Mindy Garratt
When I consider my life before The Work, I look back at a girl, a woman who was lost in a haze of anxiety and fear. I was stuck in the past, fearful of the future. Various addictions gripped me, and I burnt so many bridges, hurt people I loved, hated myself, and couldn’t see any way out of my circumstances. A life-changing event happened. It crushed me, shocked me, and broke me. Utter darkness enveloped me.
That was not the end of my story. A friend told me about Byron Katie; I found a facilitator for The Work. I did a worksheet with her, and in 90 minutes, my world rapidly changed. I had new hope and optimism, and my self-esteem was returning. Since then, The Work’s four questions and turnarounds have become my go-to for any stressful situation. It’s a path I’ve been on for several years.
My heart is to take you on this beautiful, freeing journey. Suffering is now a choice; I know from experience that you don’t have to make that choice, if you are willing to open your heart.
I understand what it is like to lose a sibling to cancer. I understand addiction, grief, and pain. So many of us suffer alone, chewing on our toxic thoughts like they are our only option.
The Work has changed me profoundly, and I would love to see others experience this for themselves.
With Love.
