Happy to hear this 4 years later because we’ve seen that he never started a war or a “new clear” war or caused harm to people or the environment for that matter Thanks Katie🙏
Thinking about it in this context, as horrible as the last 4 years has been, I think the worst part was the constant fear and anxiety we all carried with us, like a rock that just kept getting heavier. I wonder how my experience would have changed if I had lived more in the moment than making my mind into a "movie" of all the past historical horrors. Most of what I feared hasn't happened and probably still won't. Those things I feared that did wind up coming true (storming of the capital, for example) weren't even as bad as they were in my head. A good reminder for me to live in the present rather than hypotheticals.
@@22424 the MSM, their owners, their investers, their hired employees/staff also have "narrated movies" playing in their heads, movies that they also "believe" & act as if they're real, like you, like me.
as prez, Trumps decisions, appointees, & people he listened to, enabled & who enabled him did get people killed (at the capitol for sure) & probably some policies escalated rather than curtailed effing up the environment, etc., but every president, knowingly or unknowingly, has had some effects, to greater or lesser degree, on people & the environment, yes?

This I believe: It is not necessary to be full of hatred and fear in order to effectively work for the things you believe are right or against the things you believe are wrong. The alternative to hatred is not passivity.
Robin Benjamin ABSOLUTELY! If you believe in the law of attraction at all you can see how we cause a lot of this stuff happening through our fearful thoughts.
The black woman mistakenly thought all women would vote for Hillary to have a woman president and that each candidate's policy and platform was of no matter.
@@cherylpa527she is brainwashing fools like you by telling you not to trust yourself at all in anything! Wow! Open a history book and learn from it. You are a tool. Shame on you. And no I am not stupid and I am not uneducated and I understand what she is doing very very well and you have bought into her bullshit and you are shooting your self in the foot because you think doing what she is manipulating you into thinking and believing shows that you are enlightened. The exact opposite is true. Snap out of it.
that little girl running with her back on fire is from Viet Nam, not Hiroshima atom bomb. Horrific all, but in days of #ErroneousNews, these facts MUST be kept clear.
For a news story the facts must be accurate. However, since this is actually about how our thoughts affect our emotions and reactions to our emotions, the misremembered fact isn't relevant to the process. What is important here is that she was using borrowed imagery to create an unnecessary fear for herself.
That is the first thought I had, also. I also thought that it proves she is making up facts based on something she really is not very knowledgable about.

Evil is in the mainstream media... as long as people keep trusting mainstream media there will; be new fears put into the minions every single day for the rest of their lives.
I’d like the women in this session to know how much impact they had on me this morning, 5 years later….....I find it incredible that, after a few tears, I’m able to think of Trump AND smile at the same time. Thank you, Katie…..... Thank you, good friends 🙏🏻
The media? The media? I guess the media is the ones who fuels the hundreds of thousands of white racist websites, forums, blogs, channels, pages, conservative sites dedicated to the degradation and intense hatred of all black people including infants. FOH
I don't know anything about these 'hundreds of thousands' of white racist publications.... The Corporate Media narrative is what you're buying into... Part of that lie is that Trump is a racist. Easy to say - hard to explain.... The biggest sites on the internet push racist-divisive-false narratives - Buzzfeed, Salon, HuffPo, Atlantic, MTV. etc.... We can only have true equality when all races choose to. There is no catch-up. It starts now or not at all.
This is the best Byron Katie video I've watched. That woman's personality would be hard to wake up from, because she's so amusing; she has the delivery of a comedienne. Watch the vid all the way through to the end. Poignant.
She is such a genius .... "even if you are dead you're not out .. cause you don't know you are out". this is one of my favourite BK sessions - the womans face completely changes and looks years younger when she tears the sheet up.
