has read Tolle's books now get angry about most religions (especially Christians) as having created a false egoic god? Tolle doesn't even like the term god because it has been so misused. Tolle explains it best when he says "The eternal, the infinite, the unnameable was reduced to a mental idol that you had to believe in and worship as 'my god' or 'our god'.”. It actually gets me mad now to see how the ego has effectively monopolized "god," and it is the ego's definition that 99% of humans believe, using the bible as the only possible source. In other words, Christianity might be the most powerful trick the ego has pulled thus far. I realize now that the false egoic biblical god is one of the biggest sources for the division and suffering of human kind. It is going to take a long time before all of the world's religions dissolve and the wisdom that Tolle espouses becomes widely understood. So "A New Earth" doesn't seem like it is coming in my lifetime (maybe in my next life I will witness it if I am fortunate enough). I still love this book, and I'd rather understand the truth than be part of the rest of society that does not. But now I realize how screwed we are when I now understand that my entire family and pretty much everyone else has a false understanding of god, and they have no idea they are owned by their ego. I feel that the ego has 99.9% of humans completely in its grasp with almost no hope of escape. Tolle doesn't seem to think that's as big of a problem as I do.
Don't worry about other people. You are speaking from your ego.
It sounded like you were selling me a used car.
What if it was a very nice used car with a great price and even better milage?
Ben Jolliffe then, I would know Im getting screwed.
It seems like Eckhart Tolle truly believes what he says but unfortunately he is deeply deceived...
Your hand gestures and loud tone make it really difficult to listen to you
