Before I worked on my past I used to believe my father abandoned me when my parents separated. I was 13 at the time and my father returned to his country of birth. He never contacted my brother and me, and never supported my mom financially. I developed victim consciousness as a result of my beliefs, i.e. I abandoned me (and him). Now I understand how his leaving us led to enough suffering for me to find the truth of the infinite love inside, through all the many modalities I used to get there. Without suffering to jettison us into a journey of self discovery, we would be like happy puppets - never realising our divine origin. He didn't abandoned us - he freed us.

Buffff...this is so precious ❤thank u
Awesome, I’ve tried reaching out to my father since I’ve done the work. He will not talk to me. I asked why and his answer was, “ you know .” I hope future generations will learn from the suffering. I would love to just hug him and say it’s okay. I do know. Thank you
Katie is the best of the best question askers... it takes a brilliant mind to ask the right questions...
Once it’s realized that all of our truths have a complete opposite that can also be true everything crumbles .

Thank you Katie ♥ I have so much work to do. X
I might like to see many more of these in-depth sessions, as they help me with my inquiry technique... 👍Katie is just a brilliant question asker... she does the work on the callers even more than they themselves... 😳
Katie was so good with the young girl in the beginning of the video!!! She was so clear and on it!!! Really helpful!! Thank you ❤
as I watch this video, I say a prayer, I pray for health, for wealth, and for love...
The work is inquiry, not conversation
Love the Work! So grateful
Here now. Thats who i am without the thought.
I experienced the same thing and I turned mine around and what I got was I treated him the same as I was treated.
1:25:40 she gets stuck in the turnarounds bc she's still in her head instead of meditating in the question, going into the situation and waiting for the truth that comes up... turnarounds are to balance out your perception, not to replace a mind construct with another...
Thank you so much! 😊😊😊
It’s called Timeline Therapy by Carl Jung
21:28 "...my father didn't abandon me..." possible reason: for whatever reason he never felt responsible in the first place... or he just escaped from a - to him - unbearable situation, meaning he saved himself as his major motive, as opposed to abandoning his biological child as his major motive...

Maybe he saved you
It’s her belief because it happened to her as a child and therefore her body and memory is there in her system, she can visit her past, accepting the past and come into the Now is the key

Questions don't make a teacher.
A few minutes in - this is total BS. I feel so sorry for the first woman whose story of abandonment is going unacknowledged and unvalidated. Merely telling students to no longer believe the thoughts that stem from trauma and abuse doesn’t address the reason they are experiencing those thoughts.

I had the same feeling for a long time, but something in me shiftet - i remembered that people aren't forced to do the work, it's a free choice. The work is there for us, when we are ready. Some days im ready, other days not. It is different for everyone what works :-)

It is still valid- even from a psychotherapeutic pov. At some point the girl states that, psychologically speaking, having been abandoned will affect her future relationships with men. In truth, that probably will be the case, for even if we fully accept and embrace our given situation, still the experience of loss may need time to be fully realised before trust can be found again. But who says that we need to relate in a particular way to others? Yes, we need to feel and mourn our losses, at the same time, any concept or judgement as to how either we, or how life is meant to be, will seperate us inside and be the only real cause of the suffering we experience.

But it doesn’t help to reinforce the story over and over. At some point you just become more miserable. As Buddha says there is suffering and there is a way out of suffering. She maybe needs counseling to tell her story and somebody is listening and guiding her. But Katie doesn’t let her down she is with her the entire time.
