The Power Of Now Book Club #1

I am using this book with the focus on weight loss. Weight loss starts with ur mind being clear and prepared. This book will prepare and help train your mind for weight loss, joy, happiness and peace. This vlog covers the things I highlighted up to page 12 that I found profound. Post your thoughts, via comment or video response.And if you don't own a copy of this book I recommend you get one.

Here are the things I highlighted from the beginning to page 12- page number and quote

1st page unnumbered -"inability of humans to free themselves from dominance by the mind and live in the present is the root cause for misery in the world"

xiv "inner body awareness, the sense of freedom that comes from letting go of self identification with one's personal history"

xv "inner peace that arises as one learns to relinquish mental/emotional resistance to the "suchness" of the present moment.

p8 "knower in you who dwells behind the thinker, .... gains strength from it"

p9 "The mind always wants to categorize and compare"

p12 "true wealth, which is the radiant joy of Being and the deep, unshakable peace that comes with it"

This book is great to work on staying in the present moment and enjoying the present moment. So important because I've noticed that when I am focusing on the past and future too much that I will sabotauge myself and emotionally eat. Staying in the here and now ... seems to really help me emotionally because all that matters is what I am doing here and now ... THANKS SO MUCH for doing this book club. I will be following along ... YOU ROCK!

Thanks again for posting this...check the book out that I am reading tomorrow.

Sharon... love your videos but with the smoke alarm beeping (which has been in at least your last three videos) and the buzzing sound, it is impossible to watch.

It seems like she is.. haha.. she has her toy to high level.. haha

over-eating is the same problem as any addiction__there is a perceived lack inside. That sense of lack IS the ego. Uncover the ego and the desire to over-eat will vanish. Smoking too.

the power is in watching the thinker, observing yr thoughts, when junk food enters yr mind, creating the impulse to act on the thought, you know understand you are not yr thoughts, you are not yr mind, you simply smile at the thought & go about your day, being totally present. in the moment eg: "when you wash your hands, pay attention to all the sense perceptions associated with the activity: the sound & feel of the water, the movement of your hands, the scent of the soap, and so on." :)

much gratitude for sharing from your experience.

ive read the Power of Now, eckhart is very wise, sometimes we identify with thought, therefore we are heavy in thought.

you have a great gift

peace n many blessings
