lowercasegravy Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 If you haven't already, I really recommend reading The Power Of Now by Eckhart Tolle. I'm not one for being spiritual but it has really given me enlightenment. This book resonated with me and my breakup, and has helped me recover from my depressing thoughts by living in the present moment and letting go of the past. I'm only a few chapters in and I've already felt true happiness. So I thought I'd share this to anybody trying to cope with depression or stress 2
TaraMaiden2 Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 Thank you. "The Power of Now" is one of the most recommended books to read, on this forum. I think repeating the recommendation is an opportune thing... I can never get enough of that book.
Author lowercasegravy Posted October 6, 2015 Author Posted October 6, 2015 Ah I didn't realize how popular the book was on this forum already. But I'm glad I can bring attention to this book for those who haven't read it already 1
Michelle ma Belle Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 LOVE the book and have read it multiple times

But I'm glad I can bring attention to this book for those who haven't read it already I think it may well be one of the most powerful books written in the last century. It was first published in 1997. The other book I would venture to suggest, that had a similar impact was "The Tibetan Book of Living & Dying" (1992) the message of which traverses all religions and speaks right to the heart of the reader. 1
Chronograph Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 In the first weeks and months after my breakup I wouldn't have survived without that book!!
Cora Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 I'm about to download that book now. I could really use some uplifting. Thanks for the recommendation! 1
