This short episode is a short meditation. That's it. Here's to taking a moment for yourself. Enjoy.

Dick Schwartz began his career as a systemic family therapist and an academic. Grounded in systems thinking, Dr. Schwartz developed Internal Family Systems (IFS) in response to clients’ descriptions of various parts within themselves. He focused on the relationships among these parts and noticed that there were systemic patterns to the way they were organized across clients. He also found that when the clients’ parts felt safe and were allowed to relax, the clients would experience spontaneously the qualities of confidence, openness, and compassion that Dr. Schwartz came to call the Self. He found that when in that state of Self, clients would know how to heal their parts.In this episode, we speak about: What it means to have an ‘Internal Family’ and what Dick discovered about the personality system as he started to develop the model. The similarities and differences between mindfulness meditation and IFS. What 'Self Leadership' means and how to cultivate its essence that is within all of us. Dick’s journey on discovering his own Self. Intimate relationships, ‘Tor-Mentors’, and why these people are so important in our life.For more information on Internal Family Systems, check them out at https://ifs-institute.com/.
