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.©2007 Michael A. Singer.

Editorial Review

There is a voice inside all of us. Are you listening? The Untethered Soul, by Michael A. Singer explores what it means not only to find yourself, but to align with your inner voice in order to experience true freedom and an unencumbered fullness of being.

Singer presents a compelling audiobook and spiritual guide that is less about doctrines and beliefs as it is about wellness, mindfulness, and a search inward. His ideas are rooted in the idea that becoming untethered is less about learning a skill, and more about rediscovering your inner self, and ridding your life of the distractions that inhibit freedom and pure mindfulness.

Michael Singer is the founder of the meditation centre, Temple of the Universe. His work focuses on both yoga and meditation in a space free from religion or specific belief, in order to emphasize the central nature of finding inner peace. Both The Untethered Soul and his 2015 work The Surrender Experiment were New York Times bestsellers, garnering much praise and following.

The audiobook opens by encouraging the listener to listen to the ‘voice within’. In this clever and relatable exercise, the listener is able to pause, acknowledge a sense of self, and thus open their mind to an idea of self-awareness and identity that may have previously been overlooked. In this way, Singer explores the self, the greater meaning of life, and theories of the mind from an internal angle. The aim is not so much to teach, as to turn the listener inward, and rediscover the self, the Untethered Soul, that has always been within.

I am in recovery and this is the perfect book to take me even further. I don't think this book would be right for a novice on the spiritual path, but definitely right on for me at this point. I highly recommend!

It’s such an amazing book and definitely the one I have listened the most (prob about 15 times now). The more you read it/listen to it, the more parts make sense and “click”. So many aha moments. The narrator is good as well and easy to listen too. It’s a must read!