Your work is the source of a great wisdom, Katie. Thank you! So, the Work has worked for me for almost 2 years but there was a recent situation where it didn't work and I thought my brain has over-smarted it. However, I eventually realized that the source of my negative feeling was not one or two thoughts but near 40 different thoughts together caused a general negative feeling towards that situation. I would like to humbly suggest that the Work team would add a new worksheet where the audience will be able to list all the thoughts that relate to that situation continuously. It seems that the brain wants to stay on the same path and continuously create similar thoughts. To work with a network of thoughts rather than a single thought helped me a lot. Stay blessed~
I was amazed at what this lady was thinking about Donald Trump. I loved that Byron Katie took her through the process to see that it was her own thoughts that were scaring her and not Donald Trump. I could literally see the energy change in her at one point and was delighted to see how much lighter she looked after the process. I would give her a hug, in fact I am sending her a huge hug now!
Best…work…ever! Saw this years ago and happy it popped up and happy to watch it again. It would be so cool for the entire country to watch this at the same time!
I mean, how can we ignore the ACTIONS Trump is taking and say it's just how I imagine him to be. Doesn't that encourage apathy? Many people were complacent with Hitler, and bad things DID happen.
Lisa Ceazan Trump got elected because we were so focused in fear towards him. The only thing I see every day is fear of Trump. Half of this stuff is fake news and people are believing a lot of it. I am not a Trump fan at all but I think people who are against him are causing this hysteria. Whenever I seek the actual truth it is never as bad as it has been made out to be. Apathy is doing nothing when bad things are actually happening.
Lisa, you've been hypnotized by the media, and are living with hallucinations about who he is, what he means, and what he's going to do. Many people believe Trump is even remotely close to Hitler. He's not.
Bad things ARE actually happening, FemBot. Billionaires and banksters setting policy. We have a POTUS who has no empathy, is a bully, a narcissist, and a sociopath. We have a leader who lies continuously, hates the press, derides anyone who does not agree with him, foments fear against Muslims, defends Putin over Americans (like Obama), and is quite comfortable with other fascists. To see that world as a creation of your thoughts, and to blame the self for having "bad thoughts" is solopsistic and infantile. It seems that your eyes and ears are closed.
If you listen or watch more of Byron Katie's work, you will see that doing this process puts you in a much stronger position to take action against things that you object to, because it releases the part of it that feels personal and the circular thoughts that waste so much energy.
This is so perfect, thank you. A real spiritual teacher at her best. This is exactly what is needed these days and always. My respects to all these ladies for being the light for all of us.
When we focus on our own grass, when we water our own seeds and nurture our own growth we become to busy to judge or obsess over live of other people👍❤️
Es war so ergreifend und spannend zu sehen, wie der ganze Saal seinen Trump in sich gefunden hat. Live ist und bleibt Katie einfach unschlagbar. 💚 Danke Katie.
This work is absolutely amazing!!!!! Such an important WORK, which is not only freeing minds....but also bringing unity and peace. Thank you SO much Byron Katie!
Great video! And knowing that activism does not have to come out of fear. Its true source is love. Do I need violence and anger for change? Let's make sure Trump follow the laws we have agreed upon. If he does not, he'll bear the consequences, as would any other person, not only Trump.
Byron Katie Madame the peace and simple eloquence where in which you express wisdom in a way that appeals to peoples intelligence and not just their neurosis is admirable. I hope many people will see this and think about their thoughts and subsequent actions in a more cognitively aware manner and govern themselves unfettered with bondage of the body, mind, soul, and spirit in liberty in Gods Good Grace.
Thank you, Byron, I have been working so hard to teach everyone who listens to me and follows me that Consciousness CREATES. Since it does, people understanding that what we think might happen and catastrophizing about that, may well bring it to pass. Thank you for your deep, profound work.
I love it. Usually you see a teacher and he or she receives a question, answers it to the best of his abilities and that's it. No new questions. This lady, the questioner however, knew what she was coming for: answers. She was honest in her pain. And Byron Katy, she could provide. Awesome.
This is probably the best thing on RUclips or wherever right now. FEAR has thousands, if not millions, of people held in a tight grasp of disempowerment and illusions. I have not bought into any of those negatives, so grateful I haven't, which has left me with a profound sense of PEACE. If anything, one thing that came up that I agree with, pro or con, President Trump is definitely transformative!!!
