Tolle's method is wrong

Well if it works for you, what can I say?

But I propose a different approach which is: Solving problems (mental illusions) and Now should come naturally without forcing oneself.

I will certainly not try to focus my attention to objects, my breathing etc. It doesn't work.

It should come naturally.
