In this episode, we explore the concept of re-parenting ourselves. And how all of us, no matter how wonderful or disastrous the parenting was that we received as children, benefit from learning to lead ourselves from the perspective of the unconditionally loving adult Self (Big S) within.

Internal Family Systems therapy (or IFS) is transforming the field of psychology, captivating interest among professionals and laypeople alike in the relatively few years since Dr. Richard C. Schwartz first introduced his revolutionary model. Bestselling author Gabby Bernstein proclaims herself to be among the growing number of people whose lives have been improved in seemingly miraculous ways through IFS. In this podcast, Tami Simon speaks with Schwartz and Bernstein about the unique ways in which IFS can heal and deepen our intimate relationships.  Give a listen to this empowering discussion of “Courageous Love,” exploring: breaking the “mono-mind” paradigm; uncovering the core Self; coming into full integration and aligning with the truth of who you are; being Self-led in relationships; a four-step method for engaging compassion, curiosity, connection, and choice; asking yourself, “What do I need right now?”; IFS as a devotional practice; becoming “the primary caretaker of our exiles”; the burden of worthlessness; the intensity of our protector parts; IFS for conflict resolution and the practice of speaking about our parts instead of from our parts; calling a time-out to return to calm and presence; the cumulative nature of the energy of the Self; why we need to dialogue with our parts before we try to discuss them with others; the vulnerability of courageous love; the magic of clarity; and more. Note: This episode originally aired on Sounds True One, where these special episodes of Insights at the Edge are available to watch live on video and with exclusive access to Q&As with our guests.

In this episode I interview Richard C Schwartz, the creator of Internal Family Systems (IFS). IFS is a highly effective, evidence-based therapeutic model that de-pathologizes the multipart personality. We discuss:How he came to develop this system and how it is helping millions around the world How the mind is naturally multiple and that is a good thing.How IFS creates inner and outer connectedness by helping people first access their Self and, from that core, come to understand and heal their parts.

In this episode I have a paradigm shift that will alter your drive. We are all raised in the mono-mind belief system, the idea that we have one mind, and from this one mind we have an infinite amount of differing thoughts and emotions and impulses and urges. That we often feel are competing against each other. We think of our good selves and our bad selves. Our healthy and unhealthy aspects. And we get frustrated and feel guilty that our one mind seems so schizophrenic. My guest today has a very different theory and perspective. From his research he believes we have a multiple personality, and all the parts are doing what they are supposed to. If we understand this, we can use them in harmony to help us be our best selves. Richard C. Schwartz, is an American systemic family therapist, academic, author, and creator of the Internal Family Systems branch of therapy. He developed his foundational work with IFS in the 1980s after noticing that his clients were made up of many different pieces or "parts" of their "Self.” Dick is currently on the faculty of Harvard Medical School, and his latest of five books is called, No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model. The forward is by renowned music artist, Alanis Morissette who credits Dick's work with IFS as revolutionizing her own therapy and life perspective and even bringing her to her core spirituality. Famed physician Gabor Maté and psychologist Bessel Van Der Kolk attest to IFS as one of the most innovative and transformational therapies to have emerged in the present century. I sat down with Dick to dig into Internal Family Systems and the message in his new book, No Bad Parts, to uncover how changing our paradigm on the different parts of our minds can significantly alter what drives us for the better.

