We are all witnessing—and participating in—an evolutionary story. And we will all determine how the plot unfolds. This is the premise of Conscious Evolution, an impassioned and inspiring audio program with Eckhart Tolle. “The world always moves between order and chaos,” he explains. “And in the present time, anybody who is not awakening spiritually, even to some extent, will be drawn into deeper unconsciousness.” Now, he shares four sessions of practical insights and teachings to help you become a “bringer of consciousness” in this precarious era.

The Power of Human shows us how to rehumanize and harness these unique abilities to improve our lives, beginning with our jobs.
