Discussed in this episode: Dr. Greg Bottaro's eye-opening experiences on his whirlwind three-week tour across Australia; Surprising cultural differences between the U.S. and Australia when it comes to mental health and faith; What Australians can teach us about staying anchored in faith in a secular society; Personal stories of accompanying others through journeys of anxiety, doubt, and growth; Katherine's unique insights on the overlap of faith and mental health in spiritual direction; Mental distress issues that Katherine sees come up often in spiritual direction; Different ways scrupulosity manifests itself in the lives of dedicated Catholics; Why the spiritual dimension of the person needs to be front and center for any Catholic utilizing mental health services; Being created in God's image means our core orientation is towards goodness and growth, despite any suffering or mental health challenges; Relationships “clear the path” for us to rediscover our goodness and move toward wholeness; Relationships in accompaniment provide individuals with a genuine sense of being deeply loved; The ultimate goal of the healing relationship is to guide us toward a deeper, more profound relationship with God; Why a deep understanding of Catholic anthropology matters in therapy; Those providing accompaniment—whether in therapy, mentorship, or spiritual direction—need support, too; The importance of having a support system and avoiding burnout by staying anchored; The “one foot on shore, one foot in the water” approach: balancing immersion in others' experiences with personal grounding; Utilizing "parts work" to explore the various aspects of a person's identity, including the parts that hold anxiety or fear; Acknowledging and welcoming these anxious parts is essential, rather than fighting against them; Love and acceptance of each part of oneself facilitate a path toward greater wholeness and peace; Why faith and psychology aren't in opposition—and how they powerfully work together.

Within Catholic circles in recent years, a new psychological approach has gained traction: Internal Family Systems (IFS). Our hosts believe this approach offers a deeply insightful way of understanding our complex inner world, that synchronizes well with a Christian anthropology. While not professing to be experts, our hosts offer their own understanding and experience of IFS as a way of introducing listeners to the topic, and of encouraging them to explore it for themselves. Questions addressed include: Why does IFS claim that we have "parts" within ourselves? What is the "inmost self", and why is this concept so important? What are some practical applications from IFS for our own inner healing journey? *We apologize for technical errors in the initial release. This is the fixed version. Litanies of Heart, book by Dr. Gerry Ken Crete https://a.co/d/8zVODuZ

This week we're joined by special guest Dr. Gerry Crete. We talk about some of the concepts from his book, Litanies of the Heart. We talk about the studies and prayer he's had over the years which led throughout his work. We talk about the inner self, the different parts that make up ourselves, and how the parts can interact with each other and our inner self.References:Litanies of the Heart by Dr. Gerry CreteFollow and Contact Us!Follow us on Instagram and FacebookWe're on YouTube!Join our Goodreads GroupFr.

In this episode, Dr. Gerry Crete explores parts theory through the fascinating lens of Marvel superheroes, The Lord of the Rings, Scripture, and the saints. A master at leading people into their interior life, Dr. Gerry leads an experiential activity to connect the dots between parts work and inner peace. Discussed in this episode:  What parts theory is (parts work, IFS, Internal Family Systems, Ego State Therapy) How parts theory helps deepen our spiritual life Within each human person, there is a multiplicity Marvel's “Avengers” movie as a portrayal of integration We relate to the characters in the “Avengers” movie because in them we see something of ourselves Parts work through the lens of The Lord of the Rings and the characters of Middle-earth A guided experiential activity to make parts work practical and personal What blending is and how unblending with parts gives access to our deep spiritual center Insights of parts work from the writings of the saints and from Scripture The sad reality that most people loathe themselves and how that limits love for others The goal in therapeutic work is to experience inner harmony (when our parts are unburdened and integrated) Resources mentioned or relevant:  Litanies of the Heart: Relieving Post-Traumatic Stress and Calming Anxiety Through Healing our Parts by Dr. Gerry Crete Learn more about our Certification program: CatholicPsych Model of Applied Personalism CatholicPsych's annual Summit of Integration Need help?

