“We all seek pleasure,” says Bob Greene. “How do you get that pleasure or happiness or joy? And when it’s not readily available in the real areas that you want—relationships, family, fulfilling career—food is a hundred times more attractive and it’s readily available. It’s there, and it is the drug of choice for most people.”

For the past two days, I attended a Byron Katie workshop with my family. Through Katie’s process anyone can trace unhappiness to its source and eliminate it there. This is what nirvana is all about. “Katie not only shows us that all the problems in the world originate in our thinking, she gives us the tool to open our minds and set ourselves free.”
You can find videos of Katie leading the work on YouTube, Google videos and on Katie’s website