Episode 119. In today's solo episode, I'm going to share some of what I've learned about IFS and how it works based on both my personal and professional experiences thus far. I'm also going to talk about learning to slow down, how it's a journey I'm still on, and how IFS helps me actually do it, specifically focusing on my example of my Overworking Part, which I learned as I talked through this episode is very linked with my "Optimizing my Experience" Part (also described in my episode with Randi Rubenstein). In this episode I share my process of recognizing my Overworking/Optimizing Parts, appreciating them, and helping to do things (like record this episode for you!) from a more embodied and grounded place. In the middle of the episode, I lead you through an IFS based meditation to get to know a Protector Part of yours, Overworking Part or otherwise. Then I cover 3 of the main lessons I've learned from experiencing IFS. Without further ado, let's dive in! But First, Words of Wisdom “Compassion as a spontaneous aspect of Self blew my mind, because I'd always assumed and learned that compassion was something you had to develop. There's this idea—especially in some spiritual circles—that you have to build up the muscle of compassion over time, because it's not inherent. Again, that's the negative view on human nature at play. To be clear, what I mean by compassion is the ability to be in Self with somebody when they're really hurting and feel for them, but not be overwhelmed by their pain. You can only do that if you've done it within yourself. That is, if you can be with your own exiles without blending and being overwhelmed by them and instead show them compassion and help them, then you can do the same for someone in pain who's sitting across from you.”― Richard C. Schwartz, No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model The Top 3 Lessons I Have Learned Through Experiencing IFS Cognitive Self-Compassion is Very Different Than Heart Self Compassion. It's totally different. And I was definitely always practicing the cognitive type. This really came to light for me when I talked with Dr. Allyn Richards in episode 108 (you can listen here). We both experienced compassion for ourselves by practicing IFS in a way that was totally different than anything we've tried to do in the past. You Have to Life it to Give It. Hearing this always felt annoying to me. But also so true. I always heard that you shouldn't teach meditation if you don't have a meditation practice. Well, I occasionally taught it, but I definitely didn't have a practice. Talking About Parts is Very Different than Talking to and Building a Relationship with Parts. One of my trainers in my Level 1 mentioned that she often sees therapists saying they are doing IFS, when really they are talking about parts with clients, which can be helpful. Many of us, therapists especially, have developing amazing conceptualization and analyzing parts that helped us a TON. And also, they are still parts. When you truly build a relationship with and honor these parts, new levels of healing and embodiment open up, likely that you didn't believe were truly possible.

A recording of excerpts from a SAND Community Gathering hosted by Zaya and Maurizio Benazzo. Trauma has a way of separating us from parts of ourselves. Painful experiences cause protective parts to take over, isolating our inner wounds in an effort to help us survive. Yet, avoiding our emotional injuries rarely leads to true healing. In this conversation, Internal Family System (IFS) founder Richard Schwartz outlined how to transform our relationship with the wounded parts holding our unresolved injuries. Richard C.

In this episode we talk about whether healing from trauma is like healing from a physical wound: do our bodies innately know how to do it? How do we tap into that knowledge? And what is the role of others, such as a therapist, in the healing process? Sarah shares a quote this week from the book Internal Family Systems Therapy, 2nd edition, by Richard C. Schwartz and Martha Sweezy. On the Resilient Birth podcast, Justine and Sarah explore the impact of trauma in the perinatal period. Through an inspirational quote that drives the weekly content, Justine and Sarah explore various trauma areas with vulnerability and compassion that support birthing people and birth professionals. Each week, listeners leave with takeaways to utilize in their lives and/or clients. Justine and Sarah hold the stories they share with honor and respect with the hope to impart knowledge, increase understanding, and bear witness to this challenging topic. Sarah is a licensed mental health counselor, educator, and mom of three. She walks with a story of trauma from before and as a result of her perinatal experience. Justine supports survivors of trauma through perinatal coaching and childbirth education. As well as being a mother of three, she holds a Ph.D. on representations of consent and sexual violence.

