Byron Katie's practice of self-inquiry, held by the cards.
You'll bring one painful belief you're carrying right now. Four questions will walk you through it. At each step, a card draws from the deck — not to tell you what to think, but to offer a reflection, a different angle of light.
There is no right way to do this. The only requirement is honesty.
Write it plainly. Not a story about it — just the thought itself. One sentence is enough.
A turnaround is the opposite of your belief, or the same statement with yourself as the subject. Write three versions below, then draw a card for each one.
"He doesn't care about me" becomes "I don't care about me" / "He does care about me" / "I don't care about him."
You sat with the belief that has been running quietly in the background, and you asked it the questions it has never been asked before. That is not small. That is the whole practice.
You don't need to have arrived anywhere. The inquiry itself is the medicine.
"I discovered that when I believed my thoughts, I suffered,
but that when I didn't believe them, I didn't suffer."
— Byron Katie
