The Work® of Byron Katie at The Findhorn Foundation with Kathy White - Certified Facilitator of The Work®

"Question your thinking, change the world" Byron Katie


The Work® of Byron Katie

The Work is a process that involves identifying and questioning the beliefs or thoughts that are causing stress in your life. By asking four questions and finding turnarounds you find a way of experiencing the opposite of what you believe. The Work is not a teaching; it is inquiry and an invitation to find for yourself what is true for you. It is a way to find joy, freedom and peace now, regardless of age, job, body, health, wealth, relationship or children. Anyone can do The Work. It is simple, radical and can be life-changing for those whose minds are open to it. There is more information about The Work of Byron Katie at www.thework.com, where you can watch videos of Byron Katie herself, download materials and discover more about the work.


Kathy White

Kathy is a Certified Facilitator of The Work. She first trained with Byron Katie in California in 2000 and has attended many events with Byron Katie since then. She regularly facilitates workshops for The Work of Byron Katie here at Findhorn, mentors candidates in the facilitation programme of The Work, facilitates teleclasses for The Institute of The Work, and you can find her profile in the certified facilitators section of www.thework.com.

Kathy works for the Findhorn Foundation in the department for Spiritual and Personal Development. She supervises, supports and coaches individuals and teams of staff members from the Findhorn Foundation. She is a fully qualified Art Psychotherapist registered with the Health Professions Council UK. She will often combine The Work with art when she holds sessions with groups or individuals.

She says of The Work:
"Before I had The Work I suffered a lot from the way I thought. I was often unkind to myself and to others in my thinking. I had tried many methods without much success, and then The Work came along. Finally there seemed a way out of the suffering. The Work has given me peace in many areas of my life; peace after much suffering and grief following the stillbirth of my first baby, peace in my relationship with my mother after years of struggling with wanting her to be different, and peace in the daily challenges of a busy community and family life at Findhorn as a working mother with a husband and two young children. I work with clients regularly who bring all kinds of different issues and beliefs to be worked on, including divorce, separation, difficulties with children, problems at work, ill health, insomnia, low self esteem, anxiety and panic attacks, bereavement and many other issues. I have not yet come across any situation where The Work is not of help to anyone who has an open mind and is willing to discover the truth beyond their story."
