Meetup Description: Curious about 'The Work of Byron Katie?'?
Eckhart Tolle calls The Work "a great blessing for our planet".
Here's an opportunity to experience the profoundly simple 4 question inquiry process that noted author Wayne W. Dyer says "has been enormously helpful to me personally." It's a great 'WORK'shop for anyone drawn to Self-Improvement, Personal Inquiry and Transformation: An Introduction to 'The Work of Byron Katie?'. Jeff Jones presents and facilitates, in Pasadena: Tuesday, July 8th, 7 pm, at HEART & SOUL HEALING ARTS CENTER, 1167 North Lake Avenue, Pasadena, CA 91104 (www.mapquest.com) (626) 798-8337 $15 special reduced fee, required by the venue.
Someone Jeff facilitated last week said, "Since I started coming to your Work groups I am feeling a lot less stressed than forever; sometimes it just floats away. The guilt is much more light. Compared to before I am doing a lot better, feeling a lot stronger."
Jeff, an active facilitator of The Work for nine years, will show people how to meet their most stressful thoughts and limiting beliefs with 4 Questions and the Turnarounds. "Remarkable, palpable shifts can be seen in people just from their answering the 4 Questions from their own truth, being present to their current experience," says Jeff. "This is not a training or belief system; it's more akin to an active, heartfelt cognitive meditation." Please RSVP if you can. Byron Katie's books displayed.
Yes, Eckhart Tolle says, "Byron Katie's Work ... acts like a razor-sharp sword that cuts through ... illusion, " and thus is "a great blessing for our planet". Find out for yourself at this San Gabriel Valley venue and event; RSVP suggested. (626) 355-2923. Take Lake Ave. off the 210 Freeway; head north, up slope; it's 1 1/2 blocks south of Washington, on the left/west.
"This event will be like a combination of discussion, presentation, and activity; it has elements of all three, and can often be highly humorous, yet thoroughly heart-warming. We've had over 36 people at my recent 'Work' events. The Work of Byron Katie (TM) (www.thework.com) can help one move through acute, troubling thoughts about others, life, themselves. "Come experience this amazing gift from Ms. Katie. It's not therapy; we could say it's a simple meditation that can be employed by people anywhere, anytime, about any vexing aspect of life. The 4 questions can help the mind meet itself, its stressful thoughts, with understanding. It is based on the book 'Loving What Is', by Byron Katie, a southern California native, and Stephen Mitchell, her husband, a well-known writer. I have facilitated this process at local groups around greater Los Angeles for many years. Events happen at local venues and homes. Currently we have meetings in Pasadena, Sierra Madre, Sherman Oaks, Venice, and the Fairfax District. Please contact me about scheduling updates, and/or if you wish to be on our email contact list: [address removed]"
An attendee: "I went in knowing really nothing about the process and came out of it a completely different (and better!) person! This was TRULY a life-changing experience! I left the meeting feeling truly happy for the first time in YEARS, literally... This has worked! The people there were completely supportive and seemed truly caring? It was the kind of environment necessary for TRUE change to be able to occur. I REALLY can't say enough about it! If you NEED change in your life and you are TRULY ready to be HONEST about it - this is the way to go!"