Welcome to Episode 176 of the Being Human Podcast: Human Suffering and Healing: A Roundtable Discussion with Dr. Paul Vitz, Dr. Gerry Crete and Mother Natalia In this episode, Dr. Greg had a great conversation with Dr. Paul Vitz, his professor from the Institute for Psychological Sciences, Mother Natalia from Christ the Bridegroom Monastery, and Dr. Gerry Crete, the author of Litanies of the Heart. Their discussion highlighted the deep interconnection between psychological and spiritual healing. They also critiqued contemporary psychology and cultural trends, challenging the dangers of individualism while promoting the importance of community and connection. By drawing parallels with Jesus' suffering on the cross, they reflected on the significance of relationships and compassion in navigating life's complexities.   Discussed in the episode: A discussion on the significance of integrating psychology and faith to purify and strengthen one's understanding of human suffering Reflections on how suffering can serve as a common denominator that connects us all - how it brings us together, and how it provides us a path to deeper understanding of the human person Recognizing the beauty of how wounded healers are capable of sharing a unique perspective from their own experiences of suffering and healing, and how through this, they are able to provide genuine support and guidance to others Understanding the impact and dangers of today's cultural emphasis on autonomy, and how this often leads people to isolation and anxiety An exploration on how today's culture teaches us to avoid the discomfort of “suffering with” others, resorting to quick fixes when it comes to healing and transformation Insights on how one's personal relationship with God and relationship with others is essential in the healing process, and how it is through this can one experience true freedom, healing and transformation    Resources mentioned or relevant:  You're invited to CatholicPsych's first-ever live event to celebrate the beauty and power of integration!

In this week's episode, we reflect on leading with our God-given authority rather than worldly influence. We discuss the importance of remembering our identity in Christ and how true authority is a display of intimacy that has been rooted in a real tangible love. We share the ways we may have been wounded by authority figures in our past, why these wounds can distort our perception of authority, and how to heal from these wounds so that we can lead others into the light of Christ.   Heather's One Thing - Chicken Khao Soi (Thai Coconut Curry Noodle Soup) from My Kitchen Little Sister Miriam's On Thing - The book Litanies of the Heart by Dr Gerry Crete Michelle's One Thing - Beatify: Lullabies with the Saints (an album of Catholic lullabies) from Beatify with Josh Blakesley and Kelly Lombardi   Other Resources Mentioned:  The Restore the Glory Podcast series on Parts Work (Parts Work (Part 1) w/ Gerry Crete; Parts Work (Part 2) w/ Brya Hanan; Parts Work (Part 3) w/ Bishop Andrew Miller)   Journal Questions: How have I abdicated my God-given authority? When do I perceive surrender to be a form of defeat? How has authority been misused in my life? How is God inviting me to stay with Him in faithfulness and obedience? Where do I need to be both honoring and honest?   Discussion Questions: How often do you think God is holding out on you? How do I lose sight of God-given authority by seeking out worldly influence? What accountability do I need to choose surrendered, God-given authority over worldly influence? When have you felt safe under God's authority? How do you need to grow and mature to better lead and serve others?   Quote to Ponder: “The fourth commandment opens the second table of the Decalogue. It shows us the order of charity. God has willed that, after him, we should honor our parents to whom we owe life and who have handed on to us the knowledge of God. We are obliged to honor and respect all those whom God, for our good, has vested with his authority.” (CCC 2197) Scripture for Lectio:  “Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them fade from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them.” (Deuteronomy 4:9) Sponsor - WalletWin: A big thank you to our sponsor WalletWin, Catholic financial formation for the whole family and creators of The Catholic Money Academy.

This week, Jake and Bob are joined by Gerry Crete, a marriage and family counselor to discuss his work on internal family systems, or parts work. Parts work is a therapeutic approach that involves exploring and understanding the different “parts” of our personality and how they can influence the decisions we make in life. Jake, Bob, and Gerry explore the transformative applications of parts work in therapy, distinguish the differences between desires and wounds, and discuss the role of love and compassion in the healing journey. For more information check out Gerry's book Litanies of the Heart.   Key Points: Parts work, or internal family systems, can lead to remarkable breakthroughs in therapy by helping individuals connect with and understand their different parts. Harmony and unity within oneself can be achieved through the integration of different parts, allowing for a more balanced and authentic experience of self. Understanding the distinction between desires and parts can help individuals navigate conflicting motivations and make choices that align with their true selves. Practical applications of parts work include using analogies and visualization techniques to help individuals relate to and understand their parts. It is important to recognize and distinguish parts from the true self, which is characterized by compassion and love.   Resources: Gerry's new book Litanies of the Heart Gerry's practice Transfiguration Counseling   Connect with Restore the Glory:  Instagram: @restoretheglorypodcast  Twitter: @RestoreGloryPod Facebook: Restore the Glory Podcast   Never miss out on an episode by hitting the subscribe button right now!

My guest, Dr. Gerry, answers questions from our live audience about his new book, Litanies of the Heart: Relieving Post-Traumatic Stress and Calming Anxiety Through Healing Our Parts. We begin by receiving some wonderful feedback for Dr. Gerry about his book. Then we dive into some questions our audience has for Dr. Gerry: 1) Can 58 years of rearranging my life to recycle the feelings of shame from being molested be resolved? 2) Can it be true that not all parts can know Jesus or not all parts can have a relationship with Him? 3) Are we naturally in self as children, before experiencing trauma? 4) In attachment terms, can misattunement happen pre-verbally, affecting access to your inmost self before you are able to express it? 5) How much culpability do we have for sinful behaviors driven by the unmet needs of parts who have good intentions? 6) What are the relationships among the inmost self, the intellect, and the will?

