Guide to the interview with Spirit Portal, Samaya:
4.30 The healing journey doesn't always bring physical healing but always brings growth.
5.12 Katherine answers the question: How did you get ill? And talks of 14 years bedbound without the normal distractions of life. “I'm still disappointed at times that I'm not healthier than I am, but I have come a long way.”
9.50 They tell you to rest, but living with severe illness and inadequate support is hard work…. When you feel sick you don't feel restful.
11.15 Having care. The experience of being reliant on caregivers. "I never knew who would walk through the door".
12.30 Samaya: " if I could have one book on a deserted island, it would be this one [Be Loved Beloved]."
12.40 There you are bed-ridden, how did the conversation with God start?
15.15 In 1993, Katherine collapsed on the way to work. Someone dear to her died. Followed by a spiritual turning point in 1993, prompted by a prayer of surrender: Dear God, I don't know how to do this, please help me. Amen

25.30 Katherine and Samaya talk about the pressure we can feel for life to look perfect.
29.10 Katherine talks about how we can find it hard to love ourselves when ill. And how we can practise knowing that our loveability does not depend on what we do. We are love itself because we are part of God.

"One thing that struck me was the stripping of ego in the work. Most of us have a comfy ego façade, but weakness and disease tore Katherine’s away. The poems in Be Loved Beloved come from the heart."
