At last someone who has made the connection between Byron Katie's four questions and the principle of memory reconsolidation. Many health professionals refuse to look at some of the methods offered by the self-help community because these often lack a scientific basis or are quite simplistic. But this is, I think, a shame because there are a lot of exceptions to this rule and Byron Katie's method is one of them. This method is such an obvious facilitator of mismatch experiences and I think that combining her method with the science of memory reconsolidation and distribute this as a 'therapeutic pamphlet' would make for a very strong message to people who don't know or belief that change is really achievable.
