Kim Eng is the creator of Presence through Movement (PTM), a unique, powerful, and practical approach to accessing the present moment through the body and through movement. This meditative movement practice was inspired by and draws from the ancient mystical teachings of qigong, t’ai chi, yoga, as well as the spiritual insights of Eckhart Tolle-yet it is not affiliated with any particular religion, culture, or form of yoga.
As a facilitator of Presence through Movement, Kim travels and works extensively with her teaching partner Eckhart Tolle, the author of the best selling books The Power of Now and A New Earth. Kim has developed a teaching approach that incorporates and complements Eckhart’s teachings. Her work translates these teachings into a structured, embodied practice to support the arising of presence and the awakening of consciousness.
Kim has offered retreats and workshops in North America, Europe, and Australia. She is the author of two instructional DVDs on Presence through Movement-Qi Flow Yoga and Yin Yoga-and of two audio-learning programs, Meditations for A New Earth and Resist Nothing, featuring practical ways to overcome our inner obstacles to presence.
Kim was born in Vancouver, Canada. Her spiritual search began in the early 1980s. She met Eckhart in 1998, and soon after underwent a transformational spiritual experience while attending one of his retreats. This was followed by seven years of intense spiritual training, after which she began counseling and teaching.
Kim sees our true nature-our essence-as living in and through our human bodies. Through movement and through our bodies, we can return to and awaken to pure presence and oneness-to who we are beyond the thinking mind and egoic sense of self-accessing infinite power and creativity.
“When we are connected to Source, and body-mind-spirit are aligned-when we realize who we are at the core of our being-we blossom into our life purpose,” she says. “We cannot help but do so. And that is how we create what Eckhart Tolle calls ‘a new earth."

I have been separated from the kids dad for 5 years he was abusive and belittled me through out relationship - my 17 year old daughter and I was just talking yesterday and I told her I made it through by forgiveness and wishing him the very best. Sincerely. I wish no harm to anyone. What that type of mindset say I have been supporting my children 100% financially and emotionally. They are a gift to me, and I Thank god I have them in my life. I will go through raging storm if it’s to keep them safe but god have been so giving and kind. People around me have Been amazing; my family and friends I am very blessed. This momma of two keep moving forward with a smile and peace in my mind ♥️

After listening to many spiritual teachers, you are the most brilliant for me. You just get to the point in a practical, loving way. Just feel your emotions and wisdom comes!! Thank you ❤️🌱

[@susanmadison6466]

Kim, you bring it all together! Your feminine presence, the pure tranquillity of your voice, the teaching of the practical techniques to connect with the inner space and your spiritual teachings that join with Eckhart's is phenomenal. As a woman with a Baptist beginning I often find myself getting the Holy ghost and praising God with both of you😅

[@nancyperrier3263]

Wow! Thank you! I was raised to forgive, I went through a bitter and long divorce about 10 years ago and am still working on forgiveness, you made me realize that by denying my emotions it will never happen. I will go through and allow my anger, frustration, betrayal and all my feelings attached to this. It's as if you gave me permission to have these ugly feelings. Thank you❤

[@renatab4588]

Kim is so right. I'm lucky enough to have reached the same point with my ex.... I now don't care about him (saying these words with compassion and not negativity) in the slightest.... I don't care about whether he's married again, whether he's alive or dead..... I just let go of him and that part of my life....💗

Humpty Dumpty. 😆🤣❤

[@obscurum6]

Some divorces cannot be settled with a feeling of love. It would be great if they could but some people have got away from abuse or similar trauma, for those there was no love in that relationship. They were used and abused. In those breakups loving the ex can be psychological damaging. People should go through their true emotions but not force themselves to love their abusive ex!

[@stephthinks3109]

I think when she says love it doesn't mean "I love you, let's be together" it's the love that is for all human beings in our shared humanity and fallibility. But abuse or trauma or toxic: get away and stay away first and foremost.

[@obscurum6]

@@stephthinks3109 I knew she meant love in a humanity sense. 🙄 And you misread my comment. I am also using the same meaning. Whether you like it or not there are different forms of formed beings in this universe and there are some, such as narcs and psychopaths whom you cannot love in any form. In fact in the same way they do not grasp what empathy is they don't not understand the energy of love. You're not only wasting your time and energy but you are making yourself bait for them. If you had a narc ex you would understand that. They would laugh in your face for wishing them well while they abuse you. Many people will tell you their narc ex carries on tormenting them, their kids and turning everyone they love against them while alienating their kids and dragging them through custody battles for years. If you want to send love to that type of ex you are nuts and deserve all you get when you meet the next narc you get involved with through your denial of exactly what you are dealing with.

[@talye]

@@obscurum6 I disagree with you. I love my narc ex and my narc parents. I have no relationship with them but I love them even more because I understand why they are that way and I feel sorry for them because they didn’t realise they had a choice and the power to overcome their trauma and abuse they suffered within their own childhoods. I’m also in a court battle with my narc ex regarding our children - this is the third time round and I have total peace about it. Yes he tried to turn everyone against me including our children but it has not worked out. It has taken over 10 years for people to see but now they all know the truth including our children. I realised that the pain they inflicted on me was never about me. It was about them. Loving and forgiving them keeps my heart open to ensure I’m not blocking my own energy in order to manifest great things and to remain zen within. I see your comment was 11 months ago so I hope you’ve transcended your comment x

[@obscurum6]

@@talye You are in denial. The pain they inflicted was about YOU as it was inflicted on YOU! You are using displacement as a coping mechanism. It's obvious you have found that lying to yourself is your coping mechanism, which is your choice even though it will damage your mental health in the long run. One day it will occur to you that those people hurt you intentionally, not because of their so called abusive childhood (narcs use that excuse all the time, duh) but because narcs ENJOY THE PLEASURE of them hurting you. You should note that the majority of people who are abused in childhood do not become narcs, Duh. You will also be burdened with massive amounts of guilt when you finally wake up and realise that the love energy you have been sending to "your narcs" is just energy vampirism and they have used the pain of your children through their relationship with you, which you have allowed to continue by making excuses for them while your children have been in the cross fire of their malicious custody tactics. What you do to yourself is your business but shame on you for feeding love energy to people who have made your children suffer. You carry on "keeping your heart open" to you narc vampires, 🙄, they will bleed you dry of chakra energy while you numb yourself with BS excuses for allowing it. 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
