 Loving What Is - Byron Katie August 7, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I whole heartedly agree with the previous reviewers..this book too has profoundly changed my life ! I have read quite a few self help books but Katie I have found is the only one so far that puts things in a real simple and down to earth manner. Not some airy fairy spiritual thing...the only way really for people to gain clarity over their seemingly negative ways is to discover the truth for themselves and this she does so brilliantly. I found The Power Of Now life transforming, this goes even beyond that..for those who still don't quite "get it" with the likes of Tolle, Dwyer, Virtue and so many others, including Law of Attraction books, they should definately give this book a go. I am also in the process of ordering her other books. She is truly a gift to the world and also the way in which she interacts with people, on their level, from prisoners to Chief Execs...amazing...BUY THIS BOOK !
 A thoroughly irritating book designed for emotional illiterates May 27, 2008

I became so irritated with this book that I felt like throwing it at the cat, which I would never do, because I love the cat. The conversations in it were with people who were quite unbelievably immature and emotionally illiterate and Katie patronises them horribly by constantly calling them "sweetheart" , when what they needed, to my mind, was a sharp kick up the backside. It is glaringly obvious that it is just stupid to create problems for oneself by failing to relate sympathetically to other people when there are real problems out there over which we have no control, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, droughts, epidemics and sudden death from accident or disease. My reactions to the book were Yuck - get a brain! and why are some Americans so simplistic?

I was a bit puzzled by this book at first - I thought the four questions were too simple. But by the time I reached the end of the book I had got it - a profound change occurs almost without you realising. Byron Katie's work is really a radical form of cognitvie therapy which makes you aware that almost all of our 'problems' and the negativity we feel is caused by our thoughts. I came across this book through a recommendation from Eckhart Tolle, and have come across other great books through him, such as Steve Taylor's The Fall The Fall:the Insanity of the Ego in Human History and the Dawning of a New Era: The Insanity of the Ego in Human History and the Dawning of a New Era
Superb and to the point February 11, 2008

Excellent practical steps to question one's thoughts and to enquire as to whether they are true, helpful and what possibilities lie behind one's thoughts. Her word for work written dialogues with individuals bring to life and illustrate the power and simplicity of 'the work' superbly. She also concisely explains the principles behind her simple and elegant approach. As she says 'Four questions that can change your life'.

After reading a few chapters, i knew i had come across a real gem,and ordered my own copy...
The case histories are more than helpful and really bring it to life. if you log onto thework.com you see videos of katie in action its brill
I have been in therepy for 6 months and have made loads of progress. however in one week of reading this book, the way i see the world has changed so much.. its brilliant.
This book is worth your time and money.
hope this helps.