In this episode Kate and Deb discuss the integrative therapeutic approach called Internal Family Systems therapy and how to use it with mothering. The Internal Family Systems Model is an approach to individual psychotherapy developed by Richard C. Schwartz in the 1980s. It combines systems thinking with the view that the mind is made up of relatively discrete sub-personalities, each with its own unique viewpoint and qualities. By learning how different parts function as a system and how the overall system reacts to other systems and other people, people in therapy can often become better able to identify the roots of conflict, manage any complications arising, and achieve greater well-being. The IFS model has 5 basic assumptions: The human mind is subdivided into an unknown number of parts. Each person has a Self, and the Self should be the chief agent in coordinating the inner family. Parts engaging in non-extreme behavior are beneficial to the individual. There is no such thing as a “bad part.” Therapy aims to help parts discover their non-extreme roles. Personal growth and development leads to the development of the internal family. Interactions between parts become more complex, allowing for systems theory to be applied to the internal system. Reorganization of the internal system may lead to rapid changes in the roles of parts. Adjustments made to the internal system will result in changes to the external system and vice versa. Therefore, both the internal and external systems need to be adequately assessed. Disclosure, Deb has been studying IFS for about 4 years and attempted to give a very simple description of the practice so listeners can start to understand the concept. This practice has many terms that she did not go into such as; “managers, firefighters, blending, unburdening” and so on. This was intentional because Kate and Deb did not want to overwhelm the listener. There are many great resources to deepen your understanding of this model, but some great book recommendations include “The Sum of All Parts” and “No Bad Parts” both by Richard Schwartz.

Uri Talmor (Gen X) joins Kiki (GenZ) and Yo (Boomer) to talk about Internal Family Systems (IFS). Uri has been a psychotherapist since 2004 and has been using Internal Family Systems or IFS since 2003 in his practice. The goal of IFS therapy is to help people identify and accept the different parts of themselves and heal the parts that are wounded. Kiki had recommended the book, No Bad Parts, by Richard Schwartz, PhD, for the podcast and Uri has graciously shared his expertise. This recording was so juicy we had to break it into 2 parts so be sure to listen to both to get all the aspects of this model. One of our goals as a podcast is to help us all know ourselves better so we understand our leadership style and how we can hold ourselves back. This discussion is to help you see some of the aspects of who you are, where those tendencies might come from, and how to embrace and have compassion for ourselves, so we can have it for others. 3 Takeaways:   1.   IFS is a method that brings us a way to see ourselves as a complete Self with no bad parts.  2.   We can embrace our exiles, fire fighter, and manager – acknowledge and validate them. 3.   The Self is characterized by what IFS calls the 8C's: compassion, curiosity, clarity, creativity, calm, confidence, courage, and connectedness. As opposed to many other models, IFS holds that everyone has access to these qualities at their core.

On this episode of The 10 Ninety Podcast Mason and Ryan talk about their experience with IFS therapy.  IFS therapy was introduced to them by Matt Quackenbush.  Matt recommended the book "No Bad Parts" as an introduction to IFS therapy.  IFS, founded in the early 1980's by Dr. Richard C. Schwartz, serves as both a psychotherapy modality & a mental paradigm. In clinical settings, practitioners and patients have seen positive outcomes using IFS to treat trauma, depression, and anxiety. 

It's time to talk about purity culture! Join Andrew and Laura as they begin a mini-series on all things purity culture. In today's episode we discuss the history of purity culture, our own experiences in it, the long term impacts it's had on their clients and some of the ways they work with clients when it comes to recovering from purity culture. This is the first episode in a 6-episode series where we will be discussing the impact of purity culture, some of the specific implications for individuals socialized male and female (since in purity culture there is a very rigid, binary gender concept) as well as talk to people about their lived experiences of healing from purity culture.  And, you won't want to miss today's vocabulary lesson where we ask…what is an Inner Child? Do we actually have a tiny child living within us?  Resources mentioned in the podcast episode:  Homecoming by John Bradshaw No Bad Parts by Richard C.

