My aim in all Deeper Intimacy with Yourself (DIY) IFS groups is to present a simple concept that can transform the way you practice IFS with yourself. A little bit of IFS goes a long way, and if you take in ONE concept in a class, play with it, practice it, and incorporate it, that can be much more powerful than learning ten different techniques but not fully embodying any of them.
Less is more!
Parts’ Voices: Tuesday Nov. 5 at 11.30 am CST
The Parts’ Voices class on Nov. 5 will explore the difference between speaking for a part and speaking from a part. Specifically, we’ll inquire into how to speak FROM a part while ALSO NOT being blended with the part.
Blended = I’m a part, I don’t know I’m a part. But what if you speak FROM a part, but the part knows it is a part and you know it is a part? I don’t consider that blended. I call that EMBODIED.
I propose there is a spectrum of knowing / not knowing if you are a part, which is:
Blended and speaking FROM the part— I’m taken over by a part
Unblended and speaking for the part — I (or some other part I’m slightly blended with) speaks FOR a part that I know is a part
Embodied: Unblended and speaking FROM the part — the part speaks for itself, knows it is a part, and I know it is a part.
This is the concept we will practice in the Nov. 5 Parts’ Voices class. There is more to it than this, but that’s the basis for the class.
Due to the date of the class, it’s a great day to hear directly from our parts, as it is US Presidential Election day, and our parts may need extra understanding on that day.
I invite you to get the care you and your parts may need by joining in this small, safe space for some Self-energy and parts support!
