Pressestimmen
Katie's laser-like tough love burns away all illusions. The Times Byron Katie's work is a great blessing for our planet. -- Eckhart Tolle A spiritual innovator for the new millennium. TIME
Kurzbeschreibung
This powerful book is a collection of 23 dialogues with Byron Katie that occurred throughout the United States and Europe. Some of the people who worked with Katie had painful illnesses, others were lovelorn or in messy divorces, some were simply irritated with a colleague or worried about money. What they all had in common was a willingness to question, with Katie's help, the painful thoughts that are the true cause of all suffering. In every case we see how Katie's acute mind and fierce kindness helped each person dismantle for themselves what was felt to be unshakable reality. Although these dialogues make fascinating reading, some are both hilarious and deeply moving at once, they are intended primarily as teaching tools. The result, even in the seemingly most dire situation, can be an unimagined freedom and joy.

Going deeper....
26. Oktober 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
This book is a series of dialogues taken from workshops and seminars, so you get a good flavor of what it would be like to attend one. The dialogues, like The Work, aren't spectator sports. Reading her technique without trying it gets zero results, and reading these dialogues without 'playing along' may also yield very little results. However, if you dive in as an active audience member, these dialogues take you deeper than you may have gone doing The Work on your own.
I first discovered _Loving What Is_ a few years ago when I was going through a tough time, and couldn't get my brain out of the hamsterwheel of 'why did this happen?' 'what did I do wrong?' and most of all 'why can't I get over this?'. In less than an hour of doing The Work, my entire perspective changed. It was almost miraculous. Needless to say, I've been a believer ever since.
This isn't to say I agree with everything Katie says. And I do find her calling everyone 'sweetheart' a bit wearing. She says in one book (and again in this) something to the effect that if her kids ever tell her they won't miss her when she dies she'll celebrate because they'll be 'free.' That's a little harsh, to me. I don't aim to go that far! But that doesn't mean that I can't go a long way on the journey with good results.
The Work isn't easy, and it takes a certain amount of patience and mental flexibility to do it right. In a sense it's a relief to read these dialogues because you realize you're not the only one who reaches these walls in your thinking; and you get to see how Katie helps them break through, which you can then apply yourself.
If you're new to Byron Katie's works, there is a tiny appendix and the Judge Your Neighbor form in the book, but I don't think that's quite enough--doing the 'turn it around' statements is tricky for beginners and the appendix doesn't focus on those. You can learn by careful study of the dialogues, but you may find her website or her earlier books to be more helpful. If you've got her other books, don't pass this one over as quickly as you might. It served as a needed reinforcement for me, and in her parts of the conversations there are plenty of wonderful insights--mine is already heavily underlined.

Byron Katie is amazing!
22. November 2008
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Greetings,
I found this book very useful as a supplement to her online blog. I think I would have been confused by the book had I not already been familiar with her work. There is no substitute for watching her in action. Her kind, empathic approach does not come across in the written script of her work. What is useful about the book is it gives me a way to deeply reflect on some of the ways she handles struggles and resistance from her clients. I'm a business coach, so I find this book a useful way to dissect her work, her theory, and the way she works with clients. I think her four questions are brilliant and I use them with my clients.

Who would you be without your story
26. Juli 2010
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This book was the beginning of a fresh new path for me. I've never been a devotee or follower of one particular phiosophy or guru and Byron Katie doesn't ask for that. She simply points to the path of inquiry into our thoughts. Her no-nonsense kindhearted loving approach, is clear and puts all responsibility right where it belongs, with each and everyone of us. The formula is simple, 4 questions and a turn around, but these small steps can lead to a complete transformitive perspective. Her questions are called "The Work". This Work can be a huge step on the path of ending suffering and bringing peace. She has several other books. Most people suggest the first might be "Loving What is" Either one might just be a life changer for you If you'd like to notice how you opperate with your friends and loved ones. She gives us so much in this book and does it with love and a beautiful sense of humor.
