Thank you.

Wow, how lucky we are.

Happy you enjoyed it. She was one of my favorite guests to interview. Check out some of my other interviews, published on Thrive Global, under "Claudia Mason Presents..." and "#strokeofgenius"

I dont think the MSM would cover smth healing like this.

Donovon Ceaser Yes I agree. Thank you

Really happy for you👌

How did you go about doing it? The things I've seen Katie says not to do on ourselves. But that's where I have to most problems. Thank you!

Such gems! Byron is so wonderful to listen to. Thank you.

@@alexismiller8978 Thank you 🙏

Yes thank you.

thanks, would u recommend this as an intro for people (my friends) who don't know about Katies approach?

Yes she is. Thank you.

Elni Rigas Thank you! 🙏

have you brought this writing to the four questions and turnaround? 🌻

@@urbanlovesrural as it doesn't cause me stress, no!

the work is not reserved for only our stressors 🌻

@@urbanlovesrural I feel blessed to have been in their company ..I do Byron Katie work on things which cause me suffering and am inspired by those who don't suffer and I understand this is threatening for some ...if that bothers me , I try and use the tools at my disposable...one of which is the work ...I love Byron Katie and the work is one of the things which works for me ...May everyone be free from stress, unhappiness, discontent in whatever way works for them ...for the vast majority of us this takes, time , effort, great dligence, honesty and open mindedness😊💙 ..peace and love

Thank you Sheila Kirwan.

Doesn't she?! Powerful lady

Being happy seems to be kind of good for you apparently...

I hear you. I find it necessary to have constant contact with my highest good in order to keep my head focused on "the will to good", especially these days. Thank you for your comment.

She is not saying to love "horrendous things" rather to watch your own thoughts and reactions and question them. Questioning our thoughts brings freedom.

@@smilinglynn9584 With freedom comes response-ability

Thank you!

Thank you for your offer, I appreciate it. This interview was the first time there had been such tech problems with sound, frustrating, but my editor did a good job. I will keep you in mind for the future. My Best.

It's a perspective switch to: "there are no wasted years" - look at it differently and perhaps you will come to a peaceful feeling when thinking of "wasted years". The humans throughout history who we label as enlightened had their dark nights of the soul along their own road of years. Remember "comparison is the thief of joy" thank you for your comment.

Thank you! Loved "comparison is the thief of joy".❣

Thank you Teresa Marie 🙏

@@teresamarieinbarrera6267 i don't know if it helps, but ive heard so many stories of, for instance, Beethoven, Bach, Brahms etc., inventors, who it is said they had these talents, aptitudes, affinity & curiosity of "their "subject or chosen field of study as children.i don't know & can't prove it, but is that, could that be a carry over from past lives, maybe?

@@mindsigh4 Thank you for your take on it. Yes, reincarnation and past lives would certainly explain a lot although it's still hard to wrap my head around it. One thing's for sure, we'll never get bored trying to figure out this stuff.😄

Welcome! Thank you.

sean carver Thank you

God Bless you fellow human - I hope you find your way to peace and renewed determination to live

...and fortunately there are plenty of people who don't get upset at people who live for truth. We soldier on for The Good within all of us humans

Claudia Mason true. I don’t know why I choose to focus on the few that always have to stand up and feel offended that someone is not stroking their victim-hood . You’re right. I am one of the people that are so very grateful for the teachers that have pulled me out of the darkness . It’s like we are raised to look at the world in a completely different way and never give it a second thought until someone like Byron Katie comes along and helps to open our eyes . 🥰

Bluejay Koalphin thank you! I’ll look into that. It’s been suggested to me many times now.

She's wonderful.

jerzy kunowski Yes thank you!

Claudia Mason please keep your research and pursuit for enlightenment:) it is all about.

Claudia Mason pls check YT ,,the search for enlightenment,, Rupert Spira, week ago. which starts with amazing !!! and long question from audience. You will be blown away with the question:) about search for enlightenment.

I would definitely not say that the question of enlightenment is becoming mainstream in the west ...increasing but far far from mainstream ....

Sheila Kirwan everybody wants happiness and in this.sense pursuit of enlightenment was always everybody main agenda:)

I believe a friendly universe is a kind, considerate, thoughtful universe.

The universe is friendly, it is what it is.

Thank you for your question. While I can't answer for Katie, I do believe that she would suggest to take any query that is bothering us, or making us suffer (even a little bit) and do The Work using a worksheet that can be found on her website: thework.com

it not about the other person it's about freeing you and taking esponsibility for your part.

Thank you for your comment.

Thank you

humanity won’t survive 6 or 7g. is it true?

TY!

Thank you

Velimir Rodic I believe you’re referring to some static noise? There was a tech glitch on one of the mics that couldn’t be edited out during looping. Fortunately the interview wasn’t lost. You might want to check it out on Thrive Global and see if that’s better.

TasteMyStinkhole you might get something out of doing one of her worksheets for The Work, found one her website. Thanks for your comment.

I have to laugh at your statement. All I can say is to try it yourself. I used the work to process my feelings about my beautiful son's drug addiction. Without the work, I would probably not be here anymore. It is the most powerful process I have ever encountered in my 60 years and I have come across many. This woman is a gift to the world.

@@eternity7477 Are you denying the proven power of the placebo effect? How about hypnosis? Has anyone ever successfully benefitted from hypnosis? Guess what, SELF-hypnosis... convincing yourself of the truthfulness of something based on whatever you FEEL like is convincing evidence... that's all that's needed. How exactly would you distinguish between a self-deluded mind, or hypnotized mind, or a mind under a placebo effect, from an "enlightened" mind?

@@TasteMyStinkholeAndLikeIt DO you think this has anything to do with self-hypnosis? Oh my goodness, you couldn't be more wrong. This is about getting brutally honest with yourself. Not everyone has the courage to do that. The placebo effect doesn't even feature in the work, but the only way one would ever discover it, is to do it yourself. Having said that, I know of people who were not helped at all, mostly because they clung to their believes and continues to justify their feelings and weren't doing the work properly at all Anyhow, it doesn't effect me in anyway whether you want to hold onto your own beliefs or not. The same methods are not suitable for all. I am just deeply grateful that I came across some of her videos any years ago. It certainly changed my life, not on a superficial level, but a deep, straight-to-the-root of the problem way.

Self delusion is the replacing of one thought/belief with a different thought/belief. Self inquiry investigates the source of all thought; it is not, in itself, another thought from which delusion could be made. The Work leads to an absence of thought, and there can be no delusion without thought.

Si mon At no point is there a denial of negativity. You are missing the point my friend. The point is can we maintain a deeper joy in being throughout the polarity of dark and light while we experience what we experience, even if it is sad, angering, shameful. If you are unable right now, that's okay.

Zen-Moose Si mon thank you for both of your comments. I agree with Zen-Moose, well said.

Zen-Moose but as soon as the experience is labeled as negative or sad that in itself is evidence one is no longer in a state of joy.

Si mon My friend, whether a bucket is filled with gold or with shit, does it change the nature of the bucket? Why does every new emotion that fills you change your nature? Because your nature is your emotions. My nature is love and joy, which is the bucket for the gold or the shit. Doesn't change my bucket.

Zen-Moose a bucket lacks sentience 😂 your quaint analogy doesn't negate the fact that a human being in a negative emotional state is not joyful.
