Our Services Counseling What is the Work of Byron Katie and will it help me?

The Work of Byron Katie is transformational.

What Byron Katie now refers to as "The Work," is a process of personal inquiry which examines the thoughts that keep us stuck in unhealthy paradigms of relating to the world around us.

Her work consists of 4 questions that she reports "can change your life,"

For example. Complete the following sentence:

I am ______________ (hurt, mad, angry, hurt, frustrated, broken hearted, etc.) at _______________ because ____________________________________________________________________.

Now ask yourself the following 4 questions:

  1. Is it true?
  2. Can you absolutely know that it's true?
  3. How do you react, behave, or what happens when you believe this thought?
  4. Who would you be without the thought?

Now turn this thought around.

  • To yourself: I hurt me.
  • To the other: I hurt him.
  • To the opposite: He didn't hurt me.

and provide three authentic examples of how each turnaround is true for you.

If you'd like to experience "the work" please contact me and we can engage in the process of freeing yourself from the thoughts that keep you stuck.
