What is The Work?

The Work is a simple and powerful process developed by Byron Katie - an American woman who woke up one morning after years of depression and suddenly realized that it wasn't the situation that caused her anger, pain, or grief, but how she felt about that situation. It wasn't that other people were making her feel uncomfortable, but what she was thinking and believing about them that was throwing her off balance. It turned out to be a radical change in her life! And by now, also in mine and in that of many others.

Every time you experience tension, discomfort or frustration it's because you hold on to an opinion or a thought. As soon as you examine that thought, it dissolves and loses its power over you. What remains are new possibilities and clarity about what is important for your life. In short, you become happier and experience more inner peace.

I will gladly take you along in the search for your truth!
