The Surrender Experiment - by Michael A Singer (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - The author of The Untethered Soul and Living Untethered tells the astonishing true story about the spiritual harmony and personal happiness he found when he just let go--now in hardcover for the first time and featuring a new afterword and chapter

"With his hallmark precision and clarity Michael Singer reveals how everyday life, doing business in the world, and spiritual practice can be synchronized to carry us into the heart of life's unimaginable perfection."--Jack Canfield, co-author of The Success Principles and co-creator of the Chicken Soup for the Soul(R) series

As a young doctoral student studying economics in Florida, Michael A. Singer experienced a deep spiritual awakening and made the pivotal decision to relinquish his personal fears and desires and simply let life unfold before him. In The Surrender Experiment, he shares how embracing the flow of life led him to extraordinary success, sustained him through times of crisis, and allowed him to cultivate profound inner peace--whether as a young man pursuing a life of solitude in the woods, the founder of a thriving spiritual community in Florida, or the CEO of a billion-dollar medical software company.

As he takes you through his grand experiment, Singer demonstrates how surrender is the key to a peaceful and harmonious life. His remarkable and unexpected personal experiences will challenge your deepest assumptions--teaching you how to stop trying to make the world conform to your desires, to let go of the need to control, and to place your trust in life's inherent perfection. In a new afterword exclusive to this special hardcover edition, Singer reflects on the events of his life in the decade since his book's publication, sharing more insights about how the concept of surrender has enhanced his life.

Thought-provoking and moving, The Surrender Experiment will inspire you to seek the calm and freedom that comes from letting go.
