The second-ever Manifest Book Club is here! This episode is on The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle. Tori is joined by Jennifer Saulino in today’s bonus episode of Manifest with Tori DeSimone. The Power of Now takes what we learned in The Untethered Soul and applies it to our daily lives. We hope you loved this episode and book as much as we did! 


The Power of Now by Ekhart Tolls: https://bit.ly/3MbL6Vu  


Questions:

  1. “The Power of Now” proposes that the present moment is all we truly have. How did this concept resonate with you, and how do you interpret it?
  2. Eckhart Tolle identifies the mind as both the enemy and the vehicle to enlightenment. Can you share your thoughts on this paradox?
  3. How has “The Power of Now” changed your perception of time—past, present, and future?
  4. Tolle suggests that suffering stems from our identification with our minds. Did this resonate with you? Have you noticed instances in your life where this might be the case?
  5. Tolle refers to the ‘Now’ as a portal to our eternal, indestructible essence. How do you interpret this concept?
  6. How did Tolle’s teachings on ‘presence’ and ‘Now’ influence your day-to-day life?
  7. These 3 quotes are forms of meditation and presence which we know is the key to enlightenment. 
  8. 1. “Close your eyes and pay attention to your breath. Now picture yourself in a room filled with light and start to breath in that light and bring it into your body and just focus on bringing the light in with breath.”

    2. “Close your eyes and start with your toes working your way up going through each body part and really paying attention to each body part. What it feels like, what its touching, everything.”

    3. “Think “I wonder what my next thought will be” and as you wait you will be thoughtless and can slowly go into the now.”

    How do you implement and practice meditation in your day-to-day life?
