Summary
Who are you? When you start to explore this question, you find out
how elusive it really is. Are you a physical body? A collection of
experiences and memories? A partner to relationships? Each time you consider these aspects of yourself, you realize that there is much more to you than any of these can define. In The Untethered Soul,
spiritual teacher Michael A. Singer explores the question of who we are and arrives at the conclusion that our identity is to be found in our
consciousness, the fact of our ability to observe ourselves, and the world around us. By tapping into traditions of meditation and
mindfulness, Singer shows how the development of consciousness can
enable us all to dwell in the present moment and let go of painful
thoughts and memories that keep us from achieving happiness and
self-realization.The Untethered Soul offers a frank and friendly discussion of consciousness and how we can
develop it. In part one, Singer examines the notion of self and the inner dialogue we all live with. Part two examines the experience of energy as it flows through us and works to show listeners how to open their hearts to the energy of experience that permeates their lives. Ways to overcome tendencies to close down to the rest of the world are the subject of
part three. Enlightenment, the embrace of universal consciousness, is the subject of part four. And finally, in part five, Singer returns to daily life and the pursuit of unconditional happiness. Throughout, the book maintains a light and engaging tone, free from heavy dogma and prescriptive religious references. The easy exercises that figure in each chapter help listeners experience the ideas that Singer presents.

Life changing eye opener. Slight dips in volume in the narration, but well worth the listen; the lessons in this book apply to everyone everywhere and will work wonders for those that easily get caught up in the stresses of everyday life..

This book as opened me up to life. Forgiveness and understanding of people and why we choose to do what we do. Knowledge brings love and compassion back into decisions that would otherwise be negative energy.

Forget about finding a therapist, read this book with an open heart and “you” become your own therapist. The book puts everything so clearly that it slowly guides you to a better “you”! Highly recommended

I enjoyed this book very much. The ideas presented really gave me perspective and helped me with my spiritual journey. I was, however, turned off towards the end by the "God" talk and the Christian direction that it went in, as I am not a Christian and tying in these concepts with something I don't believe was kind of a bummer because I was truly enjoying it. But besides that, I would highly recommend it. Plus this has led me to the book I'm reading now, The Power of Now and I am really enjoying it now.

I was very interested for the first half but it turned into a very religious Christian spin which was a massive turn off I'd have been very impressed if the author managed to write a book without turning into typical preaching

Unfortunately, I simply could not listen to this book because the narrator was such a distraction that I could barely concentrate on the message. I loved listening to The Surrender Experiment which Singer narrated himself. The Untethered Soul would have been amazing to have heard the author instead. I have now bought the paperback version so I didn't have to listen to Peter Berkrot's sing-song version.

Very thought provoking, giving the reader lots to think about and contemplate. I now have an inner roommate that I acknowledge and do my best to just observe, instead of listen to, as though It's voice was truth, it's a trip to consider really!

Excellent book. Explaining principles using real life situations helped me understand the meaning. The narration was dramatic which I liked though there were portions where it became difficult to hear.

This book set me on the path to an amazing journey. I’ve gone back to it many times. Looking at your thoughts from an observer, can help center ourselves and offers a better understanding of your true identity.

A truly life transformational book (if your soul is ready for it)! I have been on a spiritual awakening journey for over 10 years, and doing a lot of reading and studying, so I can say I was ready for the content and had many "AHAA" moments throughout the book. I feel so much lighter and happier now as I am applying the wisdom presented in the book. The content truly changed the way I look at life now and I find myself much more "aware" of all forms of energy. I dont let negative energy get stuck in me, but now just let is pass through or I choose to spiritually/energetically protect myself when I know I will be surrounded by new people and new energy that might be very strongly negative. The author doesn't teach this in the book, but I do find it an important practice. More importantly however, is to gain the power and knowledge on how to control your own mind as that can produce all sorts of negative and self-limiting energy (some of which is absolutely absurd). As Mr.Singer advises, meditation truly is the best tool for gaining control over your mind and soul, thus i wholeheartedly recommend every reader to learn how to meditate. In my opinion, the best way to learn is to go to a 10 day silent meditation retreat! It will change your life, and put the content of this book into deeper perspective. God Bless all of you!

This book is really great. It has a coaching aspect that uses a fair amount of repetition, which I like. The narrator is very good and there is a lot of humor in the way that the concepts are presented.

I wasn’t able to finish this audiobook due to the narrator. Michael Singer’s The Surrender Experiment was much better since he narrated it himself. This narrator ends too many sentences in a whisper so that I can’t understand what he’s saying, even turning the volume all the way up. Yes, I have a mild hearing loss and wear hearing aids, but I’ve never had this problem with any other audiobooks (and I listen to 2 or 3 per week). I wish Singer would redo this with his own narration.

Excellent book. This is the most down to earth explanation of Buddhisty, esoteric concepts I've ever encountered. The author uses common life analogies to teach grander lessons. He makes 'the path' graspable. Great book!
