Jumia Books The Power of Letting Go: How to drop everything that’s holding you back  by John Purkiss (Author)

book about overcoming life’s challenges and improving well-being through the practice of letting go and mindfulness. John Purkiss, a former banker and executive search professional, shares his personal journey from clinical depression to transformation through meditation and letting go of ego-driven control. His approach focuses on releasing attachment to material things, expectations, and controlling behaviors to reduce stress and enhance mental clarity, creativity, and happiness.

Purkiss emphasizes that much of human suffering comes from clinging to the past or trying to manipulate outcomes, which exhausts mental and emotional resources. Instead, he teaches being present, surrendering to life's flow, and trusting the process. This leads to better health, stronger relationships, and greater fulfillment. The book blends mindfulness practices, spiritual lessons, and practical advice drawn from Purkiss’s experience as a businessman and meditator, aiming to help readers unlock their potential by letting go of what holds them back.
