Book Description

Although it has been compared to other spiritual and psychological systems — from Socrates' questioning, to the teachings of the Buddha and Zen Masters, to the 12-step programThe Work is not based on any previous method or tradition. Neither philosophy or religion, it presents a practical and experiential way to undo the painful thoughts and beliefs that preoccupy our lives.

The four questions to ask yourself about any belief you hold are:
  1. Is it true?
  2. Can you absolutely know that it's true?
  3. How do you react when you believe that thought?
  4. Who would you be without the thought?