I totally get where Katie and this ladys awakening comes from. However, I see these comments where people actually think this awakening is about Trump when its not. this is not about becoming pro Trump its about pro reality. Trump has not done the things we fear YET, so we cannot fear what we believe COULD happen.
You still have the wrong mentality. They aren’t going to happen until they do. IF they do. You can’t control what happens and worry about stuff that’s most likely not going to happen is only damaging yourself and taking away your time and brain-power that could be going elsewhere.
This was really powerful to watch. I've been struggling very badly with my feelings about him. I realize hating and fearing him just makes it worse. We can take action by being the things we wish to have in this world, peace, kindness, loving everyone, no matter their color or sexual preference and take our own actions to protect the planet. We can vote
You are right in hating him just like you should hate Hitler, Putin and the mollahs in Iran to name just a few. Trust you instincts. It is more than OK to hate trump and his philosophy. If you had read a history book, you wouldn't doubt your own instincts so much. Snap out of it.
Much funnier this time around - and so insightful. Watching this three years ago, I didn’t fully understand Katie’s teachings. I remember laughing, but feeling frustrated by her explanation, thinking she was just being Pollyanna. Trump was evil! Watching it again, he’s only gotten worse! And his supporters, - only more radical! Says who?.......I ask myself. ......Says my Ego. So grateful to discover this wisdom! So grateful for Byron Katie! One last thought: Enlightenment doesn’t require passivity. We can still stand for truth, decency, and equality, but our efforts will only succeed when coming from a position of compassion and empathy; not fear and hostility.
You're wrong, this video brain washed you to let go of fear. We all have fear. If cutting ties with family members because of their support of the pu$$y grabber isn't radical then you just wait Brett.
Perhaps trump supporters should do one on Hillary. This isn't to show that anyone is right or wrong, just to point out the illusionary stories our minds conjure up. As Katie states, if we believed the same thoughts other people believe we would do and act the same way they act. Katie is brilliant. I so needed to see this.
YUGE Difference between KKKlinton and Trump. Are you aware of her speech on her" IDOL" Margaret Sanger? Hillary is linked to what 20 some peoples "suicides"? Do you want to talk about the millions she stole from the people of Haiti? Trump has many flaws but he isnt on Hillary KKKlintons level. I haven't even mentioned the Emails or her best friend Podesta yet.
@@GoNZO-rs5oiI don't like Hillary either. I believe she would have done all of these things this woman is afraid Trump would do - but that's not the point of the work. We ALL have confirmation bias. We ALL see things based on our own mind prisons. Therefore, I believe it would be beneficial for me (and anyone else) to do this same exercise about Hillary (or any other political or powerful figure I might fear).
wow... such a big swoop of consciousnes... trump said, that he brings back the power to the people... we are the people, each one of us... let our deep traumas and the chains of slave perception not prevent us to take this responsibility...
2017: The lady with the paper: "I'm afraid Trump will create concentration camps and cause a nuclear war". 2024: me: "Would you like to revise your statement, madam?"
This is just wonderful, and of course goes in all directions, could be anyone at any given time if they're running with their thoughts and without self-inquiry to keep reality in mind.
"He will not start a nuclear war because those today in power already started it." Katie laughs and laughs upon hearing the comment and asks why no one else is laughing. I don't understand why she thought it was so funny.
I just wonder...how does this jibe with think political/social activism? If we substitute Hitler for Trump, and this is the 1930s, how effective would it be to go through this process and turn the negative statements about him into positive statements? I found myself calmed as a result of watching this video, but at the same time, my awareness of historical fact makes me think it's naive not be worried about history repeating itself . just wondering how to integrate staying centered and open-minded and in touch with higher wisdom with being a political activist for values I feel are important.
I would suggest watching other videos on The Work. In my opinion, Katie does not propose denying what you believe in a delusional manner but rather to investigate what you believe to see if it really is true for you. (Much of what we are believing is handed down to us and not what we ourselves actually believe.) If something remains true for you when you become still and question it, then that’s the way it is. You have to be really honest with yourself and take care not to gaslight yourself when doing this.
