I suffered from major depression and crippling anxiety. I couldn't do "1 day at a time." I controlled myself by thinking just get through the next 5 minutes (or any small amount of time). It helped. This is something that took a good 14 years from my quality of life. Being able to control anxiety is difficult, but it can be done. Don't be discouraged. Peace ☮️.
Same. The path was easier than I could’ve realized. A work in progress yes, the fact that fear has left me, not in the form of bravery, within. Freeing me from pain bodies I had no idea existed within me, causing pain, suffering and illness. Don’t think I’d still be here if I didn’t find this message from Eckart. Was lucky enough to be with him in NY State for a week in the mountains of NY in one of his events, only 200 tickets were available, how my wife and I scored them is still a mystery. I’m humbled and grateful for that time with him🙏.
He's helping me a lot to control my anxiety. That's why I get up earlier every day and take my time paying attention to the things I do before I go to work. Getting up, feeding my pets, taking a shower, getting dressed with the clothes I have already chosen to wear the night before. Enjoying my cup of coffee, and doing all this without thinking about work. Then, with plenty of time, I get in my truck and enjoy the driving to work. I really do not think about how I think my day is going to be when I'm at work. I don't care about it. I leave that until I'm already there and just taking things as they come. This eliminates my anxiety completely. I can see most people on the road driving faster, rushing and I see myself the way I was before. Taking for granted everything that the present moment is giving you.
“Today I escaped anxiety. Or no, I discarded it, because it was within me, in my own perceptions - not outside.” - Marcus Aurelius. WE 💜 you ECKHART :)
neither 'inside nor outside' but, imagined as our ego-identity/persona and than believed as a personal fact/truth (meaning, "this is so for me" personally/mentally) .. * p.s : I AM all of this & more, so everything is within this I AM.. heart being vs. mental identities a.k.a person[ality- other]. Nothing ever happens to me, yet Without me, Nothing else can exist. (::)
The week I found you kind sir, I realized life is passing me by while I sit at my computer working from home. I have the age & the time in so I made the big decision to retire this June on my 57th bday. Until I heard you, it never occurred to me to just make it happen. Retirement docs have been submitted & I feel so alive & hopeful for a soothing & creative future now. All thanks to you Mr. Tolle❣️🙏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@Round 1 It about all nows, being fulfilled , all time one work in now it the same in retirement, the last will be more difficult because the old habits to work for future. Retirement would become restless. It remind me a company, with unusual approach to their employees. The moment you are hired you have one day of week to be free to figure out what you will do when retirement come. It not a day off, it your retirement day that some point come and you have to know how you live it, need learn it now. What happened after this, everybody started enjoying their work, the production sky high. The training retirement time become irrelevant, something changed the flame of mind of everybody. ( It is the freedom to chose, freedom of not be slaved by work in life) It the most intelligent idea of organization can apply. It is life of their employees the company giving back, the reward is beyond of reward.
My husband and feel the same. The realisation that I’ve spent most of my life, 57, in pursuit of the wrong things. Decision made. Have a wonderful, enlightened retirement.
This is so true. I’ve filled my home with cute sparkle lights that require manual switches and buttons to turn on. ✨ This helps me focus on simple tasks immediately in the morning. I have a chronic illness (hEDS) which is unrelenting daily pain. I use a technique called “Build A Ladder” and it’s all about paying attention to, and appreciating the small steps in life to prevent your self from being absorbed by depression and the chatter of the pain self 👩🏻🦳💕
I’d like to learn more about the “build a ladder” technique, is this information available somewhere? I also live with chronic pain and want to develop a better relationship with my experience.
No worries... It happens with me too. I guess we are not used to to living like this. Being in hurry is what's been deeply embedded in us for years. It would take some time.
@@iamdjmehow I fear that this pandemic will keep us busy for a while longer. And in addition to physical hygiene, mental and spiritual hygiene will also be of immense importance. I've been suffering from weltschmerz for years, and it's extremely strange to me that suddenly everyone is depressed. Before, I was always told not to whine so much. Now I just feel sorry for everyone who suffers from this demon called depression in exactly the same way. I wish you much strength and attention for the gift of presence, my friend!
