Yes, the Work works!  That's been my experience.  I have found it to have enormous power to get to one's shadow which usually reveals itself through projection and judgements about others.  As Katie says, the Work is checkmate.  It can take one all the way to enlightenment - after that is what I am without my story. 

This book introduces a simple POWERFUL way of clearing your mind so that your experience freedom. What I like about it is that it doesn't present any new belief system or dogma, just four questions and a turnaround - an invitation to investigate your stressful thoughts. I highly recommend this book to anybody who is tired of feeling stressed out, annoyed with others, and wants to experience peace, joy, and unconditional love for all that life has to offer - forever more. The Work really works and it will change your life like nothing else. Check at www.thework.com and find out all about the book, how to do The Work and how you can hook up with others around the world who use it in their daily lives.

What can I say about this book?  Just read it.  Then, live it.  You will be very glad you did.

Eckhart Tolle calls Loving What Is the “key” to cutting through the world of illusion, which is the world of uninvestigated belief. Everything you always wanted from atma vichara, meditation, satsang can be achieved by the simple act of questioning stressful thoughts. In this book, Katie gives you everything you need to begin practicing The Work, an easy to learn process of self inquiry which opens the mind and heart.
