Loving all of your parts
Parts work is a critical piece of the healing process when there is internal conflict over unwanted behaviors and thought patterns. These can often manifest as physical symptoms, and rob us of our health.
IFS is a foundational concept used across related fields of study that works with different ego states, specifically when applied to the inner child and authority figures. We also work with the inner critic and parts of our psyche that hold us back from reaching our full potential.
Within this framework, there is emphasis on supporting all aspects of the psyche, coming to a resolution, and then finally, integration. This happens after examining what parts emerge, and what functions or roles are played during times of trouble, in order to protect and soothe the wounded and fearful components of our interior space.
By observing this critical interior infrastructure and engaging these parts in hypnosis, we bypass our inner sensors and work towards reframing, and setting them up for success in their new roles, rewritten to more closely match and support the new goals we establish together.
