The Work 101 - A Stress Management Course - Start Anytime

Stop managing your stress and start eliminating the root cause of it. Learn one of the most effective ways to deal with stress of any kind, The Work of Byron Katie.

The Work 102 - A Course In Listening - Coming Again January

Learn how to join hearts with another person without being a distraction to them and without getting enmeshed with them. Learn the subtle art of spoken work: it is neither coaching nor sitting passively. Deepen your own work and overcome your fears and resistance to this beautiful form of meditation. 
 
Learn how to go deeper in your spoken work sessions, experience less stress when doing The Work with a partner, and develop the ability to hold someone selflessly in their work. This six-week course will give you both understanding and practice in the art of spoken work.

Drop-In Session Schedule

Drop-in Sessions are available for Inquiry Circle members and participants in The Work 101 and The Work 102. We meet on Zoom. 

During written work Drop-in Sessions we meet, say hi, and then go on mute to do The Work in written form. We work together but individually like in a library or coffee shop. 

Spoken Work Drop-in Sessions are also on Zoom. We pair up with whoever else is there and do The Work in the breakout rooms. Partners each get to do The Work for 30 minutes and facilitate the other for thirty minutes. These sessions help in doing The Work on a regular basis.
