Do You Get Frustrated When You Don’t Know How To Interpret A Stressful Event And Respond To It?
Do you ever feel like you’re sitting here in the dark, hoping you will have the wisdom to know what to do? Wouldn’t your life be much happier if you understood how to find your own truth in any stressful situation?
If you don’t know how to question the thoughts that cause you stress, you end up becoming a victim of them. Here’s an opportunity to learn how to question your stressful thoughts, so that the wisdom that they mask can be heard.
Through The Work of Byron Katie, your stressful thoughts become your teachers instead of your enemies. Your stressful thoughts become the entryway into meditation, instead of being a hindrance to your life.
The Work of Byron Katie Is A Way To Find Your Freedom
“The Work,” as it is often called, is a simple set of questions that you can apply to any stressful thought or situation. When you “work” a stressful thought this way, your mind and heart expand as they discover what is really true for you.
This website is an introduction to The Work. What it is. How to do it. And how to use The Work to find peace in any stressful situation.
You’ll find personal stories here of how The Work has helped me find peace in many situations, and how it has helped my clients and friends. You’ll find lots of information on how to become proficient in The Work. And you’ll find opportunities here to do the work with me and others.
But I Thought The Work Was Simple. Why Do I Need So Much Information?
The Work is simple, very simple. But its simplicity sometimes makes us undervalue it. And we miss the power of this simple tool. That’s why it helps to read the experiences of other fellow students in The Work. It helps you track yourself.
The Work is simple, but it is subtle. And the subtle nuances of this simple process take some time to learn. By reading and watching how others do The Work, by studying the nuances of the process, and by doing The Work yourself, you will soon become proficient at it. And you will have a ready tool for finding peace in any stressful situation.
The information you find on the website, and in The Work As Meditation Newsletter, has one purpose: to help you stay inspired to use this simple, yet powerful, tool for spiritual growth.
The Work Is A Spiritual Practice (Though You Don’t Have To Be Spiritual To Do It)
You might not have thought of The Work as a spiritual practice. And it really doesn’t matter. The Work is simply a set of questions. It doesn’t care if you think of yourself as spiritual or down to earth.
It works because the questions of The Work get you to look more closely at the beliefs that are causing you stress, and to consider if they are really true or not. This is self-inquiry.
If you have never thought of The Work as a possible tool for spiritual development, consider what these spiritual teachers have to say about The Work.
“Byron Katie’s Work is a great blessing for our planet. It acts like a razor-sharp sword that cuts through illusions and enables you to know for yourself the timeless essence of your being.” Eckhart Tolle, author of The Power of Now
“The Work of Byron Katie is a completely accessible user-friendly form of the ancient way of spiritual inquiry, a simple method that anyone can use to untangle difficulties in work, love and family, and at the same time it opens the deepest spiritual directions.” John Tarrant, author of The Light Inside the Dark

“Let us, on both sides, lay aside all arrogance. Let us not, on either side, claim that we have already discovered the truth. Let us seek it together as something which is known to neither of us. For then only may we seek it, lovingly and tranquilly, if there be no bold presumption that it is already discovered and possessed.” — Saint Augustine
