In this episode of the Wiggle Room Podcast, you’ll hear a man questioning the thought, “I’m not safe.” His partner of 20 years recently left him and his dog was run over by a car and killed. The feeling for him is a lack of safety. Listen as he does his work.

The dialogues and questions in the first part of this episode are taken from one of my weekly Open Sessions. You can be a participant in Open Sessions each week to do The Work with me or ask your questions. This is an unedited recording so you can experience the natural process of exploration using The Work of Byron Katie (4 Questions and Turnarounds).
Next, there is a question about how to handle a client who is resistant to doing The Work.
In the second part of the recording, you’ll hear me reading the newsletter article, Interruptions Are Tests. Are interruptions stressful for you? Listen as I add and share ideas not included in the original article.
I also encourage you to subscribe to my newsletter to get new articles like this one each week.
If you prefer video, you can watch the following sections of the podcast in HD video.
If you enjoy listening or watching as participants go through the process of doing The Work, you may find that this form of meditation is a match for you. Doing The Work yourself brings this experience to a whole new level.
Want to learn how to hold yourself and others in this meditative practice? Take The Work 101, my nine-week (or nine-month) online course for learning and deepening your practice of The Work. Or join us for a weekend virtual retreat.
