Sometimes when your mind tells you not to do something, it might be wise to listen. If you want to do heroin, and your mind says, "You'll get in trouble..." I HIGHLY recommend listening to your mind in that case.
@theboombody Of course. That's a constructive thought, a useful thought, a loving thought even. What The Work focuses on are the millions of thoughts that vex us everyday - the destructive, the useless and the unloving thoughts, thoughts that form the vast majority of our wakeful and thinking hours and which are relentlessly repetitive in nature. The Work gives you a chance to question those thoughts.
I would like to see videos of katie more on you tube. It works. Seeing it, hearing her it goes deeper in my experience. She is able to live and express her awareness so it may be felt if you are open to it. Love u kt.
Her reference to brushing her teeth is related to the period in time she was severely depressed and couldn't even bring herself to brush her teeth. The thought of it was too much. She knows that some of our thoughts cause us suffering because we are all the same in that respect. We stand in our own way through how we think, through the perspective we hold. It's not about following her directions at all, she's just showing a tool that one can use to question one's stressful thoughts.
I have never had a problem brushing my teeth. Why does this lady insist that I am suffering? Why does she speak as if she knows what is going on in everybody's life? Looking at this video is such a turn off, I wouldn't dream of following her directions.
Why do you presume that she is talking to you personally? Isn't it clear that she's talking to people generally? And whoever wrote on the piece of paper that she's holding in her hand?
It helps to consider the context in light of your criticism.
I love her hands...