My guest, Dr. Gerry Crete shares with us the inside story of his brand-new book, Litanies of the Heart: Relieving Post-Traumatic Stress and Calming Anxiety through Healing Our Parts. This book grounds IFS and parts in a Catholic understanding of the human person, showing how parts work is both Biblical and harmonizable with our Catholic faith. Because the intellectual experience doesn't fully encapsulate the human experience, Dr. Gerry uses stories and vignettes in a way that connects with everyone, not just therapists. He invites all the outcast parts into relationships, making them feel safe enough to connect on a deep level with others and God.Dr. Gerry also provides a glimpse of the writing and publishing process, the challenges and struggles he faced, as well as his moments of inspiration. We discuss a few favorite pages from the book, such as Dr. Gerry's diagram of the soul and body overlapping in the heart, where all the parts are.

The show may now be called by a new name but the music stays just as brutal. The features remain the same including the usual delve into the filth pit, bands featured in the Doom Charts and albums available NYP on Bandcamp. On this, the first Anointing The Sick show, I'm opening with a track from one of my death metal albums of the year by Imperishable and closing with the sadly defunct Thorr-Axe, expect HOF type gnarliness.

This week we share a "Space for God" devotional offered by Danny Nasry. Danny guides us through two prayers: the "Litany of Humility" which has been prayed for centuries, and his own "Litany of Dignity," which he wrote as a complement to the historic prayer.  Together, the two prayers offer a beautiful and challenging invitation to uproot our most engrained sins, whether pride or self-rejection.View Our Complete Archive of “Space for God” Prayer Practicesinthecoracle.org  |  @inthecoracleSupport the show

One of the most difficult things about the faith is not simply desiring God with all of our heart, but allowing God and His desire for us to transform us and shape us. It means allowing Him to draw us into His own life and virtue. We are to become in the world what He is to us.  Therefore, we are immediately confronted with the fact that we have to let go of the limited powers of our own reason and judgment. We must place our faith and hope in the providence of God to guide us along the path that leads to salvation. Like Saint Peter there often comes a time in our life when another binds us and leads us where we do not want to go. There will likely be many occasions when we are called to die to self and sin and to live for God alone  - come what may.!  The afflictions that we bear and our desire NOT to force our will upon others can only emerge from this reality. We must put on the mind of Christ. We must become what we receive in the holy Eucharist. All that we suffer must be seen as united to Christ's redemptive work on the cross. Christianity is about as far from being a philosophical system or ideology as something could be. It is Divine Life and Love. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:01:48 FrDavid Abernethy: page 374   00:02:05 FrDavid Abernethy: Welcome Susanna   00:02:15 FrDavid Abernethy: Facebook friend :-0   00:02:33 Susanna Joy: Reacted to "Facebook friend :-0" with ☺️   00:02:49 Susanna Joy: Thank you, Father.   00:02:57 FrDavid Abernethy: You're very welcome   00:41:30 John: Would making asceticism an end in itself a type of obeying the letter of the law, rather than the spirit?   00:42:31 Susanna Joy: This is very helpful advice for me right niw, as I have been staying at my friend's spiritual community, and being so distressed at members'  contentiousness...wondering what to do and stay cenetered/bring a spirit if peace   00:42:50 Susanna Joy: *spirit of peace   00:46:15 Susanna Joy: Yes...exactly. .. Love must return to its Source in order to flow ever onward... Remembering to turn to Christ in these moments   00:49:02 TFredman: (My name is Tracey) The hardest Lent I ever had was when my spiritual director suggested a different type of fast - a fast from just what we are talking about. Taking his counsel to heart, I decided that a contentious coworker would not disturb my peace and I would love her - oh yes, she was my Lenten project. It was incredibly difficult. She did her best to destroy me and to talk about me to others and to in effect destroy our "team" during the most difficult season of our work. I suffered through that Lent and beyond more than I can express. But through it all, I was at peace and grace followed.   00:51:52 John: At a retreat in June, I was given a Holy Card with a prayer of St. Charles de Foucauld: An Act of Abandonment: "Father, I abandon myself into Your hands. Do with me what you will. Whatever You may do, I thank you. I am ready for all, I accept all. Let only your will be done in me, and in all Your creatures - I wish no more than this, O Lord. Into Your hands I commend my soul; I offer it to Thee with all the love of my heart, for I love you, Lord, and so need to give myself, to surrender myself into Your hands, without reserve, and with boundless confidence. For You are my Father. Amen.   00:52:43 carol nypaver:
