About
Eckhart Tolle brings us a much-needed message of hope, revealing how we each have a role in leading humanity in a new direction.
As the perils of our world seem to escalate beyond control, how can we reverse the direction we appear to be heading? According to Eckhart Tolle, the answer lies in discovering a deeper level of awareness both individually and collectively. From Chaos to Consciousness brings you seven solution-oriented sessions on how to rise above the incessant "voice in the head" that leads to so much confusion and conflict-and act on our challenges with wisdom and compassion.
This progressive exploration of some of Eckhart Tolle's most helpful and direct teachings includes:
Session 1
• "Just listen"-a powerful practice in the face of differing opinions
• Overcoming fear and its harmful effects
• Love and the recognition of oneness
Session 2
• The fine line between consciousness and unconsciousness
• How "the bad things" in life propel evolution
• Self-transcendence and the stopping of the mind
Session 3
• How nonconceptual knowing transforms all of your relationships
• Practicing detachment
• Gratitude and appreciation
Session 4
• Breaking the cycle of gain and loss
• Sensing both the "foreground" of your experience and the "background awareness"
• "Cultivating your garden"-your state of consciousness-as you seek to change the world
Session 5
• The opportunity in loss
• The practice of "letting it go" when a conversation turns heated
• The indestructible essence in all of life
Session 6

Session 7

And you are at the stage where this shift can happen." From Chaos to Consciousness is your invitation to embrace this vital shift.