I was trying my very best to be in the moment....... However approximately 8 minutes of the 12-minute teaching, I scrolled down to see what other videos to watch in my future.
I really like this - reminds of something St David, the patron saint of Wales, is said to have told his followers: "Do the little things" - a small sentence with profound meaning. When I start feeling anxious I turn to my go-to text: the Antianxiety Formula by Duncan Holder - it's really helped me.
Eckhart is helping me more than any doctor ever has. I'm learning to deal with anxiety without the use of drugs, long way to go but im getting there slowly. Thank you Eckhart for your most meaningful and calming words
@@KristelRalston i'm taking 20mg citolopram every morning and it really helps.Much less anxious now and no longer does it feel like a battle against my own happiness. Eckarts videos still charm, captivate and teach me 🤒 thanks for asking 👌
@@squeakysoliloquy83why do you still need medication? Long term use will lead to cognitive degeneration. May I suggest looking into learning to manage anxiety without medication? I did it you can too.
@@charlieknoch5502 Thanks for your concern and advice. Somehow I have managed to cope. The day my wife left is the last day I took the Citilopram, my guessing was I couldn't feel any worse. Somone once said "The lowest ebb is the turn of the tide" Through the tears, sad and happy, through very mixed confused emotions I have tried to occupy myself. Today, over two months on, I can see light at the end of the tunnel, I no longer need or want the anti depressants and am being, being more concerned with right now, The only thing I have planned, besides work, is a climb up Mnt Snowdon on Aug 20th. That will help my body, spirit and mind more than any man made drug. Eckert is a true inspiration and at times I havejust listened to his voice, not his words. Sometimes he soothes, sometimes he educates! He's the Man!
Right now I'm procrastinating as I'm agoraphobic and have made going to the shop 'The big moment'. I decided to watch this video and will now try to see it as many little steps. Thank you so much 🥺❤️.
Your life is your own, don’t waste it trying to be what others expect you to be. Don’t sacrifice YOUR happiness to make everybody happy. Don’t give up on your dreams to build up other people’s dreams.💚🌞

Patience is essential to being present. So much of my life I find myself rushing through tasks and moments that in my mind are unpleasant .. when really it just my distorted pleasure seeking mind that wants gratification. Anyone else notice this about themselves?
I also enjoy hearing this man speak. My son put me onto him..he really lives his life according to his words. He has also told me of this speaker's early life experiences...so interesting!
As a child I was so engrossed in the present and now as an adult I am lost in the so called future things and thoughts, as I child I was truely alive now I feel im chasing a ghost of an existence. What happened?
Eckhart's videos and book have saved me many times from violent, vicious, unrelenting panic attacks. Dont know where id be without this guidance. Thank you so so much
Thank you so much Eckhart!!! My fears are much more controllable these days.... I want to go to a retreat someday. My excuse is I get a little overwhelmed by my need to ✍ ✍ ✍ ✍ ✍ ✍ ✍ 😄.... Have a great week 😀 ☺ Dear Friends!!! Thank you for your patience n empathy for me, love you guys!!!
I just dropped $275 on getting my septic tank pumped...The septic backed up into all my sinks, toilets and tubs on the day of my wedding party 😬 but I smiled and joked. They guy arrived early and I ran out there to help him. It was a horrible smell but I helped shovel the dirt off the tank and lift the lid. I had someone at my party make the fella a food plate and thanked him tremendously. I figured, it had to be pumped. It was quite a tragedy at first but turned out to be the humor that kept the party laughing 😅 I took a shower and went back at it.
Anxiety is being in the future & past - how simple that once u still the voice ur in the moment which is all we have anyway - everything is temporary anyway y bother manifesting negativity w ur own mind😂🤦🏻♀️🧠
@@organist1982 😂 I didn’t even notice that . Auto correct must have changed it and I didn’t pick up on it. Thanks for pointing it out, I’ll be conscious of that next time 💕
I have much more anxiety since I’ve been working from home for several years. My job is also very demanding and staring at a computer screen all day seems insane to me. How did the world get to be like this? No wonder so many of us have anxiety. We’ve lost touch with normal communication and connection with humans.