WOW! It's one thing to be accepting of the things you believe in politically but another altogether to do so with that which you do not believe in. Kudos to Katie for her integrity and all the people in the room.
I hate to say it, but all of these fears she named has or nearly has come true. I adore Byron. She helps me reduce my anxiety and think more clearly about how to handle abusive situations. But we should never use her tools to discredit or minimize our intuition, the facts, and observations of abuse. It should empower us to take a more effective stand for the millions of victims in our country, immigrants in our detainment centers, etc.
Katie in this video totally minimizes intuition and reduces her anxiety in the hopes for peace and calm. The Jews whom had peace and calm and didn't flee in the signs of danger were sent to concentration camps.
@@bluethundertd1183 no the work doesn't minimise intuition but allows it to come through. When you are in fear, you can't think clearly nor act adequately following your insight. Fear paralyses, and repeated fears creates social psychosis, and you end up doing the opposite of what you want, end up in camps like your example. Faith gives you courage and ability to face the enemy fearlessly and be guided, and not end up in camp. And to come to the politic of it, you can see what Biden has done, and most of her fears have been incarnated, which is often what happens, we project on others what we do and support ourselves, not because that's what you want but because that's what you are focusing on.
there was someone in Germany in 1933 who worried about what was to come and was wondering what could be done, if something could be done. The reaction she got was: pure imagination, what would you be without that thought .......... sorry I love The Work AND I think the world needs something else . Who would I be without that thought? I think poorer ...
Yeah, this work may work for some people and not for others. I’m in the category where it doesn’t work. It’s a known and proven fact that validating someone’s suffering helps them move past it. Validation (not asserting rightness, but offering understanding) is incredibly healing.
i agree with u that facts are facts, just like we should teach true history in schools, our personal histories should not be denied, or have people tell us to '' get over it",like how they disney sugar coat awful historical facts. bullshit. propoganda. but, if someones identity is based on their victimhood, & they clutch onto & claim it as a central/core of their identity, that identity is only one fraction of their totality as a living human being, yes? so it to me is not, "get over it,"but rather, what is going to help me to "get on with it'', cuz life is short, i don't want to need hate, or righteous indignation, or resentment to feel strong, better to be strong in our freedom from an ego that uses our confusion to stay in control, an ego created persona that is not in anyones real best interest, that is a house of cards built on sand.
I used to think that about Katie’s work but now I realize it is validating our suffering and feeling those emotions. Then it evolves in the “ turnaround “ - seeing how our fearful thoughts we project on others are in us.
Watching this Sep 2020 and the awareness of where I, even being more conscious then some appear, am seeing how fear has played with me this year. Me: schools will shut down again. The work: is it true? Me: I can't know and I'm missing out on life worrying about it.
@@jenniferlawrence9473 I don't think it's about right or wrong. I think it's about putting our thoughts and energy into things we cannot change. Fear and worry take us out of the moment. Even if you can do something about it, that doesn't mean it's something you need to put energy into 24/7. Put energy in while you do the thing, let it be when you do other things. I really think "the work" is about being present in the right now.
I had 1 bycicle and 1 skiing accident. Both times I could have died due to severe head injuries. Thank god, I was quite afraid of the imagination that I could get into an accident. So I wore a helmet both times and that Saved my life. This lady would have suggested what? That I say: Ok, I havent gotten into an accident yet. Why worry about it?
I always found humor in President Bush each time he said the Word "Nucular" I always wanted to help him in the tiniest way by a tiny tidbit of simple information given to him as a gift. "Nuclear" dear President. Well he is gone from the public eye but I can still give the gift to a wonderful person such as Byron.
I mean we all know it's quite possible dramatic things can happen with Donald Trump. Still is us being afraid of our imagination, but it definately has it's use. He's a dangerous wreck train and leading the most powerful nation.
it's a way of thinking about yourself and the world. According to Katie, the solution for Donald Trump is the same solution for all your fears, real or imagined.
