A friend called me yesterday to let me know about all the good things happening over at Oprah.com with regard to Eckhart Tolle’s new book, A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose.

I must be the last person to read Eckhart Tolle, although I’ve seen a few of his videos on You Tube. There is a real power in Eckhart’s words and presentation, so I’m diving into both of his books

It is strange how the universe often works in our lives. Another good friend bought A New Earth at the Phoenix airport when it first came out, right after we had finished a Sedona Method retreat. He loved the book, and kept texting me every time he read a few chapters. I, of course, ignored his urgings, as I was just getting interested Adyashanti’s teachings. So far I’ve been enjoying Eckhart’s books, and I feel a real resonance with his ideas.

After my friend called yesterday, I did something I thought I would never do: I typed oprah.com into my browser and surfed her site. All those years of my ex getting “O” magazine in the mail had left me with a somewhat bad taste in my mouth for Oprah, but as I perused her site, I found some pretty good stuff. The forum for A New Earth is excellent. Maybe I will take back all the snide Oprah comments I’ve made over the years (I even made an Oprah pun in the new video I did this weekend).

Oprah is going to be offering a live webinar for 10 weeks based on A New Earth. You can get all the details at Oprah.com.

And after you’ve been to Oprah.com and then headed over to Amazon to purchase A New Earth, check out fellow writer JoLynn over at The Fit Shack who has a nice write-up on the webinar and some good thoughts on how A New Earth fits into her specialty: weight loss.

  1. Hi Tom, I dare say you are meant to be at the webinar, there have been too many promptings in your life to be a coincidence. :)

    I also wasn’t a member of Oprah.com until I signed up to be in the webinar. Sure, I watch her sometimes but I’m not an “Oprah groupie” (if there is such a thing, lol). I do think that she does many things that are positive though, and this event is truly inspiring, no one can deny that. ;)

    Thanks for the link, also, Tom!

  2. I like Oprah and agree with JoLynn that Oprah has done many good things with her life. I just signed up yesterday for the webcast. I bought the book about a month ago on the prompting of an internet friend. I have been slowly reading and absorbing little bits at a time. Guess if I am going to watch the webcast, I will have to get serious about my reading of the book.
