Author-Educator Carol L. Skolnick Presents 'The Work of Byron Katie' on Three Tuesday Nights this May in Santa Cruz, CA

Author and Educator Carol L. Skolnick, a Certified Facilitator of The Work trained by world-renowned personal growth expert Byron Katie, will lead three workshops on this radically effective self-inquiry process, on Tuesday nights this May at Gateways Books & Gifts in Santa Cruz, CA. The series begins on May 13 at 7:00 pm.

Santa Cruz, CA (PRWEB) April 9, 2008 -- "I need more money." "My body is too fat." "My partner doesn't listen." Thoughts like these may run through our minds daily, impeding intimacy, disturbing our peace and creating fear, anger, resentment, stress or depression. In three powerful evening workshops in May, Carol L. Skolnick, M.A., will present The Work of Byron Katie, a simple way to address and move through stressful thoughts and limiting beliefs.

Praised by A New Earth author Eckhart Tolle as "a razor-sharp sword that cuts through the illusion," The Work, a transformative process of inquiry, is a way to identify and question thoughts that cause suffering. This self-inquiry process provides keen insights into the mind and its mechanisms through a series of simple, straightforward questions. Doing The Work can result in greater personal and professional clarity, better communication in relationships, decreased dependence on substances and behaviors and an abiding sense of peace and joy. The Work is used effectively by mental health practioners and life coaches with their clients, as well as by educators, clergy, individuals, couples, and in corporate settings around the world.

A longtime facilitator and staff member of Byron Katie's School for The Work, Carol L. Skolnick, M.A., was trained by Katie in 2001 and has facilitated inquiry across the U.S. and in Latin America since 2002. Her articles about The Work have appeared in magazines, newspapers and natural health publications around the world. Carol was one of the first facilitators to receive the credential of Certified Facilitator from the Institute for The Work in 2007.

I have seen first-hand her powerful facilitating ability and the powerful results." --Stephanie McWilliams,Host of HGTV's "Fun Shui"

"Carol Skolnick shows a penetrating insight into the simple, but all-too-often elusive matter of awakening into clarity." --Dr. Kriben Pillay, Editor, The Noumenon Journal, South Africa
