Russell, darling, I'm real proud of the fact that you have recently, said Yes, to life! I did that recently, myself. I said yes, to being mature, and facing life. Head on. I'm glad that you will do the same :D . I got behind on your videos, I am NOT going to catch up. I tell you, everything. You responded to me on, KZread. You have my personal cell phone number. You know I'm alive. You're rich, you have everything you need. I'm Middle Class, still. I will watch out for you, on your two, KZread channels, beginning tomorrow.

Russell... my soul brother, in recovery, in Kundalini yoga, and now, in my current favourite life-changing book too. Our paths have not crossed physically, but the connection is there. 21 years sober, 4.5 years of Kundalini yoga (over 6 months, now daily), and that innate desire to be all I can be spiritually, physically and universally. Love you my brother 💚

I love you Russel lmao. You have changed my life. I was suicidal and now i can't see myself giving this life away. I'm so much more happier and I have nothing at the moment but I will one day. Your advice on having God has made me a better person. ❤️ Thank you

Man's search for meaning is such an incredible book. It shook me to the core.

"The Untethered Soul" is a brilliant book that I read years ago. However, it wasn't until a few months ago that I begin listening to Michael Singer's podcast that I began rereading the book and actually practicing the surrender experiment. It has changed my life. This is not an easy practice but it is simple. I feel so blessed to have rediscovered him. Thanks for bringing him to the attention of your viewers/listeners as well, Russell.

@@sterrejalou I can definitely use more work in that area. And I will put more effort into it. With that said one thing I do is I try to stay present when situations arise that I’d normally shut down immediately. In my mind I’ve already set the intention that I want to say “yes” more to things. So when I realize I’m shutting down yet another opportunity for me to do something I am able to do a 180 and go down whatever path awaits. When you’re remaining present (which meditating helps tremendously with) it’s a lot easier for you to notice those quick habitual responses you tend to make. Once you notice them it’s up to you to decide if you want to act in the same old same old way or go down a new path and let the Universe give you a new experience. Another thing that helps me a ton is to reflect on how it all went! I always try to think back to how I felt when initially saying no to something and then changing it to a yes. Or just saying yes in the first place fully knowing that I would be trying something new. From there I think about all the great things that came from me taking the “unknown” path. I think of the things I’m grateful for that came as a result of saying yes. For me that’s a vital step because it really helps to break up that habit of always choosing the “safe” route. That mental rehearsal basically strengthens a good habit (saying yes) and weakens a bad habit. On that note I’ll have to plan to reread that book again soon because it’s such a good reminder that you can’t possibly know what’s in store for you unless you take the leap. Also in typical Universe fashion the timing of your reply is perfect because I’m in the middle of enjoying an experience that I decided to say yes to rather than my usual no. Hope that helps!

Of the many books that I have read throughout my life, no other book has left me with such a strong impression as The Untethered Soul. Reading his two books and subsequently listening to Michael Singer's audio lectures has been more transformative than any therapy, religious, or psychedelic experience I've yet had. I owe a lot to this amazing author.

Thanks Russell for introducing me to Michael Singer. As a 50 year old father of 4, I very recently became aware of the concept that you are not your thoughts and this completely blew me away. Singers way of conveying the message is just so beautiful. I particularly like that it’s not overly God-ish which I think and hope makes it very accessible to a broader bunch of people.

I love that book! It's been on my coffee table for over a year. Often re-read passages of it. Very helpful to center oneself, come back to more consciousness. Aspiring to have a "quiet mind and an open heart" as often as possible.

This book literally was a crossroads in my new way of thinking, It made me think and analyze what I was doing with my life. That was about 3 years ago and only this year has everything made sense.

Yes, love Michael Singer. What an incredible soul, just like you!!!

For those like me who would sooner drink battery acid than trust Oprah, please remember that a team of likely hundreds if not thousands of people work to find the books and create the content for her show. She is just a face. With that said, this book is incredible and my life has not been the same since reading it.

I listened to this book on audio for the first time about a week or so ago. Since then I have fallen asleep reading it at least 6 times. It has changed my life more than any other book in recent memory.

Surrender experiment was life changing for me x

Untethered Soul is one of THE best books ever to help people wake up to the truth of who we are.

LOVED this book! Remember when it came out...everyone read the thing (except me). Fast forward many many years to 2014 & a diagnosis do cancer. Went spiritual & read this, too. When he talked about the one who was thinking the thoughts 💭 I was caught. Yes ❗️ I’m the one watching my life , not the one living it. It spirals up from there...today I’m free from incurable cancer with no chemo or radiation. Oh, yes. But I had willingness to do, to become and make myself accepting of what is....(breast cancer, bone cancer, spine, sacrum, hips & sternum). 5+ yrs free of that...& I don’t even feel like the same person anymore . This , for me, was one of the life changers. Now much of this because I was at a point of readiness, and I was cracked open to fill those cracks with something (God abhors a void). It’s was timing...Caroline Myss before cancer ? Ugh. After cancer? Loved her .

