How to Wake Up from an Unhappy Life with Eckhart Tolle

How to Wake Up from an Unhappy Life with Eckhart Tolle

In this powerful video, Eckhart Tolle explores the life-changing realization that you don't have a life, you are life. Our attachment to personal stories, past memories, and future expectations often leads to suffering. But the truth is, the essence of who you are is beyond the narrative we identify as "our life."

Eckhart Tolle teaches us how to step out of the constant stream of thoughts and reconnect with the present moment, where true peace and freedom exist. In this video, you will learn how to:

▪️Awaken to presence by becoming aware of the gaps between thoughts
▪️Discover your true essence beyond the stories of your mind
▪️Experience the stillness and awareness that are always available within you
▪️Understand how the ego and self-identity keep us trapped in suffering
▪️Realize that you are not a person with a life, but life itself, always present in the now

By embracing the teachings of awareness and presence, you can transcend mental suffering and experience the deep peace that comes from simply being. Eckhart Tolle's teachings are grounded in the timeless wisdom of The Power of Now and his other works, offering a practical guide to spiritual awakening and living a life of inner peace.

... dogs are angels and come and go as such, they guide and comfort and quickly move on, they teach unconditional love and trust and that life is short, even for us, and being angels they know all relationships are eternal and that the best way to teach is being the example to follow ... 💫

Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.

You don't have a life, you ARE life!🤗💖

Our minds can be either our a really good friend or our relentless tormentor. Ultimately it's our choice which but only once we accept we have a choice 🙏🙏🙏🙏

The most humble rational spiritual teacher of our time 💫 Blessed to know you🙏

I wake up most days with Chronic Pain and pressure in my shoulders, back, head, eyes etc. Hard to wake up and remain in a good mood like this. Docs and therapies have been useless, so I do what I can. Canabis helps life be more bare able and ease the symptoms but it’s still not easy. May all beings be released from suffering and out of pain. Health truly Is wealth.

In short, DrEckhart Tolle says, "Adopt a dog! Rescue at least 1 from the street or a shelter." This IS the way to wake up from an unhappy life for sure. Dogs are literally our best friends. And a lot to learn from them! <3 😍✌🐾

With dogs it seems like even more than just the cessation of thinking. I don't know because I can stop thinking for a few moments when meditating but it doesn't cause the bliss that contact with dogs does. Living with a dog is like like being in love all the time. For years. For as long as they live. Without the human dimension that part between interactions is missing but every time you interact with the dog you have moments of bliss. So its like the dogs joyful loving state causes that same state in you. Or in me anyway. Of course I am uplifted by contact with any dog but it's more intense with my own dogs. Anyway, Eckhart explained it many years ago in his books and the animal book Guardians really explained it and also helps give some peace with their agonizing losses. 😇🙏

Eckart is such a peaceful man, a soft spoken inpirational man that doesn't pull punches and gets right to the point everytime, you are life so stop whining about it and live!😎

Eckhart, you are a blessing to so many! ❤ Thank you!

I've noticed that if I put my crown Chakra to my dogs throat Chakra, I get a powerful hum: a vibration that feels so divine. We layed like this one day for several minutes, and I was just feeling this energy. It was so amazing. ♥️

Ich liebe Eckhart Tolle! Habt einen wunderschönen Tag! Much love from beautiful Germany 🙏💖🐩🐾

Remember SO clearly. One day I was listening to him & he said: Just stop— gently & notice ask: Am I that thought ? Or am I the -awareness- -the witness- of that thought? It’s a “stillness” a “nothing” and yet an “everything” empty “awareness”. “ I am” that: . —“I am”

You don’t have life.
You are life.
Step out of thoughts, out of your life.
Be aware of the consciousness in the gaps between thoughts.

Thoughts are waves on the surface of ocean.
If you only live on the surface, you can’t stop thoughts.

Animals have consciousness, but no conceptualisation.

Thanks Eckhart. 18 December 2024. 🍿🥫⛰☘️🐇🍱🌸🌹🍭🍑😇
