Video Description
Parts work, IFS therapy, unblending from protectors and really understanding that there are truly "no bad parts," for an in depth discussion of these topics and more check out the Q&A livestream for this video here: https://youtu.be/Pj8uGZJXQuo Welcome to Part 3 of my series: What is IFS? Internal Family Systems Therapy, Explained. In this video, I discuss parts work and how IFS uses the technique of unblending from our protector parts in order to help us to break free from old patterns and strong emotional reactions that make us feel out of control. I explain the neuroscience of implicit memory and why the patterns we learned in childhood are so difficult to change. I discuss IFS's approach for unblending parts, and how once we are able to get some perspective from "our parts" and see them as just a part of a larger self, we are able to connect with a wiser adult self, the "true self," who can care for our inner child. I describe what "protectors" are, and how to work with these protector parts. Finally, I explain how this parts work can unlock our capacity for self leadership and rescue the wounded parts beneath our protector parts, who needed protecting. #toriolds #partswork #ifs #selfcompassion 00:00 Why Are Old Patterns So Hard to Break? 05:02 Unblending Parts 08:09 Self Therapy: Caring For Our Parts 10:06 What are Protectors or Protector Parts? 13:36 “Self Leadership” in IFS 14:58 Once You’ve Unblended from Protector Parts, What’s Next?