I’ve had The Untethered Soul on my Wish List for so long. I came across the journal just today. Then look on KZread and here is this video explaining the book and I now I think I’ll finally make that purchase! Thanks Russell!

Really pleased you've continued these book club videos having been interested to hear your thoughts on this one since presiously mentioned. Have not long finished this book and found it both a thought-provoking and easy read! Have been tempted to pick up the Surrender Experiment as well. Look forward to the next book club video!

i was recommended this book today. so obviously that means to dive in and read pieces of it and KZread about this prior to purchase. love that you recommended it as well. I'm scared but ready. thank you for being so open.

I read this book when you first mentioned it. I love it and have benefitted greatly. Still re-read it often.

Thank you for sharing the book! I will never listen to Ophra but thank you! I have completely changed my view of you since listening to your pod casts! Subbing to this channel as well! Thank you, Russell; for being you, sharing your journey, and letting us be part of your learning and growth!!!! Love all your posts!

Exactly what I needed this morning. Thank you Brother Russell 🙏🏼✨🌅

I have been a big follower of Eckhart Tolle for some time, and just yesterday I found Michael Singer and his work completes all the others, much more clarity.

I love this book- I have it on audible and return to it over and over again- especially when I know I may be heading into what in my mind is a difficult situation. It returned me back to being an observer of the emotions and not a reactor to the emotions that life's events gift me. - Very powerful

I live near Mickey’s Temple of the universe and use to go to Satsang there three days a week for years. I probably should have never stopped. I have had his book for years and recently I have turned to it as I never really reached a solid seat of consciousness to peacefully witness that dialogue of fear that goes on and on in there. I realize now that is truly the only important thing because things always change. I was pleasantly surprised to hear you speaking of his book. I am glad I came across this video. Thank you for putting it up. Very encouraging for me.

Only just found this channel, I’m so excited!

This book changed my life. I keep two copies so I always have one to lend and since joining Audible, Revelation and The Untethered Soul were my first two audio books. 🙏🏻

Came upon it by accident (not Oprah, LOL); have since listened to it many times over. One of the most impactful books I've read. Have to be in a place to receive it, though! Not for everyone at every moment...

This book has been sitting on my bookshelf, unread, for many years. Oprah told me to read it too (haha, heard about it on one of her lists) but I guess I was in a rebellious mood and refused to obey! Thanks for reminding me about it, Russell, I'll dig in now. :-)

I LOVE the way your presence and humor is so brilliant! 🧚‍♂️☀️💜

I would love more book recommendations!! I'm always so interested in these.

The Untethered Soul is one of the books on my Top 10 books that I listed when I was a guest on Sandie Sedgbeer's "No BS Spiritual Book Club" this past month. Singer's book is life changing, and one of the rare books that influences you while you're reading the book. Truly well-written, indeed! I love how you say this book "can give you more than a glimpse of eternity"--well said!

Omg! I've been recently listening to the audiobook version and love it! I made my 25 yr old daughter listen to some to help her too! I'm a fan of the new spiritual you, dude! We both like this book...so cool.

Search for meaning is definitely one that I’d love you to talk about

Thank you, got your advice earlier, that inspired me to read and work with the book 🙌🌸 Next audible is your Recovery - curious 👍 greetings from Germany Petra

I've read this book twice. and listened to the audio once. Loved it. Negative thinking is a thing, and it needs to be addressed in ones life, in order to move past all the crap.

I just finished listening to Revelation. We all at some point in our life have to deal with struggles whether they be addiction, inner demons, childhood trauma, loss or all of the above. Not all of us are at the stage where we can honestly and frankly share those experiences and when sharing them not point our finger of blame at everyone and everything. This is what you have done in Revelation. Very refreshing & honest. I had two cats who died of renal failure, a brother and sister 2 years apart. The love you shared with them will stay with you always.

Russell's Book Club! This is exactly what I needed in my life. Many Lives, Many Masters by Brian Weiss was mind blowing to me. Or the Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan.

Reminds me of the book Mastery of Love ancient Toltec wisdom

It changed me too. I read it before Eckhart Tolle and it had a huge impact. I love Singer's sense of humor and down to earthiness.

I look forward to reading this. Thanks for sharing 💖

Please find Michael Singer’s lecture series available on Audible. I constantly listen to his lectures in my car, to the point that I almost memorized parts of the lectures. 8 hours of spiritual reminders. A must!

