Spilling the Script: An Intense Guide to Self-Knowing

Spilling the Script is basically about spilling the beans on that part of ourselves whose main plot is to do whatever it takes to keep us separate. By uncovering the way our hidden defenses work, we begin to see how our strategies for staying safe are now the very things that block us from our true loving nature. Once you uncover and clear such inner obstacles, you find your true you. The Pathwork program for spiritual self-development is based on the wise and practical teachings that were given by a spirit entity known as the Guide. The resulting 250 lectures, together with thousands of Q&As, create a vast body of material that is frankly hard to get one's arms around. In Spilling the Script, Jill Loree has boiled down the essence of these teachings into a clear and concise overview. For those familiar with the Pathwork lectures, this book will help you frame the work of healing, providing perspective in understanding of the greater arc of the path and how everything fits together. For people unfamiliar with Pathwork, this book can be a valuable resource for finding a doorway in, or gaining insights that can help deepen one's work on any chosen path of spiritual self-development. Throughout the book, Jill Loree has woven in many expressions and quotes from the spiritual recovery program Alcoholics Anonymous, along with insights from Kabbalah, which Jill Loree also studied for four years as part of her own personal work of self-knowing. "The truth is that love is the key to all life and the only safety there is. That is the great truth...Before this truth can be discovered, you need to discover where, within the depths and recesses of your being - not at first conscious to you - you violate this law of truth and love. And every single human being does." - Pathwork Guide Q&A #161

About the Author :
A neatnik with a ready sense of humor, Jill Loree's first job as a root-beer-stand carhop in Northern Wisconsin was an early sign that things could only get better. She would go on to throw pizzas and bartend while in college, before discovering that the sweet spot of her 30-year sales-and-marketing career would be in business-to-business advertising. A true Gemini with a degree in Chemistry and a flair for writing, she enjoys the challenge of thinking creatively about scientific topics. Her brain fires on both the left and right sides. That said, her real passion in life has been her spiritual path. Raised in the Lutheran faith, she became a more deeply spiritual person in the rooms of AA, a spiritual recovery program, starting in 1989. In 1997, she was introduced to the wisdom of the Pathwork, which she describes as "having walked through the doorway of a fourth step and found the whole library." She completed four years of Pathwork Helpership training in 2007 followed by four years of apprenticing and discernment before stepping into her full Helpership in 2011. She has been a teacher in the Transformation Program offered at Sevenoaks Retreat Center in Madison, Virginia, operated by Mid-Atlantic Pathwork, where she also led marketing activities for over two years and served on the Board of Trustees. In 2012, Jill completed four years of Kabbalah training in a course called the Soul's Journey, achieving certification for hands-on healing using the energies embodied in the tree of life. Not bad for a former pom-pom squad captain who once played Dolly in Hello Dolly! She is now the proud mom to two adult children, Charlie and Jackson, who were born and raised in Atlanta. Having grown weary of borrowing other people's last names, Jill now happily uses her middle name as her last-it's pronounced la-REE. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, writing, yoga and hiking, especially in the mountains. As she turns the corner onto the back nine in life, she has consciously decoupled from the corporate world and is now dedicating her life to writing and spiritual teaching.
