«This book will become an indispensable companion on our spiritual journey.» Eckhart Tolle. Anyone who has practiced any of the spiritual traditions on the planet will know that the key is to let go. But how do you do that? In this original, honest and practical guide, Peter Russell shows us that the things we hold on to are often not tangible problems, but thoughts, emotions, interpretations, beliefs or expectations; that is, they are not reality, they exist only in our minds. And we can strip them of their power and let them go, simply by making a small mental shift. Russell summarizes this letting go in a series of steps consisting of accepting, becoming aware of, recognizing or making friends with that which we tend to avoid. This paradoxical practice generates peace of mind, new perspectives and wisdom in action. In a turbulent time like ours, this is a tool within everyone's reach. Foreword by Eckhart Tolle.
