urdjieff left a body of ideas and practical methods suited for people living in the modern world. His ideas shed an entirely new light on many of the most fundamental issues we experience as human beings. The Gurdjieff Work, simply called The Work, may be carried into all aspects of our ordinary lives. Family, community, work, study, recreation – all become a part of the living laboratories that are our lives.

Because the essential truths of the teaching are of a higher order than the realm of our ordinary consciousness, Gurdjieff developed a system that includes exercises of mind and body. These assist in the struggle with habitual resistances, leading to sustained and greater awareness.

The Work explores the natural connection between psychology, science, and spiritual development, always beginning with where one finds oneself now, in the moment.
