“A spiritual innovator for
the new millennium.”
TIME magazine

“Katie's laser-like tough love burns away all illusions.”
The Times of London

“Byron Katie’s Work is a great blessing for our planet. The root cause of suffering is identification with our thoughts, the ‘stories’ that are continuously running through our minds. The Work acts like a razor-sharp sword that cuts through that illusion and enables you to know for yourself the timeless essence of your being.
Joy, peace, and love emanate from it as your natural state.”
Eckhart Tolle
author, The Power of Now

“Byron Katie is one of the truly great and inspiring
teachers of our time.
She has been enormously
helpful to me personally.
I love this very wise woman.”

In a letter from Helsinki, Finland, J.V. writes:
"...two groundbreaking Stanford University pain syndrome experts consider Byron Katie's approach the best form of Cognitive Therapy. In the new revised 5th Edition of A Headache in the Pelvis (pp. 326–330), which came out in May 2008, Stanford psychologist David Wise, Ph.D., and urologist Rodney Anderson, M.D., refer to Albert Ellis' Rational-Emotive Therapy and Aaron Beck's Cognitive Therapy and then write (in their italics): 'The best form of Cognitive Therapy, in our opinion, is offered in The Work of Byron Katie, who provides an approach to disarming catastrophic thinking by means of a process that one can do oneself. This is the approach that we recommend.' They then describe the procedure, adding: 'Our description of this process is rarely sufficient to become proficient at it. We discuss this method in our monthly 6-day clinics. Information specifically about this cognitive therapy work can be found at www.thework.com and in the books of Byron Katie.’"

“Byron Katie's teachings
and everyday life
are pure wisdom.
Her Work shows us
the way to inner peace,
and she directs us there,
fearlessly, relentlessly, and
with utmost generosity.
I have rarely seen anyone
—spiritual teachers included— embody wisdom as powerfully as Katie in her passionate embrace of each and every moment.”
Roshi Bernie Glassman

“Katie’s Work is a
wonderful, transformative practice for anyone interested in spiritual growth.”
Lama Surya Das
author, Awakening the Buddha Within

“Good Lord! Where did Byron Katie come from? She’s the real McCoy. Her Work is amazingly effective—a simple, straightforward antidote to the suffering we unnecessarily create for ourselves. She asks us to believe nothing, but provides a surprisingly effective and simple way to cut through the tangle of delusions we wrap ourselves in.”

“Suppose you could find a simple way to embrace your life with joy, stop arguing with reality, and achieve serenity in the midst of chaos. That is what Loving What Is offers. It is no less than a revolutionary way to live your life. The question is: are we brave enough to accept it?”
Erica Jong

"I just attended the 2008 Mental Cleanse. Since returning, I have done The Work with several friends to help them see things differently. The change in my understanding of and attitude toward addiction has been exponential. Although I have been in Al-Anon for 17 years, The Work is like Al-Anon on steroids. I did an intervention with my son 6 months ago. He did not choose to get "help," so I did what I had been told to do by the intervention specialist and cut off all contact with him. I went to the Mental Cleanse in an effort to come to an honest understanding of where I stood with the non-contact. The turnarounds were mind-blowing. We met last week and had the most beautiful exchange. I was able to be completely honest and just love him where and how he is. It was a special meeting for both of us. He cried as did I, thanked me several times for my words, and I told him he has been my greatest teacher. I made no demands, no conditions, and we will continue to see each other. This feels so good, so loving, and so right. I look forward to the next chapter with him. It is stunning to me how I can look at the recent suicide of a friend's child so differently from the way most others are doing."
—L.B.
