#119: I Can’t Lose My Granddaughter • The Work of Byron Katie®

My client and her daughter are terrified as her two-year-old granddaughter, having swallowed a quarter, is choking on it. As her granddaughter’s eyes roll back in her head, she finally goes limp, and my client thinks, “We’re Losing Her!”   See her terrifying thoughts below: I am terrified of what is happening to her because “if we lose her, the pain will be unbearable. I want her to keep living and be available for this love I feel for her. She should not leave us, should not devastate us, should stop choking, and should start breathing. To be happy, I need her to live. She is going to die. She won’t be available to experience my love. She’s not going to live a full life as she should. I don’t ever want her to die before I do.   Don't miss Byron Katie every M-T-W, 9-10 am Pacific Time.

Om Podcasten

Welcome to The Work of Byron Katie® official podcast. Invite your mind to stillness, pay attention as you relate what you hear to your own life, and experience the thrill of waking up to reality—not as some exalted state of mind, but as the elementary, doable, down-to-earth experience of understanding the cause of all suffering and how to end it. Hello. This is Byron Katie, and I welcome you to the “At Home with Byron Katie” podcast. Each week you’ll find me here with a different guest. I love the life experience each one brings to the table, and I hope you will too. Is there a problem in your world? Is there someone in your life, past or present, who resembles my guest or the person my guest is upset with? We exercise our bodies, but what about our minds? Think of this podcast as mental hygiene. I marvel at each guest’s courage, and I invite you to relax, get comfortable, and open your mind to inquiry. Let’s do The Work. For more information, visit thework.com.
