In this First Friday Work of Byron Katie session, Grace Bell guides participants through the powerful process of questioning their stressful thoughts. Together, they explore how shifting perspective can dissolve suffering and open the way to clarity and peace.

Listeners will hear real-life examples of thoughts under inquiry—ranging from comparing ourselves to others, to managing inner criticism, to wishing others would behave differently. This episode is an invitation to discover that freedom is available in any situation, once our unquestioned stories are brought into the light.
