"My Son Is Weird"-Is It True?

A young mother is deeply pained by what she considers her son's weirdness. She wants him to be "normal," more like the other kids. With Katie's gentle help, this woman looks at her unquestioned thoughts for the first time, watches them unravel, and finds her prescription for happiness in turnarounds such as "I should stop being weird to my son in front of those other children" and "I should know how to fit in." Through tears and laughter, she sees that she might just be the mother of a really happy kid.

Byron Katie, founder of The Work, has one job: to teach people how to end their own suffering. As she guides people through the powerful process of inquiry she calls The Work, they find that their stressful beliefs—about life, other people, or themselves—radically shift and their lives are changed forever. Based on Byron Katie's direct experience of how suffering is created and ended, The Work is an astonishingly simple process, accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds, and requires nothing more than a pen, paper, and an open mind. Through this process, anyone can learn to trace unhappiness to its source and deal with it there. Katie (as everyone calls her) not only shows us that all the problems in the world originate in our thinking: she gives us the tool to open our minds and set ourselves free.
