In "Loving What Is," bestselling author Byron Katie introduced
thousands of people to her simple and profound method of finding
happiness through questioning the mind. Now, "I Need Your
Love"--"Is That True?" examines a universal, age-old source of
anxiety: our relationships with others. In this groundbreaking
book, Katie helps you question everything you have been taught to
do to gain love and approval. In doing this, you discover how to
find genuine love and connection.
The usual advice offered in self-help books and reinforced by our
culture advocates a stressful, all-consuming quest for love and
approval. We are advised to learn self-marketing and manipulative
skills--how to attract, impress, seduce, and often pretend to be
something we aren't. This approach doesn't work. It leaves millions
of walking wounded--those who, having failed to find love or
appreciation, blame themselves and conclude that they are unworthy
of love.
"I Need Your Love"--"Is That True?" helps you illuminate every area
in your life where you seem to lack what you long for most--the
love of your spouse, the respect of your child, a lover's
tenderness, or the esteem of your boss. Through its penetrating
inquiry, you will quickly discover the falseness of the accepted
ways of seeking love and approval, and also of the mythology that
equates love with need. Using the method in this book, you will
inquire into painful beliefs that you've based your whole life
on--and be delighted to see them evaporate. Katie shows you how
unraveling the knots in the search for love, approval, and
appreciation brings real love and puts you in charge of your own
happiness.
"Everyone agrees that love is wonderful, exceptwhen it's
terrible. People spend their whole lives tantalized by
love--seeking it, trying to hold on to it, or trying to get over
it. Not far behind love, as major preoccupations, come approval and
appreciation. From childhood on, most people spend much of their
energy in a relentless pursuit of these things, trying out
different methods to be noticed, to please, to impress, and to win
other people's love, thinking that's just the way life is. This
effort can become so constant and unquestioned that we barely
notice it anymore.
This book takes a close look at what works and what doesn't in the
quest for love and approval. It will help you find a way to be
happier in love and more effective in all your relationships. What
you learn here will bring fulfillment to all kinds of
relationships, including romantic love, dating, marriage, work, and
friendship." --Byron Katie