This is quite a unique episode. It's about an hour-long conversation that Dr. Richard Schwartz, the founder of Internal Family Systems, had with a group of mental health clinicians. He's sharing his IFS model and taking questions from the group. The group is Mondays with Moshe and you'll hear from its creator, Moshe Norman, in just a few minutes. But I wanted to tell you a few things about the episode before you get to the main content. This is a recording of a live conversation. The audio at times isn't the best. However, it's clear enough that you should be able to make out what is being said and asked. Dr Scwartz's audio is great but some of the audio from the group is a little fuzzy or just not so clear.  The group is composed of mental health clinicians who are mainly Jewish so you may hear some phrases or words that you aren't familiar with however the content shared is definitely clinical and not from a religious perspective.

This podcast is focused on Empaths. It explains who Empaths are, how one becomes an empath, and what all empaths need to know. Empaths bring the gift of caring to people around them. A world without empathy and compassion is a world without nourishing connections, a desert without water. If you are an empath, you need to embrace your empathic gift, but you also need to become curious how you acquired that gift.  This Podcast is meant to raise awareness about empathic aspect of personality and how one becomes an empath. It also explains how empaths absorb the emotional burdens of others, and how they can protect themselves from that by transforming their empathy to compassion. More specifically, we cover the following topics: - How to know if you are an empath?- Understanding the difference between Sympathy, Empathy, and Compassion- Noticing the difference between Empaths and Compassionate Individuals     - Understanding how one becomes an Empath- And, Transforming your Empathic Gift to Compassion    This podcast is produced by Aion Farvahar, who is a Life and Spirituality Mentor, and a Psychoshamanic and IFS Self-Leadership Practitioner.

In this episode of the Human Capital podcast, Jeff welcomes a special guest from Australia, Cassandra Goodman, who introduces her latest book titled "Being True." What makes Cassie stand out is her wealth of experience in the business world and her extensive time as a senior executive and an external consultant. She has made a significant impact on renowned companies like GE, Adobe, and Mastercard, but what really sets Cassie apart is her mission to help leaders embrace their authentic selves, quirks and all. She's not just a fountain of innovative ideas, but also a fantastic role model for genuine self-expression. During their conversation, Jeff and Cassie dive into the intriguing concept of "True Leadership." They chat about how this approach requires us to let go of the traditional norms of leadership we're accustomed to. They dig deep into the significance of getting back in touch with our inner essence, understanding the different aspects of ourselves, and how being true to who we are can profoundly enhance our leadership with empathy and effectiveness. Cassie calls upon the well known therapeudic modality of Internal Family Systems (IFS), founded by Dr. Richard C. Schwartz, Ph.D. and leverages this to boast healthier "internal" and "external" leadership.

In today's video, I am hosted by my husband's channel, Nightlight Astrology, to explore a book we are reading together called, "No Bad Parts" by Richard C. Schwartz. The idea of our psyche as one continuous whole Self is only one way modern psychology understands the mind, and in this video, we look at the current Sun square Uranus transit and how it brings up questions around wholeness and parts. We hope you enjoy this discussion of IFS (Internal Family Systems) and how this perspective might open us up to a different way of working with our psyche this week!RESOURCES "No Bad Parts" by Richard C.

There are different parts of ourselves that come up to the surface…that come up, that show up when we are being attacked or when we feel like we need to protect. And, it's only because there are certain parts of ourselves that's triggered. – Dr. Neeta Bhushan   Hey there, Brave Table fam! In today's episode, we're diving deep into a topic that's crucial to our relational success. We'll be exploring the concept of gaslighting - what it is, how to spot it in ourselves and those around us, and how it can affect our relationships. I'll be sharing some powerful techniques to help you navigate those tough conversations and challenging emotions that we all face from time to time.   In this episode, I talk about… Breaking down empathy, recognizing when others are denying experiences & minimizing feelings. Shifting blame, creating conflict & their impact on communication. Knowing your emotional Type & reacting in tough moments   It's so important to remember to acknowledge and validate the emotions of others, and equally vital to practice self-awareness and self-compassion in our own lives.

