Our guest this week is renowned author and speaker Byron Katie. Her work, referred to as 'The Work', is a simple yet profound method of self-inquiry aimed at identifying and questioning negative thoughts that cause suffering.
At its core are four questions: Is it true? Can you absolutely know it’s true? How do you react when you believe that thought? Who would you be without it?
By moving these thoughts from the mind to paper and reflecting deeply, individuals can access greater clarity, love, and wisdom - and freedom from ego.
Katie emphasizes integrity and fearlessness in this process, offering her tools freely to empower individuals to transform depression, fear, and limiting beliefs into peace.
We talk:
- A night on the floor that changed Katie's life
- The fallacy of a positive mindset
- Attending to the projector not the projected
- Seeing all as beauty
- Knowing that pain is an illusion
