Publisher's Summary

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the author of The Untethered Soul and Living Untethered comes the astonishing true-life story about the spiritual harmony and personal happiness he found when he just let go.

“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® series

In The Surrender Experiment, Michael A. Singer tells the extraordinary story of what happened when, after a deep spiritual awakening, he decided to relinquish his personal fears and desires and simply let life unfold before him. Singer shares how this pivotal decision to embrace 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 making the outside world conform to your desires, let go of the need to control everything, and place your trust in life’s perfection.

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

What the critics say

“A lone voice in the modern wilderness calling for surrender instead of striving, Singer shows how surrendering to life does not mean giving up our dreams.”—Shawn Achor, happiness researcher and New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Advantage

“Only the rarest of books has the power to clearly explain the difference between a human being and a human doing, and why that distinction is so important. The Surrender Experiment is such a book. Inspiring, authentic, and intensely compelling.”—Dean Radin, author of The Conscious Universe

“Michael Singer writes a beautiful, touching memoir on the amazing power of surrender in his life. With courage, spunk, and thoughtfulness, he has reached beyond the status quo to dare to trust life and surrender to its ultimate perfection.”—Judith Orloff MD, author of The Ecstasy of Surrender

A life changing Story

A great book about the power of going with the flow and surrendering to life events as they will unfold before your eyes. An amazing life journey. I already read this book twice in its physical form and begun applying the concepts in my own life. I can tell you mine already changed. Its about trusting the amazing power of the universe over the limited power of our minds. Mastering the art of being mindful and ready to receive the great messages of our universe. Its about living fully. I'm so grateful for Michael A Singer the author of this book. Thank you for sharing your miraculous life experiences with us.

life's long journey is to surrender, indeed.

I read Michael's Untethered Soul, and I was just in awe of what he had been going through while publishing his book. I too am on my journey of surrender, and I do my best to approach each and every situation in such way. its wonderful to have learned of this hardship he had gone through and know he and his team came out unharmed by the sometimes wary justice system. let's hope the constitution works in favor to many more who are being challenged by the government, and are innocent, and as truthful as they can be.
thank you.