Remote working is not all it’s cracked up to be and eventually led me to quit. Especially since I had never worked as hard in my entire career, as I did when I was WFH, my employer’s belief was that I was “baking cookies and doing laundry.” I’m so happy you posted, as I thought it was just me not being able to handle it.
@@HappyNess43 I am lucky to work for a company that does appreciate me, but we are understaffed which makes it harder. They did just hire someone, so that should help. Even with that though, working from home is unhealthy for me in many ways. Did you find another job going into an office?
In every video Ekhart brings me peace❤ I watched this in a sick state which i believe was due to living in the future. I came back from vacation and was going to leave to another vacation in 4 days. The 4 days of work became torture in my mind, i didn't want to be here, doing the work. I didnt feel like living the current moment, i wanted to be 4 days ahead and it made me soo weak. This is day 2 and i am going to live it fully, every meeting i have, every person i will talk to, i am going to treat as a present. A present of present moment:)
My driving instructor told me this to prepare me for my driving test years ago. He told me think of it as the first thing I have to do as I leave the junction, next thing of the next step I’ve got to do stop at the light. This helped me rather than feeling overwhelmed with the whole journey I separated it into each task I needed to do. I did pass first time
I'd like to share something. I know there is not one solution for all but perhaps it works for others as well. After decades of severe anxiety and doubt. Watching my life happen in a dark matrix of my own making. One day I just said a few words. One sentence, I don't know where it came from, nor do I need to know. Words I say everytime I start to think or feel in a negative way. Instantly I literally feel positivity flowing through me. I have to use the words less and less. It's simply. 'do not feed the monster'.
If you loose someone or something, you were really attached to, anxiety dissolves. And suddenly you are there in the Now. And you can stay with it, because there is no more future, you want to go to. Just appreciating and enjoying the little things in the Now - that’s what life is all about.
Thank you Eckhart for your continued help. I am waking continually. Your help is forever appreciated. If the little things are on going through out the day Being present is easy.
I understand this question as recently I’ve felt as thought my mind is clear of any panic or negative thoughts but my physical body is experiencing feeling of anxiety? Xx💜
@@ryanocallaghan1061 I honestly feel it's subconscious, and possibly relating to the con being pulled in the world right now. .. I've always had mental discipline to quiet the mind, and never had this issue before the past few months.
My mind is definitely always looking to the future when things will be better (or if I really anxious my mind is looking to the future which will be worse).
But what if the big thing in my life that I'm looking forward to IS folding my shirts! 🤣 Who cares about the weddings and relationships and award ceremonies and stuff. Someday I'm going to be a great shirt folder!
Probably among the *most important speeches* ever taken so far by Eckhart Tolle. It might sound limited because he only speaks about simple things and anxiety which are aspects of life but I assure you after having watched and listened to hundreds of speeches that this video is the most fundamental because if you listen with the *uttermost attention* you realize that he speaks about the everyday life of *all human beings* on Earth. Be it their family, social or professional life. 🙏
i love this man so much - he really is helping me getting through some ridiculous issues that are so minor but really causing anxiety - I feel blessed to be able to have access to this information
You are absolutely correct human mortals are always in an unsatisfied state no matter their achievements their anxieties and ambitions are always imbalance because of their mortal vain aspirations. GOD ALMIGHTY NEVER FAILS
From 9min. in this video on life and living in the moment of LIFE. My book had a sentence: use your brain, listen o your heart, and live with mission. Referring to that, The Dalai Lama gave me a foreword for that book (Results from the Heart), while also pointing that we need to connect to heart while we use our brain. That is precisely the point Tolle talk after 9 min into the video which is alignment of our existence/ life with LIFE. Since we get too occupied in what goes in our mind, such act of connection between brain and heart - or life and LIFE poses a challenge for most of us... At the end, it is execution for each to find a way...
This quote by Michel de Montaigne is helpful when my mind starts getting too far out ahead of me: “He who fears he shall suffer, already suffers what he fears” Take a moment, just breathe and be.
