4. The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment by Eckhart Tolle

Don’t judge this book by it’s name – you need not be religious or spiritual to read this book. It is refreshing and non-preachy. The core message of the book powerfully conveys:

The way to true happiness is through learning to live in the now, in this moment we are experiencing, without reliving the past or racing to the future

It’s not as simple as it’s said for most of us and knowing this, Eckhart Tolle helps us understand how our thoughts and emotions get in the way, and what can be done about it.
