Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness

There are so many therapeutic methods and healing modalities available these days.   One of them is IFS, or parts work. I have the honor of  speaking with the creator of IFS, Dr. Rick Schwartz. He's the creator of Internal Family Systems, IFS, a highly effective evidence-based therapeutic model. It provides a non-pathologizing, optimistic, and empowering perspective and a practical and effective set of techniques for working with individuals, couples, families, and more recently, corporations and classrooms. In this episode we talked about:  The myth of the mono mind The goal and the 4 main benefits of IFS It’s origin, growth and milestones Then Dr. Schwartz describes the parts and their roles  We do a live demo We all have different parts. Think of an inner critic, for example, as one part. They all serve a purpose, even the most destructive ones have protective intentions.  Parts are often frozen in past traumas when their extreme rules are needed When they trust it's safe to step out of their roles, they are highly valuable to the system.   GET HIS NEW BOOK No bad Parts   SIGN UP FOR THE SIBLING WORKSHOP All About Siblings-Two-Part Workshop Join us LIVE for this two-part workshop on: October 21, 12pm Eastern/11am Central November 4, 12pm Eastern/11am Central Learn more and get your ticket >>>https://www.eventbrite.com/e/182608967337 We are going to dive deep into the key mindset shifts you need to confidently navigate your kids relationships with each other.