Someone posted Russell’s interview with Michael Singer (from Under The Skin) on their channel. Here’s my thoughts on that interview: 1st of all, I could sense Russell's sadness when he spoke of his mom's illness(es). When a parent is ill the child(ren) do not get the full love, attention, affection and nurturing we all need to thrive. As well, there is a fear that the parent could die and leave us. Many of these thoughts and fears we have as children - lay in our subconscious mind. They get tucked away there, as we have no cognitive means to deal with them at that time. UNLESS, the other parent is highly conscious and aware, and talks to the child(ren) explaining things and asks the child(ren) to express how they feel at the time. And then check in with them time to time to see and hear how they (children) are doing. In almost ALL cases, I would say most children do not have a parent that is that conscious and aware. And it is my belief that this is where (subconscious mind) those thoughts and feelings lay and fester. And then something happens, as in this case with Russell, his mother's recent illness, triggers the past unresolved memories. Those of us on our 'healing journey' might 'be aware of the activation of feelings and emotions.' Then we can ask ourselves who is it that is getting activated? For example: Is it my toddler self, my 10 year old self, my adolescent self or my adult self and then try to search for when we felt like that in the past. I believe the key is to feeling the feelings ... be the observer of those feelings as they are felt ... it might be too much for some ... but perhaps not for others ... to allow the catharsis of feelings. Us humans are very complex. The biological processes that are happening every given second - and especially when triggered - attest to our need to heal so that we can thrive. Some people are not yet aware of why they are reactive or that they are even reactive at all. It is usually a current trigger to something that happened in our past that is not resolved! Even though we did not ask for these experiences (unless you believe in reincarnation and that the many lives lived are for experiences for us to grow from - to transcend), it is our responsibility to heal from them - if we want to be happy, grow and thrive. We can't blame others; it just doesn't help us. Forgiveness doesn't let the other person off the hook it frees us from the hurt and pain inflicted upon us. I truly have experienced the power of forgiving ... it is like being released from being chained up. We ALL have had some form of dysfunction/hurt/pain/trauma/etc in our life. I could write a book about all of mine. No one escapes this! The bottom line is every time we are triggered and feeling: jealousy, shame, guilt, pain, hurt, embarrassed, fear, you name it - we need to determine - when was the 1st time or when were all the other times I felt this. And it goes without saying, none of us wants to feel this lower vibrating emotions. We want to feel good, joy, happy etc ... so that is why we need to heal from these circumstances that have caused us so much unease. There are so many great YT channels (especially this one of Russell’s) and books, I don't even know where to begin. Google is a decent tool to search to find information on what one is looking to heal from. I’d like to state that my journey started by reading You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay. With much personal growth [emotional, psychological, spiritual]: counselling, practicing gestalt empty chair technique (on my own and with a counsellor), reading, using workbooks - actually doing the work to heal, EFT tapping, EMDR, inner child work, to name a few. It’s such a personal and individual journey to heal. You have to find what resonates with you. Wishing Everyone all the best on their healing journey. Peace.

Once again, Russell, thank you for your book video - they are all so helpful, reminding, refreshing, and refocussing one on ones own journey within. So vital for us all.

Best book on spirituality. Changed my life for the best.

Wow, the big “O,” personally gave you that command. How exciting is that? Thank you for inspiring us! I’m so happy you found your way out, and thank you for helping all of us who are on the journey

As always.. I was again inspired! Ty♥️🙏🏼

Thank you Russell. . Exactly when I needed it.

Love the thorn analogy. Ordered the book while watching this video.

Horse splaying ears pissed about being set out to run in the sand...but Russel sees "a unicorn dashing about." Ever endearing. 💖

I just happen to be reading this book right now and I just finished chapter 10. It is fabulous and Russle and Oprah are right. Its an important book for taming one's inner-world.

Wow Russell, Just saw you on American TV"s Kelly and Ryan morning show. What a clear concise explanation of our current state of life you made. As a young man growing up in the late sixties early seventies, I also had to struggle with addictions and temptations from all directions, be they sex, drugs or the rock and roll excesses. Also I saw the fragility and strain placed on our society and environment caused by inequality, greed, a go-go competitive, get ahead mentality, waste, destruction and war. It affected everything in my life and I sought refuge in a pipe and pot. I never married or had children, not by choice, but knowing perhaps this was such a screwed up planet, that I might not be able to convince a child that it would all be fine for their future. But thank God for faith in my life, as it was the rock that grounded me. My parents instilled religion in me, and as you said, the older I got the more it helps on this very temporary existence on this "ball of confusion". You Russell are very inspiring and your past has added so much to your knowledge. Your very much needed at this time, as I think we all needed the pandemic in some way to slow down and do a reassessment of how to move forward, and to appreciate everyday blessings we all have. Hope this post isn't too long winded, but you made more sense in two minutes this morning, than I have heard in 20 years. Will check out your other posts and audible revelations. Thank you and God bless you. Mike from Boston

Just got assigned this book by my english professor! So happy to see it endorsed by Brother Russel

It's funny that the majority of books I read in sobriety are all in this vein, as if before I thought my spirit was found in a bottle or the like. Hmm.
