A Journey Into Inquiry, Non-Duality, and The Truth of What Is
What if the thoughts you believe most strongly are not true?
This course is an invitation to explore suffering, stressful thoughts, our perceptions of reality, and the nature of experience with curiosity and an open mind.
Through The Work of Byron Katie - a simple yet profound practice of inquiry - you will learn to apply the Four Questions and Turnarounds to thoughts, beliefs, and situations that create stress or suffering. The Work can be applied to anything: relationships, conflict, work, difficult emotions, fear, self-judgment, and the everyday thoughts that shape our experience. It can also open into deeper questions about projection, consciousness, identity, non-duality, and the nature of the self.
Byron Katie has shared how The Work has been applied to some of the most painful experiences imaginable, including trauma, war, torture, rape, the death of a child, and chronic pain. Her work points to a profound possibility: that when we question the thoughts through which we experience suffering, we discover that life is and has always been kind and beautiful.
Nothing that is unreal can survive the scrutiny of Inquiry.
Through the course, you will explore how to:
Apply the Four Questions and Turnarounds to thoughts, beliefs, and situations that create stress or suffering.
Slow down and investigate your thoughts rather than automatically believing or reacting to them.
Explore how beliefs, expectations, and attachments shape your experience of yourself, others, and the world.
Recognise the difference between what is actually happening and the stories or projections you may be placing upon it.
Meet difficult emotions and experiences with presence, curiosity, and acceptance rather than resistance.
Discover your own insights and inner wisdom through stillness and inquiry.
Explore non-dual perspectives on mind, consciousness, thought, the present moment, and the nature of the self.
Experiment with seeing challenging experiences as opportunities for deeper presence, understanding, and freedom.
Develop a practice you can continue to use whenever stress, fear, conflict, or resistance arises.
What You Can Expect:
The course costs £19.99 and across this five-day journey, you will be guided through teachings, practical exercises, real-life examples of inquiry, and meditation.
You will learn how to bring the Four Questions and Turnarounds to your own experience, while also exploring deeper questions about awareness, thought, identity, time, projection, and the nature of reality. The course also includes practices for bringing inquiry into everyday moments. The final day brings the different themes together through a longer meditation and contemplation. You will be invited to explore the present moment, the nature of thought, the sense of being a separate self, and the possibility of meeting life without resistance.
This is not about forcing yourself to change your thoughts or experiences, or asking you to believe a particular philosophy. The invitation is simply to question, look closely, and discover for yourself what is true.
Come with curiosity, an open mind, and see what you discover.