I think there fore I am Katie is a Positive person she reminds me of Therapists meets regained consciousness for the whole I love the woman thank you K
love this. thank you for doing this. may we all be enlightened to understand this profound truth spiritually and politically. years ago i was at a workshop with marianne williamson, she said if i hate a candidate..i am adding to the hate that i "hate" . i am part of the hate. i light bulb went off..i got it.... my prayer is for all people to come to this work to unite us politically. we all really do "love" we need to find that common ground
"If it's gonna happen have a good life until then." Appalling advice. It's a bad caricature of "hakuna matata" You are not powerless. Your truth is not invalid, your feelings can empower you. This woman is teaching you how to anesthetize your soul.
It's exactly the opposite of what she's teaching. I recommend watching her other videos too. You can't be efficient when you are suffering and caught in illusions.
Happy to hear this 4 years later because we’ve seen that he never started a war or a “new clear” war or caused harm to people or the environment for that matter Thanks Katie🙏

Brave woman, facing her fears, doing her work so publicly and healing so many by doing so. Bravo.
Agree.
It’s amazing how fear is caused by ignorance lmao
Hilarious
🤣🤣🤣
Luv that moment when she tore the paper up. Beautiful and absolutely wonderful. I really needed this. Thanks
Thank you, Katie for posting this relevant subject on these sensitive and relevant times.

She didn't give a red pill, just showing we must accept what is true in this moment. Things are constantly changing

Very true. In China people know TV is a tool of propaganda. Not do in US. We are more asleep without questioning media
As it turned out with trump it's rather the other way around especially with a Look at Ukraine and russia etc etc.. 😁
Thank you to the brave, intelligent, sensitive woman and Katie for this breath of fresh air on a subject that has been troubling me, too.
😂
Found the whole enquiry and the audience participation incredibly helpful. Thank you so much...

her Awakening!

Rigged elections since 2000
Thank you, Byron, I have been working so hard to teach everyone who listens to me and follows me that Consciousness CREATES. Since it does, people understanding that what we think might happen and catastrophizing about that, may well bring it to pass. Thank you for your deep, profound work.
I love Byron Katie’s work! So powerful and life changing. Thank you!
Now America is great again indeed! Thanks Byron :)
La???,
I love it. Usually you see a teacher and he or she receives a question, answers it to the best of his abilities and that's it. No new questions. This lady, the questioner however, knew what she was coming for: answers. She was honest in her pain. And Byron Katy, she could provide. Awesome.
love this. exactly.....
Bryon Katie 🌺 my innerstanding is... WE have the power to collectively create positive thoughts which will equal an positive outcome.
Thank you Byron. Your perspective is always beautifully simple and much needed in our world. xxx
This is such a helpful talk for democrats, republicans, and for people in every country on Earth as mine, Argentina. It´s amazing!!
This is probably the best thing on RUclips or wherever right now. FEAR has thousands, if not millions, of people held in a tight grasp of disempowerment and illusions. I have not bought into any of those negatives, so grateful I haven't, which has left me with a profound sense of PEACE. If anything, one thing that came up that I agree with, pro or con, President Trump is definitely transformative!!!
trump is the G
This was fabulous! Thank you for all the joy!!
I totally get where Katie and this ladys awakening comes from. However, I see these comments where people actually think this awakening is about Trump when its not. this is not about becoming pro Trump its about pro reality. Trump has not done the things we fear YET, so we cannot fear what we believe COULD happen.
You're not paying attention to what he's been doing.
What has he does thats so terrible?
Yeah, like reducing regulations. Getting rid of criminal alien invaders.
You still have the wrong mentality.
They aren’t going to happen until they do. IF they do. You can’t control what happens and worry about stuff that’s most likely not going to happen is only damaging yourself and taking away your time and brain-power that could be going elsewhere.