Every night I have chest pain that scares me so much I can't sleep. Medically cleared two years ago, seeing a physio now as well. It's been on and off for two years and it's driving me insane. I just feel like every moment and every breathe I'm a second away from death 😩
Dysfunction and unhappiness has been my goal and effort to achieve a way out of and have been compliant and patient to get to me and now I have been waiting ready for a while restricted by the chains and oppression of crystal math before I can make this timeframe a reality worth perceiving
This video has changed my life. Although I already knew a tiny bit about the value to being present, the truth, that The Now is the only reality, evaded me. The other comment I will make is that I read someone commenting that they resented paying to come to hear Eckhart speak, when he is a millionaire. I might remind anyone who is thinking anything similar, that the 'little gem' above is free, and for me, is worth at least a million Aussie dollars. Thank you Eckhart, I'm very grateful. Regards, Lachlan
Thank u Master Eckhart, I feel, I 've found " That box of Gold" unopened for 46 years.. Surprised by the matchless inner joy, which other people may not found spending their whole life and what they have. A decipel from Pakistan. Love ❣️ u E.T.
Great vid...it's all about the journey ... Finding the bits of the Jigsaws, often time you're working on more than one all at the same time!! and it's a struggle . Little jigs pop up and divert you in between all the time....but....Enjoy the constructional period as it occurs. See it develop and see the parts become the past as they slot together and if the Jigsaw ends in perfection then great.. Sometimes peices can not fit or you can't find one suitable or get bits where they shouldn't be , but that's life... So concentrate on the peices of life in your hands just now and play, juggle and try to make the most of this.. Keep the image of the conclusion but don't let it cloud the image of that jigsaw In the making, this can often be the best bit! Well that's how I see it and tell the people I help to do. Keith
The last part of this talk got really deep talking about the collective consciousnesses and how the individuals affect them... I had to listen to a few times to get it... I listen to Lorie Ladd so this made a little sense to me from her perspective... this was really powerful to hear from eckharts perspective though with my admiration for him and his views on things
EKHART, you are akin to an anchor in this world of turmoil.. I do not understand all your philosophy, I am very old, no excuse I know, but I see in you teachings in similarity to the way it was when I was young..
The kind of people that come to this corner of the Internet are so lovely, it makes me happy to see so many people becoming aware of these things. Much love to you all! I'm glad you're here! 💖⭐🌜🌼

Especially since I had never worked as hard in my entire career, as I did when I was WFH, my employer’s belief was that I was “baking cookies and doing laundry.” I’m so happy you posted, as I thought it was just me not being able to handle it.
@@HappyNess43 I am lucky to work for a company that does appreciate me, but we are understaffed which makes it harder. They did just hire someone, so that should help. Even with that though, working from home is unhealthy for me in many ways. Did you find another job going into an office?
Wow, this guy is awesome. I love the depth of his words. He really undestands the roots of anxiety.
Here to help my wife over come her bad anxiety.
It’s all about intentional living and simplicity.
In every video Ekhart brings me peace❤ I watched this in a sick state which i believe was due to living in the future. I came back from vacation and was going to leave to another vacation in 4 days. The 4 days of work became torture in my mind, i didn't want to be here, doing the work. I didnt feel like living the current moment, i wanted to be 4 days ahead and it made me soo weak. This is day 2 and i am going to live it fully, every meeting i have, every person i will talk to, i am going to treat as a present. A present of present moment:)
Anxiety because of a meeting I have tomorrow brings me here, social situations. Thank u tolle, I've learnt lots from you and will continue to try.
This is nothing short of brilliant. So simple, yet profound.
Can t believe I ve spent my life never in the ' now ' , I THANK God I found you Eckhart Thank you so very much ,
His compasion towards the other is limitless
Wish I'd heard you speak 20 years ago, probably wouldn't have argued with myself of why I felt how I felt, love and gratitude brother 👊☘🇮🇪✌
My driving instructor told me this to prepare me for my driving test years ago. He told me think of it as the first thing I have to do as I leave the junction, next thing of the next step I’ve got to do stop at the light. This helped me rather than feeling overwhelmed with the whole journey I separated it into each task I needed to do. I did pass first time
Eckhart really is a true Zen Master, the way he describes how a big thing is just a series of small and insignificant things at a time.
Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.
so much fear, especially if it is a scary medical anxiety
I could listen to Eckhart all day. I love his humour which is the greatest antidote to anxiety 😍😂😎
Love the dry humor and the ability to make himself laugh.
Eckhart Tolle 💓 To look at you, makes me feel so much love and peace😊 I love you
This is exactly true, it’s always rush,rush in a hurry. It’s time to slow down.💕
Eckhart is describing my "overwhelm". I have to remember his words...it's the little things. 99%!!!!!
I honestly don’t know why but he reminds me of master Yoda 😂😂
This!
It’s the eyes 👀
These teachings are helping me enjoy life more and becoming more awakened with daily pracice
I'd like to share something. I know there is not one solution for all but perhaps it works for others as well. After decades of severe anxiety and doubt. Watching my life happen in a dark matrix of my own making. One day I just said a few words. One sentence, I don't know where it came from, nor do I need to know. Words I say everytime I start to think or feel in a negative way. Instantly I literally feel positivity flowing through me. I have to use the words less and less. It's simply. 'do not feed the monster'.
If you loose someone or something, you were really attached to, anxiety dissolves. And suddenly you are there in the Now. And you can stay with it, because there is no more future, you want to go to. Just appreciating and enjoying the little things in the Now - that’s what life is all about.
Thank you Eckhart for your continued help. I am waking continually. Your help is forever appreciated. If the little things are on going through out the day
Being present is easy.
What about when your mind is extremely calm and clear, but it feels like your body is having its own anxiety?
I understand this question as recently I’ve felt as thought my mind is clear of any panic or negative thoughts but my physical body is experiencing feeling of anxiety? Xx💜
You might find his videos on the pain body helpful - he addresses this point there :)
maybe because its now automatic because thats what you taught it . so it lives in your body not mind .
but intinally it was taught by the mind but now is lodged in there and its created its own mind ie your body
@@ryanocallaghan1061 I honestly feel it's subconscious, and possibly relating to the con being pulled in the world right now. ..
I've always had mental discipline to quiet the mind, and never had this issue before the past few months.
Great speech, very deep indeed.. need to listen to this speech over and over.. thanks Eckhart.
Pain body gives
Me anxiety 😥
My mind is definitely always looking to the future when things will be better (or if I really anxious my mind is looking to the future which will be worse).
But what if the big thing in my life that I'm looking forward to IS folding my shirts! 🤣
Who cares about the weddings and relationships and award ceremonies and stuff. Someday I'm going to be a great shirt folder!
🤣
@Are you really taking what I wrote as a serious criticism of Eckhart?
@ no that's incorrect. Only you can disturb your own thought processes
Love his giggle !!!!
“In the end, just three things matter:
How well we have lived. How well we have loved. How well we have learned to let go”
😌💚
Probably among the *most important speeches* ever taken so far by Eckhart Tolle.
It might sound limited because he only speaks about simple things and anxiety which are aspects of life but I assure you after having watched and listened to hundreds of speeches that this video is the most fundamental because if you listen with the *uttermost attention* you realize that he speaks about the everyday life of *all human beings* on Earth.
Be it their family, social or professional life.
🙏
Simply Love this Advanced Soul and Master Teacher 🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏
My childhood conditioning was very goal achievement = Happiness and nothing during the process. It's really tough unlearning that.
Arrived searching for santuary and a respite from my own troubled and busy mind... Wise monumental words from a humble man.
Ooh, a glimpse into ET's personal life; " I was putting away some clothes this morning..." lol
i love this man so much - he really is helping me getting through some ridiculous issues that are so minor but really causing anxiety - I feel blessed to be able to have access to this information
You are absolutely correct human mortals are always in an unsatisfied state no matter their achievements their anxieties and ambitions are always imbalance because of their mortal vain aspirations. GOD ALMIGHTY NEVER FAILS
My first move toward happiness was living in the now after having anxiety and depression all my life. One of the best things I’ve ever done.
I often think about the havoc he must cause in the lives of people living in Clock Time.. Driving, Meetings etc.. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
And you avoid this banal existence how, exactly?