“And now 40 years later, thousands of parts and thousands of people using this all over the world, we can safely say that Self is in everybody; it can't be damaged, it knows how to heal, and it is just beneath the surface of these parts…and psychedelics seem to have a way to access that pretty quickly.” Welcome to Integrating Psychedelics, featuring insights gleaned from psychedelic experiences and conversations around how to integrate this wisdom into our daily lives. I'm your host, Jenny Weinar, and in today's episode I'm speaking with Dick Schwartz. Richard C. Schwartz, PhD, is the creator of Internal Family Systems, a highly effective, evidence-based therapeutic model that de-pathologizes the multi-part personality.

Dick lives with his wife Jeanne near Chicago, close to his three daughters and his growing number of grandchildren. In this conversation we discuss: How listening to his patients led Dick to develop the therapeutic model of Internal Family Systems How IFS is fundamentally different than most other paradigms for understanding the psyche The role of inner child parts in the IFS framework The goals of IFS and how it differs from mindfulness How parts work fits naturally with psychedelics The problem with the concept of ego dissolution The relationship of IFS to set, setting and psychedelic facilitators My personal experience incorporating IFS with ketamine Why parts work is helpful for people who seemingly don't respond to the medicine How the inner work of IFS extends to social justice and the world at large Why it's vital to follow up with parts even after healing has occurred Dick's vision for the future of IFS ...and more!

Welcome to this episode of the podcast, where we will be exploring the world of Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy and its powerful 6 F's process for unburdening and finding relief. In this episode, you will learn: What Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy is and how it can help you understand and work with different parts of yourself The 6 F's process for exploring and unburdening these parts: Find, Focus, Flesh Out, Feel Towards, Friend, and Fear A guided meditation that will take you through the 6 F's process to help you find peace and relief from the burdens of your internal parts. IFS therapy recognizes that each person is an ecosystem, with a core self at the center and a multitude of parts that exist around it. Through this process, you will be able to identify and communicate with these parts, understand their role and purpose, and build a relationship with them from a place of self-compassion and validation. Join us as we take a journey of self-discovery, and discover a new way of finding peace and relief with your internal parts. This podcast is inspired by the work of Dr. Richard C. Schwartz, the Developer of the Internal Family Systems method, and brought to you by Mentally Fit. Don't forget to share this episode with a friend who could benefit from this guided meditation.

A part of me really wants to eat the chocolate that I recently bought a whole stash of because it's on sale and it's my fav. I thought I'd be thrifty and stock up for seasonal baking. I love using chopped dark chocolate bars in my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe. But another part of me says, "once on the lips, twice on the hips." And another part of me says, "just finish it all right now you don't need to save any for cookies. That way you can get back on track tomorrow!" It's common to think in parts like this. Part of you wants to do this, while part of you says you should/need to do that. What you may not realize is this way of parts-thinking is called the Internal Family Systems Model (IFS) and was created by Richard C. Schwartz in the 1980s. As an evidence-based model, IFS helps to explain why different parts of you tell you different stories about a situation - like eating chocolate.  My guest today, beautifully explains this model using her own personal experience of healing from years of disordered eating. Agnis J Pena-Toro, MA is a trained psychotherapist and Body and Food Liberation coach and consultant. Based on her own personal experience healing from decades of diet culture harm and her professional clinical experience working with Internal Family Systems, Agnis helps women discover how to live their lives without restricting food and forcing their bodies to look a certain way.  Here's what you'll hear in our conversation: How diet culture starts to indoctrinate many women at the age of puberty.    Agnis shares her personal journey toward body and food liberation by divorcing from diet culture. And she's spent years counseling people using the IFS model. Hear how Agnis combines her personal and professional experience to help other women on the road to healing from chronic dieting.   Agnis explains the importance of becoming aware of the body and food parts in your mind (a part that wants to be skinny so you can be accepted/loved; a part of you that hates dieting but still believes that's the only way to be healthy; a part of you that was traumatized as a kid by your body being criticized by parents and culture, etc.)   As we wrap up, Agnis shares why it's important to work psychologically with these parts in your mind so that the parts don't sabotage your practice of reclaiming intuitive eating skills and positive body image.    Get show notes and resources at www.alpinenutrition.org/blog Are your parts getting in the way of an unhealthy relationship with food?

