WHY THE WORK?

Byron Katie is one of the world’s great teachers.  Having discovered the underlying source of unhappiness, she created a deep but simple practice for supporting people in their quest for freedom from all forms of stress, fear, sadness, anger, judgment, loneliness, boredom, and lack of direction or purpose in life.  


The Work is not therapy; it is a form of meditative inquiry.  In her desire to move The Work in the world, making its methodology available to people speaking various languages and living wherever they may happen to be, Katie has created the Institute for the Work, through which she has certified hundreds of facilitators, working in the major languages of the planet, all trained to support people in their quest for lives of peace, joy, compassion, love, and grace.


The Work works. Test this assertion for yourself. As a New York Certified Facilitator, I have worked for several years one-on-one and in couples facilitation as well as in group workshops.  It is a never-ending joy to share in the experience of someone waking up to reality.
