A brilliant, honest, and gentle guide that takes you into the now

I have been working on being in the now for more than 15 years. Cory is a real person not a monk or an enlightened master therefore he can take people like you and I and walk them by the hand into the now.
His voice is calm and authentic. These lessons and practices can open the heart and make the moment a source for peace and joy. There is no better gift than this. The hard thing is to convince the ego to let go and accept it. Love has a way.

Cory Allen is walking the talk

Now is the Way is indeed the way to a more clear vision of self. Cory does an admirable job at making the topic of mindful presence accessable, heartfelt, and pragmatic - while also giving a fun insight to the more esoteric exercises for the mind.
I enjoy his humble but DEEP presentation of thought, bringing together decades of life experience and his years of quality brain-picking of science and wellness experts on the cutting edge of the field through his podcast 'The Astral Hustle' to create a truly useful tool in calming the mind's chatter, overcoming unproductive thought patterns and finding a beauty from within, that just may, promise an appreciation for the beauty of Now.

A beautiful gem of mindfulness

What I loved about this book is that Cory Allen speaks about mindfulness in a very approachable and genuine way. He shares tools- meditations and exercises to help the reader learn and grow. I have already started seeing a difference from the few exercises I’ve done. I appreciate the way the author communicates the information in a very easy to follow, open and accessible way. I highly recommend this book!

Amazingly Timely

This book is the book I didn't know I needed in my life. Brilliant. Thanks.

Cory Allen loves us all

So glad I heard about Cory. His light wisdom stretches across whatever medium he chooses to send it through. This book is no different. Love the specific mindfulness practices he sprinkles in here. Presents his wisdom with wit and lightness that is humble and honest. I'm a musician, so I also love that he comes from that background as well. Great book, great dude!

New to meditation

If you are new to meditation there are lot of books out there, of which o have read plenty. Though I am not new to meditation I think this is possible the best place to start. This book is a comprehensive view on meditation and the point of it all. I hope everyone enjoys this book as much as I did.

Now is the right time

The end of the book was particularly and lightning, and I believe useful. It provides not only perspective, but also practical application for some issues that at times have been purely esoteric. I found it to be engaging and useful. I will share it.

NOW is the time to be a Rascal

Wonderful heart-felt book!
Cory has an uncanny ability to playfully navigate both the profound and profane.
A true RASCAL!
Cory's deep and broad perspective of mindfulness are a breath of fresh air in a highly contrived time of being "WOKE".

His podcast, music/binaural beats & guided meditations are enjoyable as well!

Meditative and spiritual

Great for those wanting to learn Techniques for Meditation ,Breathing and tips for Daily Life to get out of your head

Corey is able to clearly describe complex ideas in a very accessible way and serves us up so much actionable wisdom in a relatively short book. It was very informative and enjoyable and I would strongly recommend it to anyone who is interested in the world of mindfulness/meditation. I feel like this book has the potential to be absolutely life changing for seekers fresh on their path. Also, it is an absolute treat to have the author reading the book. Check out the sample to hear just howt incredibly calming and beautiful his voice is. Thank you so much Corey for putting this out into the world, I'm sure it will help many on their journey!
