What is the one book you can read this year that can change your life forever? What is one book that every person must read at least once in their lives? In my opinion, it’s ‘The Untethered Soul’, written by Michael Singer. I just read it this year and let me tell you, it’s mind-blowing!
In this classic, author and yogi Michael Singer shows you how opening and closing your heart affects your experience of life. By closing yourself, closing your heart specifically, you needlessly deprive yourself of the nourishing energy that exists within you. You block yourself from the love, joy and enthusiasm that’s latent inside your soul. And that prevents you from experiencing the beauty of each moment.
After applying Singer’s simple suggestions, such as being open at all times, my experience life has drastically improved. It’s a night and day difference that I’m noticing! Each moment feels like a classic movie I’ve watched when I was a kid, or another beautiful memory. I see the beauty of the each moment that I was too distracted from seeing before.
The most important thing you can take from this book is to never close, keep your heart open always. That way, you can experience the sea of love, and joy, and enthusiasm that resides within you! I’m feeling ecstatic as I’m writing this.
Another major lesson from The Untethered Soul is that you should be open to pain. Being open to feel pain in your heart and letting it pass through you will be able to face reality without fear. You will be living life instead of fighting with it or hiding from it. Let the pain pass through you. It’s just a shift in energy. Once it passes, that pain is gone forever. It will only stay with you if you resist it from passing through you.
Now, I don’t believe in waiting for someone or something to come and save you. But if there’s one external thing that can change your life, I believe it’s this book.
There’s a reason why The Untethered Soul has sold over a million copies and has over 37,000 reviews on Amazon! After reading it, I wanted to send out a copy of the book to everyone I care about and also give it to homeless people!
You may be hesitant to read it since it’s listed under New Age genre, which may be a turn off for you as it was for me at first. But as a Christian, I can tell you that you don’t have to give up any of your convictions to benefit from this book. If anything, this book reinforces your convictions as it did mine.
As it says in scripture, “Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul.” — 3 John ch.1, verse 2. Whether you’re an Agnostic, an Atheist or of any faith, you’ll benefit immensely from this book. I promise!
Put The Untethered Soul in your reading list this year, and you won’t regret it!
