Customer Reviews

White spiritualism

If you want to read a book about white people using Asian philosophies to make their claims, look no forward to this snoozefest. Just read memoirs and fiction, self help books like these are for chumps.

not a page turner

My purchase was a " suggested requirement" for a Catalyst Coaching program (ironically the program instructor collaborated with the author). The book definitely had great aspects! but not enough to be a page-turner. It was disappointing knowing that the book was more a income source for the instructor rather than a helpful tool for the coaching students. I would purchase the book as a personal read, but do not recommend for beginner coaches.

Untethered soul contains the wisdom I’d hope to pass to my most loved ones

Wokeness is very hard to explain but it’s a very positive thing . Michael Singer does a great job to help one understand simple processes to practice a good life.

Buy this book!!!

By far the best and most enlightening book I have ever read!

A Step Toward Enlightenment

I can only read so much of this at a time, because although it's a short book, every page is so eye opening. Very accessible, very welcoming language.

New perspective

A beautiful book to give you perspective and knowledge on how to tackle ever day life with was and grace.

What a gift!

This book was initially a gift to me, and after reading it, I have bought many more copies to give to others. My husband and I have both read it TWICE, because it was so helpful in learning how to quiet that voice that used to keep us awake at 3:00 in the morning with all of those worst-case scenarios; and how to let go of past hurts and annoyances, and how to tap into energy that we didn't realize we had! One of the women in my Church group told me that, despite this book not being a traditional "Christian" book, she had gotten more out of it to strengthen her faith and spirituality than any of the many Bible Study groups she has ever attended.

Best Book I’ve ever Read !

I read a lot of books about consciousness , and all of life‘s questions , this book was amazing for me and I am getting another one to give to my mother and plan on giving them as gifts , for I feel like whoever reads this book will have a better understanding of their entire life !

A journey of self discovery

There are moments in your life, that you will never forget, in which you became aware of joy flowing through your heart. Have you ever stopped to study a moment such as this, or contemplate the source, or question why you don't feel that all of the time? It came from within you, didn't it? You were aware of the joy that you felt inside. Are you interested in these things and exploring the edges of who you currently think you are? Take the time to study, as a scientist would, and explore these questions. This book is for those that want to explore such things. In a clear and straight forward manner the author advises us how to take the first step and the next and so on, on what becomes a journey of self discovery. No matter where your consciousness is consumed today, the author clearly illustrates how you may become more aware of how this consumption is presiding over your everyday life. Once aware of these things, you may begin to truly understand why you don't feel the joy in your day to day life and come to know and challenge the edges of yourself.

Incedible profound simplicity

I have gone through some incredible changes in 2006/2007. Death of parents and other close members, divorce, loss of business in the town I live in etc... so many changes some would say, and I went a little "nutso" I wondered what the heck was going on? I ended up reading books, going to seminars, or getting my hands on anything and everything I could to help make sense of it all. I have also prayed my butt off and it has been a work in progress, and all was valuable. The book the " 4 Agreements" was paramount in my new discovery, and now this book "The Untethered Soul" changed my world and my "mind" forever. Below is a link to what I have found in this journey of my own life--I get it now, confusion is over and I am living a whole new way!

Soar with The Untethered Soul

I simply cannot say enough great things about this profound book! The Untethered Soul gets right down to business answering some of the deepest, soul searching questions I'd had for years but didn't know whom to ask. It's almost as if the author has seen into the inner-workings of my mind! With very straight forward examples, the book emphasizes the pitfalls of relying on the mind to come up with ideas for making ourselves happy. The book points out that relying on the outside world for inner happiness just simply doesn't work. Happiness comes to us when we change and let go of ourselves at the deepest, innermost-level rather than changing the world outside. The Untethered Soul helps to explain the crazy world around us where the unhampered ego creates conflict. This book is a step-by-step guide to the letting go of the ego - a process that may seem counter-intuitive initially, but ultimately leads to freedom from the nagging mind and heavy heart and directs you to the beauty of the self within. The chapter on Contemplating Death has made me truly appreciate each living moment. I no longer want to waste time on energy depleting thoughts and feelings. I am grateful that Michael Singer has written a book so deep that it could actually make a difference in people's lives and help to make the world a better place to live. Consider yourself warned! Once you read this book, there is no turning back from The Untethered Soul within.