2 years later and he literally built concentration camps and has started a war with Iran
This was really powerful to watch. I've been struggling very badly with my feelings about him. I realize hating and fearing him just makes it worse. We can take action by being the things we wish to have in this world, peace, kindness, loving everyone, no matter their color or sexual preference and take our own actions to protect the planet. We can vote
You are right in hating him just like you should hate Hitler, Putin and the mollahs in Iran to name just a few. Trust you instincts. It is more than OK to hate trump and his philosophy. If you had read a history book, you wouldn't doubt your own instincts so much. Snap out of it.
I love to see how much lighter people look after they truly do the work ... thank you forever and always for "the work"...
I was thinking the same thing. You see the change all over her.
Much funnier this time around - and so insightful. Watching this three years ago, I didn’t fully understand Katie’s teachings. I remember laughing, but feeling frustrated by her explanation, thinking she was just being Pollyanna. Trump was evil!
Watching it again, he’s only gotten worse! And his supporters, - only more radical!
Says who?.......I ask myself.
......Says my Ego.
So grateful to discover this wisdom! So grateful for Byron Katie!
One last thought:
Enlightenment doesn’t require passivity. We can still stand for truth, decency, and equality, but our efforts will only succeed when coming from a position of compassion and empathy; not fear and hostility.
Brett this is amazing and exactly how I feel. I needed to hear this again.
You're wrong, this video brain washed you to let go of fear. We all have fear. If cutting ties with family members because of their support of the pu$$y grabber isn't radical then you just wait Brett.
@@dimitri933 Well now under Biden, all she feared is happening under Biden, ironic isn't it?
I love every minute! I’ve watched this a few times and I didn’t even dislike Trump, but this is still one of the most powerful!!
I am so glad I found you girl! Thank you so very much from the bottom of my heart ❤️
Thank you for this. What I thought was impossible-My sanity is restored. This vulnerable woman READ MY MIND x 10. Love her.
28:00 Miraculous moment when she truly gets it! Awesome to see the work in action!
republican white girl here
refreshing. as always, katie’s work is life changing.
White girls are awesome, and if Republican, even better
who would i be without this thought? - thank you Byron Katie
God Bless Trump, Bannon, and the ghost of Andrew Breitbart.
Perhaps trump supporters should do one on Hillary. This isn't to show that anyone is right or wrong, just to point out the illusionary stories our minds conjure up. As Katie states, if we believed the same thoughts other people believe we would do and act the same way they act. Katie is brilliant. I so needed to see this.
"As soon I think someone else needs to do one on someone....that means I need to do one" Byron Katie
YUGE Difference between KKKlinton and Trump. Are you aware of her speech on her" IDOL" Margaret Sanger? Hillary is linked to what 20 some peoples "suicides"? Do you want to talk about the millions she stole from the people of Haiti? Trump has many flaws but he isnt on Hillary KKKlintons level. I haven't even mentioned the Emails or her best friend Podesta yet.
@@GoNZO-rs5oiI don't like Hillary either. I believe she would have done all of these things this woman is afraid Trump would do - but that's not the point of the work. We ALL have confirmation bias. We ALL see things based on our own mind prisons. Therefore, I believe it would be beneficial for me (and anyone else) to do this same exercise about Hillary (or any other political or powerful figure I might fear).
@@PhoenixAurelius-138 Hillary would of done a lot better
FANTASTIC!!! Thank you!
Very powerful! The work is strong, but the messenger- like MLK, is what really ignites! Thank you Katie!
wow... such a big swoop of consciousnes... trump said, that he brings back the power to the people... we are the people, each one of us... let our deep traumas and the chains of slave perception not prevent us to take this responsibility...
2017: The lady with the paper: "I'm afraid Trump will create concentration camps and cause a nuclear war".
2024: me: "Would you like to revise your statement, madam?"
I have been waiting for this!! Watching it now, thank you so very much!!!!
I need to see this. It could be my worksheet.
This is just wonderful, and of course goes in all directions, could be anyone at any given time if they're running with their thoughts and without self-inquiry to keep reality in mind.
