Byron Katie on What Is and What Isn't, What Hurts and What Doesn't

Reality is kinder than our ideas about it, says Byron Katie. She compares emotion to a temple bell that wakes us up, urging us to question our thoughts and beliefs.

About Byron Katie
In 1986, at the bottom of a ten-year spiral into depression, rage, and self-loathing, Byron Katie woke up one morning to a state of constant joy that has never left her. She realized that when she believed her stressful thoughts, she suffered, but that when she questioned them, she didn’t suffer, and that this is true for every human being. Her simple yet powerful process of inquiry is called The Work.
The Work consists of four questions and the turnarounds, which are a way of experiencing the opposite of what you believe. When you question a thought, you see around it to the choices beyond suffering. Katie has been bringing The Work to millions of people for more than thirty years. Her public events, weekend workshops, five-day intensives, nine-day School for The Work, and 28-day residential Turnaround House have helped people all over the world begin to end their suffering.
Eckhart Tolle says, “Byron Katie’s Work is a great blessing for our planet.” Time magazine calls Katie “a spiritual innovator for the new millennium.” At thework.com, you will find free materials to download, audio and video clips, a schedule of events, a free helpline, and much more.