“What's healing is the self to part relationship. And that relationship gets built based on the part being able to tell its story without repercussions.” In this episode of the Mindspace podcast, Dr. Joe speaks with Dr. Robert Grant. Dr. Grant is an Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist, a ketamine-assisted psychotherapist, a pulmonary physician, a professor of medicine at UCSF, a former researcher in HIV prevention and treatment, and a cofounder of the Healing Realms Center (healingrealmscenter.com). The Healing Realms Center is a clinic specializing in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. Dr. Grant is especially well known for his work as an IFS therapist specializing in ketamine treatments. IFS was developed by Dr. Richard C. Schwartz. It is a therapy based on the notion that the human mind is made up of inner parts. And healing involves the cultivation of harmony among these parts. It is commonly used in the treatment of post-traumatic stress. In this interview Dr. Joe and Dr. Grant explored: - How his research into preventing HIV led him to studying IFS - What “parts” mean in the IFS model - The three most common types of parts: Managers, Exiles, and Firefighters - What “self” mean in the context of IFS - How parts become burdened by trauma - The role of “self” in healing - The 6 F's: Find, Focus, Flesh it out, Feel, beFriend, and Fear - What ‘unblending' is - Why IFS fits so well with psychedelics

In this episode, which originally aired in radio format on December 9th, 2021, I explore some ideas from the book Internal Family Systems Therapy, by Richard C. Schwartz. According to IFS, we all have at least 5-15 different "parts" (subpersonalities) within us. Some are Managers, some are Firefighters, and some are the reason that Managers and Firefighters exist in the first place: Exiles. The goal of IFS therapy is to help these parts trust the Self. BYOBF! (Be Your Own Best Friend!) Distinguish your true voice from the many false (misguided, protective, frightened, hurt) voices you've internalized. I will also explore, through an IFS lens, some of my experience of having an eating disorder many years ago as an adolescent. 

On this episode of Holding Ground psychotherapist Laura Richer and Marriage and Family Therapy Intern Denise Johnson discuss Internal Family Systems therapy aka IFS. IFS is a therapy that was developed by Richard C. Schwartz. Denise and Laura talk about how this effective therapy can help clients better understand their own inner conflict and create positive change in their lives by understanding and addressing issues related to trauma, addiction, and self-sabotaging behaviors.

In this episode of Vital Psychedelic Conversations, Kyle and David interview the author of “No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model" and IFS creator: Dr. Richard C. Schwartz.  www.psychedelicstoday.com

I recently started reading a new book and wanted to share if with you here. In his book, "No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model," Richard C. Schwartz, goes into detail about Internal Family Systems (IFS) and how they apply to our present day. We all have different parts of us that have been developed over our lifetime. They get buried in the subconscious and can sometimes make us act or react in ways we don't understand. IFS helps to open us up to learn more about these parts to discover their true motive, emotions, beliefs, and what they might be able to do to be more constructive in our lives. When we first become aware of these parts, we can be mindful of them to help them clear out, so that we can develop a relationship with our true Self. Join me for this episode as I share more about this concept and this book.

