Please join us for a video presentation of internationally recognized teacher Byron Katie’s Jan, 2011 Austin Workshop.  Participants will have an opportunity to practice the elucidating questions known as ‘The Work.’ , as well as discuss and practice the method designed to end endless mental suffering. ‘The Work’  allows us to trace unhappiness to its source (our thoughts), and eliminate it there. Katie (as everyone calls her) shows us that all the problems in the world originate in our thinking.
