Haha. I am kind of the opposite. I tried to get into the Power of Now, and couldn't really "get" it until after I'd read Katie. So, I agree that each person has to find what works for them. A lot of these teachers are saying the same message, just in different ways. If it's frustrating you to try to do The Work, then go to something else.

Pema Chodron is amazing. Just had to add that in.
