Oprah Winfrey has teamed up with Eckhart Tolle to conduct an online class on Tolle’s book A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose. Over 700,000 people signed up for the class. The classes are free and take place on Mondays for the next 10 weeks. The sessions have no formal structure, but will inlcude streaming questions from participants. Additionally, they will discuss what each chapter means and how to apply it your life. According to Winfrey, Tolle’s book, “helps us to distance ourselves from our egos, which, of course open ourselves to a higher self, which he calls consciousness. It helps us to stop creating our own suffering and obsessing over the past and what the future might be.” Tolle went from suicidal despair to inexplicable bliss during a spiritual transformation in 1977. Tolle’s publishers have shipped 3.5 million copies of A New Earth since Winfrey selected it for her book club. In order to register, visit www.oprah.com/anewearth. Â