"He will not start a nuclear war because those today in power already started it." Katie laughs and laughs upon hearing the comment and asks why no one else is laughing. I don't understand why she thought it was so funny.
I just wonder...how does this jibe with think political/social activism? If we substitute Hitler for Trump, and this is the 1930s, how effective would it be to go through this process and turn the negative statements about him into positive statements? I found myself calmed as a result of watching this video, but at the same time, my awareness of historical fact makes me think it's naive not be worried about history repeating itself . just wondering how to integrate staying centered and open-minded and in touch with higher wisdom with being a political activist for values I feel are important.
I would suggest watching other videos on The Work. In my opinion, Katie does not propose denying what you believe in a delusional manner but rather to investigate what you believe to see if it really is true for you. (Much of what we are believing is handed down to us and not what we ourselves actually believe.) If something remains true for you when you become still and question it, then that’s the way it is. You have to be really honest with yourself and take care not to gaslight yourself when doing this.
I don't like Byron Katie... I love, love, love Byron Katie! Great upload at a relevant time O:-) xx
Watching this again in 2024 when her fears look like a Sunday school picnic. They're promising MUCH worse this November.
@jenna2431 Is it true?
WOW! It's one thing to be accepting of the things you believe in politically but another altogether to do so with that which you do not believe in. Kudos to Katie for her integrity and all the people in the room.
I hate to say it, but all of these fears she named has or nearly has come true. I adore Byron. She helps me reduce my anxiety and think more clearly about how to handle abusive situations. But we should never use her tools to discredit or minimize our intuition, the facts, and observations of abuse. It should empower us to take a more effective stand for the millions of victims in our country, immigrants in our detainment centers, etc.
Katie in this video totally minimizes intuition and reduces her anxiety in the hopes for peace and calm. The Jews whom had peace and calm and didn't flee in the signs of danger were sent to concentration camps.
@@bluethundertd1183 no the work doesn't minimise intuition but allows it to come through. When you are in fear, you can't think clearly nor act adequately following your insight. Fear paralyses, and repeated fears creates social psychosis, and you end up doing the opposite of what you want, end up in camps like your example. Faith gives you courage and ability to face the enemy fearlessly and be guided, and not end up in camp. And to come to the politic of it, you can see what Biden has done, and most of her fears have been incarnated, which is often what happens, we project on others what we do and support ourselves, not because that's what you want but because that's what you are focusing on.
I so appreciate this.
Mindblowingly profound!!!
THIS HELPED ME SO MUCH!!! Thank you.
This is so dangerous, she is basically put on the spot to believe what she is being told.
I love katie's laughter.... It gets better :)
Masterful and truly peace making
there was someone in Germany in 1933 who worried about what was to come and was wondering what could be done, if something could be done. The reaction she got was: pure imagination, what would you be without that thought .......... sorry I love The Work AND I think the world needs something else . Who would I be without that thought? I think poorer ...
Yeah, this work may work for some people and not for others. I’m in the category where it doesn’t work. It’s a known and proven fact that validating someone’s suffering helps them move past it. Validation (not asserting rightness, but offering understanding) is incredibly healing.
i agree with u that facts are facts, just like we should teach true history in schools, our personal histories should not be denied, or have people tell us to '' get over it",like how they disney sugar coat awful historical facts. bullshit. propoganda.
but, if someones identity is based on their victimhood, & they clutch onto & claim it as a central/core of their identity, that identity is only one fraction of their totality as a living human being, yes?
so it to me is not, "get over it,"but rather, what is going to help me to "get on with it'', cuz life is short, i don't want to need hate, or righteous indignation, or resentment to feel strong, better to be strong in our freedom from an ego that uses our confusion to stay in control, an ego created persona that is not in anyones real best interest, that is a house of cards built on sand.
But she IS validating her suffering. Did you watch the whole video?
I used to think that about Katie’s work but now I realize it is validating our suffering and feeling those emotions. Then it evolves in the “ turnaround “ - seeing how our fearful thoughts we project on others are in us.
I wish everybody did the work. Thank you Byron Katie.
