Seller's Description:
Like New in Fine jacket. Size: 6x1x9; With brief gift inscription by Katie and signed by both authors (scarce thus). In the midst of a normal life, Katie became increasingly depressed, and over a ten-year period sank further into rage, despair, and thoughts of suicide. Then one morning, she woke up in a state of absolute joy, filled with the realization of how her own suffering had ended. The freedom of that realization has never left her, and now in Loving What Is you can discover the same freedom through The Work. Loving What Is will show you step-by-step, through clear and vivid examples, exactly how to use this revolutionary process for yourself. You'll see people do The Work with Katie on a broad range of human problems, from a wife ready to leave her husband because he wants more sex, to a Manhattan worker paralyzed by fear of terrorism, to a woman suffering over a death in her family. Many people have discovered The Work's power to solve problems; in addition, they say that through The Work they experience a sense of lasting peace and find the clarity and energy to act, even in situations that had previously seemed impossible.
this book has simple yet very powerful ideas that really can be life changing. I am enjoying learning to use them and growing as a result.

great program
The tapes and cds for 'Love what Is', have been around for a while, and are not easy to find, yet it's still valid. The prices at other outlets are much higher. I'm so glad to have the tapes and really impressed with the options that Alibris offers compared to several other vendors.
I'm doing 'the work' and this program is good, very helpful.

simple ways to find inner peace
Byron Katie provides great wisdom and an easy way to do some self inquiry to turn around the negative beliefs in your mind. Being at peace with what is, is the goal. Great wisdom from a true human being who has been there...

Loving What Is, Or Isn't
Byron Katie simplifies the general concept that nothing matters, there is no reason to stress, and that we are the projector of our own reality. I agree with a lot of what she has to say, but let's face it, we are human and we will react to the things that occur in our lives according to our temperament.
If you want to gain some calming ideas, read this book, if you think you will become master of the universe, you better read it more than once.

Loving What Is
Clearly explains with many examples of "The Work". Many different scenarios were covered from individual situations and thoughts to thoughts and beliefs that were made as small children. This book helped me to get an entirely different perspective on my thought process itself. I especially found freedom from the tyranny of my thoughts with her insights about my thoughts thinking me...much like I am not consciously breathing myself or making my heart beat. So, my thoughts are "thinking me" not vice versa. That idea cut a lot of the strings of attachment I had to my thoughts. Her thoughts about death also have made a big shift in my thinking & fear of death...both my own and others. Powerful ideas to ponder.
