Filled with practical advice, powerful exercises, and fascinating stories from her clinical work, parenting with Presence teaches us how to become the parents we most want to be while raising confident, caring children.

Now Eckhart Tolle launches ‘Eckhart Tolle Editions’ Fifteen years after the publication of the best-selling The Power of Now, one of the world’s leading and most beloved spiritual teachers, joins with New World Library, USA, to launch a new imprint: Eckhart Tolle Editions. Eckhart will identify and develop titles for Eckhart Tolle Editions, most of them written by other teachers and authors he has encountered over his past two decades of teaching. He will write a ‘Foreword’ for each title and use his formidable social media presence — 1.2 million Facebook fans, 345,000 Twitter followers, and 120,000 YouTube subscribers — to promote them. “New World Library publisher, Marc Allen, told me he only publishes what he loves. I told him that there were a lot of little-known works, both old and new, that I love — and the idea of an imprint was born, a chance to publish anything that I find inspiring and worthwhile,” said Eckhart Tolle. “Eckhart Tolle will select a wide variety of powerful, life-changing works to support and publish — some new, some hundreds of years old, and all in some way supporting his vision and powerful teaching,” said Marc Allen. Eckhart Tolle Editions aims to reach a wide audience of spiritual seekers. Yogi Impressions now brings Parenting with Presence by Susan Stiffelman to India – an Eckhart Tolle Edition - for raising conscious, confident and caring kids.
Susan Stiffelman is a unique blend of licensed therapist, credentialed teacher, beloved auntie and down to earth mom. Her book, Parenting Without Power Struggles is based on her work with thousands of parents and children, from celebrities to everyday moms and pops. In her book, Susan offers mainstream, rubber meets the road advice that has been thoroughly tested on kids of all ages and demographics. At the same time, her approach to raising kids falls into step with the understanding of people like Eckhart Tolle and Marianne Williamson who recognize that parenting is in its own way a spiritual journey. She's an adventurer (she took her 15 year old son on a two and a half month trip to Uganda, Tanzania, Australia and New Zealand), a visionary (homeschooled him in his early years when it was considered rather "iffy") and is an outside-the-box thinker (taught herself Hindi as a teenager by calling people named "Singh" out of the phone book!) Diagnosed with the ADHD label, she manages to accomplish more in a week than many do in a month, while maintaining a regular meditation practice and spending serious amounts of time playing. Susan divides her time between Malibu, California with her son (when he's home from college), her dog Rosie, and a full and grateful heart.
