Reading With My Skepticism Intact

I came to The Power of Now expecting to argue with it. I am not a spiritual person by nature, and books about presence and consciousness make me uneasy. I finished it anyway because a friend I respect told me to stay past chapter three. She was right about chapter three. The ideas that stayed were not the mystical ones. They were about the space between a thought and your reaction to it.

The chapter on the pain-body is the one I return to most.