In this interview, Dick discusses how his work with families lead to him learning from clients about their parts. He discusses how his clients talked about their parts, and at first he and his client tried to argue against that part and try to get rid of it or for it to not be doing what it was doing. When this wasn't working, he and his clients began to have compassion for those parts, and learn about what they needed, and how they were trying to protect the client. He explained he conceptualizes parts as natural and universal, rather than something only born out of trauma and being indicative of pathology. He explained how he conceptualizes a Self, which is the part that is the leader, essential, wise part, and how other parts exist from the beginning of our lives, but sometimes, just like in families, they take on roles to protect the system. He talked about how these parts reminded him of children in the families who he worked with that were trying to help the family system by taking on roles. Using this conceptualization, he worked with the parts as children in the family who were trying to stabilize the system, and instead helping the Self to connect with these parts, and relieve them of their need to try to protect. He explained that the goal of IFS is not to integrate, as that would suggest that the goal is to not have the parts, but more for the parts to feel safe, and coexist in a healthy system, just like a healthy family. During the interview, Dick demonstrates the technique of unblending with Keith, the interviewer, and uses this demonstration to further explain the aspects of IFS including the Protectors, the FireFighters, and the Exiled Parts. He discusses working with complex trauma with IFS, using IFS with couples and families, and his next chapter in his career, making IFS more accessible to the public through books or apps or other ways that people in the public can use it, not just only in therapy. Richard C. Schwartz, Ph.D., is the founder of The IFS Institute, originally named The Center for Self Leadership. He 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. A featured speaker for national professional organizations, Dr. Schwartz has published many books and over fifty articles about IFS.

It is particularly effective in treating trauma. Integrating the IFS model within counseling guides the client to 1) identify the self-protective function of polarized cognitions expressed through eating and resultant eating disorder behaviors; 2) identify and address the cognitive, emotional, and physical triggers driving this internal dialogue particularly the anticipation of the loss of control, negative self-evaluations, and self-blaming, self-shaming thoughts; 3) identify the ambivalence behind nutritious vs. inappropriate eating patterns, and 4) identify fears and other feelings that arise in response to shifting to more nourishing choices. There is more information about IFS at https://ifs-institute.com/  This interactive workshop is designed to give dietitians a comprehensive introduction to the IFS model. The concepts and processes of IFS will be examined from a dietitian's perspective using a mix of presentation, small and large group discussion, demonstration, short videos, and practice.  Educational Objectives:  Discover the basic concepts of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) Model.  Examine how the IFS model approaches the treatment of eating disorders and disordered eating.  Integrate the IFS model concepts with clients with disordered eating.  Differentiate the role of the Dietitian in an IFS treatment team.  Evaluate the issues that arise for dietitians who adopt the IFS model.  Suggested pre-workshop reading: Introduction to the Internal Family Systems Model, by Richard C. Schwartz.  https://ifs-institute.com/store  We highly recommend reading this prior to the workshop if you have had little or no exposure to IFS.  Beth Harrell Follow Beth on Instagram  

Richard C. Schwartz, is the founder of a style of psychotherapy called Internal Family Systems. IFS is based on the idea that the mind is made up of discrete subpersonalities and that healing occurs when they are brought into harmony. Dick is bullish about psychedelics as a way of accessing and understanding these different subpersonalities or “parts” and believes that IFS can be a helpful topography for anyone doing psychedelic-assisted therapy. On the show we discuss the IFS system and why it's particularly good for working with trauma. Dick shares his personal experiences with psychedelic medicines and Eamon shares his own spontaneous IFS work during his iboga journey. We talk about how IFS can inform psychedelic-assisted therapy and why a knowledge of parts is important for the therapist. We talk about indigenous wisdom traditions and the spirit guides of the DMT world. As always, we conclude with Dick's specific advice to the aspiring psychedelic therapist. It is an honor to speak to such an affable and studied luminary in the field of Psychology and we are excited to bring you other perspectives beyond the psychedelic community moving forward. One important note: This podcast, Maya, and I personally support the Black Lives Matter movement. We recognize that the Psychedelic Renaissance has challenges with diversity and we commit to continuing to platform the enormous gifts of BIPOC communities as well as subjects like equal access to psychedelic medicine, healing ancestral trauma, and social justice on this podcast. There are many brilliant melanated voices carrying psychedelic wisdom, if you'd like to nominate a guest for this show, please let us know in the Psychedelic Therapy Facebook group.