The heading anxiety is misleading because you only connect it with the fear of doing something big. For me anxiety is an illness or a state of mind
From 9min. in this video on life and living in the moment of LIFE. My book had a sentence: use your brain, listen o your heart, and live with mission. Referring to that, The Dalai Lama gave me a foreword for that book (Results from the Heart), while also pointing that we need to connect to heart while we use our brain. That is precisely the point Tolle talk after 9 min into the video which is alignment of our existence/ life with LIFE. Since we get too occupied in what goes in our mind, such act of connection between brain and heart - or life and LIFE poses a challenge for most of us... At the end, it is execution for each to find a way...
I wish everyone: Love, Light & Laughter in abundance. 💞💫😂💞💫😂💞💫😂
Becoming aware, present in the body, accepting whatever arises💥
We love you Eckhart these videos are helping me to cope up with anxiety and fear. May God bless you 😢 I'm lucky to find you 🙏❤️
This quote by Michel de Montaigne is helpful when my mind starts getting too far out ahead of me: “He who fears he shall suffer, already suffers what he fears”
Take a moment, just breathe and be.

Enjoying the Underlying Stillness. Thanks so much for posting this
Every night I have chest pain that scares me so much I can't sleep. Medically cleared two years ago, seeing a physio now as well. It's been on and off for two years and it's driving me insane. I just feel like every moment and every breathe I'm a second away from death 😩
😰I feel so sorry for you ❤️
"Anxiety is the gap between now and later." -Fritz Perls
Dysfunction and unhappiness has been my goal and effort to achieve a way out of and have been compliant and patient to get to me and now I have been waiting ready for a while restricted by the chains and oppression of crystal math before I can make this timeframe a reality worth perceiving
Huge. Thanks for this incredible reminder Eckhart. And bless you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🌟💗
This video has changed my life. Although I already knew a tiny bit about the value to being present, the truth, that The Now is the only reality, evaded me. The other comment I will make is that I read someone commenting that they resented paying to come to hear Eckhart speak, when he is a millionaire. I might remind anyone who is thinking anything similar, that the 'little gem' above is free, and for me, is worth at least a million Aussie dollars. Thank you Eckhart, I'm very grateful. Regards, Lachlan
Hi I'm Barbara freitas this so nice person Elkhart cam into my life 15 yrs ago. I,m 87 soon. What a beautiful way to live.
Thank u Master Eckhart, I feel, I 've found " That box of Gold" unopened for 46 years.. Surprised by the matchless inner joy, which other people may not found spending their whole life and what they have.
A decipel from Pakistan.
Love ❣️ u E.T.
He speaks the truth.. We deny the present moment, which is life itself..
Great vid...it's all about the journey ... Finding the bits of the Jigsaws, often time you're working on more than one all at the same time!! and it's a struggle . Little jigs pop up and divert you in between all the time....but....Enjoy the constructional period as it occurs. See it develop and see the parts become the past as they slot together and if the Jigsaw ends in perfection then great.. Sometimes peices can not fit or you can't find one suitable or get bits where they shouldn't be , but that's life... So concentrate on the peices of life in your hands just now and play, juggle and try to make the most of this.. Keep the image of the conclusion but don't let it cloud the image of that jigsaw In the making, this can often be the best bit!
Well that's how I see it and tell the people I help to do.
Keith
Thank you Eckhart this is so true…anticipation can cause anxiety of which causes lost moments of presence and unbalance.🙏💜🙏
You shoul learn to love anxiety as a form of development
Thank you! Sending you love and gratitude! ❤️
The last part of this talk got really deep talking about the collective consciousnesses and how the individuals affect them... I had to listen to a few times to get it...
I listen to Lorie Ladd so this made a little sense to me from her perspective... this was really powerful to hear from eckharts perspective though with my admiration for him and his views on things
♥️
I Love you Eckhart, with all my heart.
Does witchcraft exist? And how do we protect ourselves from it?
EKHART, you are akin to an anchor in this world of turmoil..
I do not understand all your philosophy, I am very old, no excuse I know, but I see in you teachings in similarity to the way it was when I was young..