Trump make me know this woman. Thank Trump. My God she is genius.
Watching this Sep 2020 and the awareness of where I, even being more conscious then some appear, am seeing how fear has played with me this year.
Me: schools will shut down again.
The work: is it true?
Me: I can't know and I'm missing out on life worrying about it.
Watching this in 2021, she was right about some of the things she was afraid of.
@@jenniferlawrence9473 I don't think it's about right or wrong. I think it's about putting our thoughts and energy into things we cannot change. Fear and worry take us out of the moment. Even if you can do something about it, that doesn't mean it's something you need to put energy into 24/7. Put energy in while you do the thing, let it be when you do other things. I really think "the work" is about being present in the right now.
@@SoulShineLiveMichele well said,🌞🧱🥀😵
🪒🧱🤯
🌞🌿🌷🌻☘️😎
I had 1 bycicle and 1 skiing accident. Both times I could have died due to severe head injuries. Thank god, I was quite afraid of the imagination that I could get into an accident. So I wore a helmet both times and that Saved my life.
This lady would have suggested what? That I say: Ok, I havent gotten into an accident yet. Why worry about it?
Exactly
Hmmm. What if President Trump did a Worksheet?
my hand is not small, it is average
People want to know who they are, all can do it. Buddha means "Awakened Being"

Doesn't need to, he's happy and getting his needs met. Total success story.

Dark humor is relevant here.
So is pointing out bullying anywhere.

BRILLIANT!!!!! I LOVE Byron Katie soooooo much! She is the BEST
This woman is so beautiful, she outshines Katie. Haha. Her laugh.
I always found humor in President Bush each time he said the Word "Nucular" I always wanted to help him in the tiniest way by a tiny tidbit of simple information given to him as a gift. "Nuclear" dear President. Well he is gone from the public eye but I can still give the gift to a wonderful person such as Byron.
Shes explaining her programing!!
This lady is amazing!!!!
I think I need to watch this another 10 times.
Much as I like BK's work and "the work," this is horribly naive. It's what got us here. The dangers are real.
We need this kind of episode, Katie..
Trump should step down because I'm a coward who is afraid of my own imagination. Cool story.
100% correct analysis. This is how most people operate: totally programmed. 1984 arrived a long time ago.
She sought help, then got in front of a crowd and shared her fears. To me it doesn't sound cowardly at all.
I mean we all know it's quite possible dramatic things can happen with Donald Trump.
Still is us being afraid of our imagination, but it definately has it's use. He's a dangerous wreck train and leading the most powerful nation.
it's a way of thinking about yourself and the world. According to Katie, the solution for Donald Trump is the same solution for all your fears, real or imagined.
LOL great analysis!
I love Trump and I love Byron Katie, I think they're both terrific.
Wow. This is amazing stuff. I feel wonderful. Thank you.
I think there fore I am
Katie is a Positive person she reminds me of Therapists meets regained consciousness for the whole
I love the woman thank you K
People would rather fight and keep their illusions and be right than give them up and be happy.
Wasn't she right though
Can't let it go.
Victimized by self righteousness.
love this. thank you for doing this. may we all be enlightened to understand this profound truth spiritually and politically. years ago i was at a workshop with marianne williamson, she said if i hate a candidate..i am adding to the hate that i "hate" . i am part of the hate. i light bulb went off..i got it.... my prayer is for all people to come to this work to unite us politically. we all really do "love" we need to find that common ground
this is BRILLIANT!!
"If it's gonna happen have a good life until then."
Appalling advice. It's a bad caricature of "hakuna matata"
You are not powerless. Your truth is not invalid, your feelings can empower you. This woman is teaching you how to anesthetize your soul.
It's exactly the opposite of what she's teaching. I recommend watching her other videos too. You can't be efficient when you are suffering and caught in illusions.
Estou impressionada com o trabalho dessa mulher!! Que incrivel o modo como ela nos mostra como criamos a nossa realidade!!!
I just love you Katie! And yes it's true!
