The Work
The Work Method by Byron Katie
One of the main methods Shirayam employs in his trainings, lectures, courses, and consultations is the Byron Katie's The Work method. This method provides a journey of self-discovery and personal growth, guiding people to question their thoughts and find inner peace.
Shirayam met Byron Katie in 2003 and specialized in The Work method through the 5 in-person The Schools, in California and Florida, as well as No Body, New Years Cleanse, Parenting, and Addiction, and online courses. Since then, he has been working with this transformative method, helping hundreds of people online and in person in more than 10 countries to unravel thought patterns and achieve a more fulfilling and authentic life.
What is The Work?
The Work is an innovative approach to investigating and questioning the thoughts and beliefs that cause suffering in our lives. Created by Byron Katie, this simple yet profound method guides us through a process of self-inquiry that allows us to closely examine the stories we tell ourselves about the world, others, and ourselves.
What is it for?
The Work serves as a mirror to our minds, helping us see beyond the illusions we create and access the underlying truth. By questioning our thoughts, we can discover a new way of looking at situations, freeing ourselves from the prison of our own limited perceptions. This not only frees us from unnecessary suffering but also empowers us to make more conscious decisions and live with more authenticity and inner peace.
