Since doing "the work" with IFS, SE, and meditation that dispersal of traumatic energy has washed through me. I listen to my body without the indoctrination of religion. When my body speaks I listen. Im not perfect but Im light years better than what I used to be.

Wow. The IFS unconference I participated in today was so good: a lovely, mellow vibe; smart people, space to connect and absorb new experiences. 👍
Looking forward to another this spring!

Just explained to a neighbour what I do.
Nothing more clarifying than a relaxed, extemporaneous chat, for figuring out what should be on my About page these days 😂.

I always find it comforting when my cat washes her face. She's getting ready to relax and nap.
I hope today you can find a moment of rest amongst the storm.

This changes the trajectory of my enneagram 2 helping. Instead of helping "to get" it becomes a release of healing within myself because it repositions my love within healthy boundaries.

Last month I completed my Internal Family Systems for Coaches training. What a mind-bender! Truly amazing!
Now I'm offering it to my longtime clients … and they're excited at the shifts it's brought them.
If you're curious, book a sample hour with me, in my profile - it's free, and no pressure […]
Our Internal Family Systems cohort ended weeks ago, but we'll have a call today and I'm really looking forward to being with my IFS coach colleagues again! \o/

Reflecting on my week:
classes, clients, self-coaching …
▪ I'm *so* impressed with how an #InternalFamilySystems approach is helping my clients access important insights, quickly. Check it out!
▪ A significant part of learning the method is doing our own inner work; I'm pleased & surprised at […]

Your nervous system needs regulation, not justification. Over performing and making yourself small to spare others feelings only hurts you. Using #IFS language, learning to communicate from "Self" for your "parts" & not from your parts creates regulation within.

Counseling is like massage therapy. We go see a masseuse when we have knots in our bodies that need care and attention to release. Seeing a counselor, coach, or therapist does the same thing but for your inner world.
Taking good care of you is important. 🤍

In a world where everyone seems to be on fire with judgment and reactivity the peaceful yet purposeful posture of Core Self is especially needed. It is the path to healing.

Trauma teaches you to close your heart and armor up. Healing teaches you to open your heart and boundary up.
A very distinct difference. One that can be felt in the body and mind.

My NY resolutions? Just more of the same really. Personal growth marked with more self-awareness. I'm continuing the journey I've been on already. Learning more about my boundaries around that learning zone and maximizing that potential within me.

This is phenomenal. I already knew IFS was a game changer for inner healing but just in case others need more "proof."

By triggering you, your partner is teaching you what you need to heal. - Richard Schwartz
Richard calls our partners our "tor-mentor" in that they mentor us in our healing in this way.

In order to love who you are, you cannot hate the experiences that shaped you. Andrea Dykstra
There is some truth to this I think but it is not wholly true. This is one of those sayings that bypasses the pain in some of those experiences. We CAN certainly hate some of our experiences. We didn't "need" it to "grow."

For those of us who have done IFS work, this is your once in a while reminder that those young exiles and protectors inside us need us to spend time with them as a good parent does with their child. We build new/healthy neural networks within with them by doing this.

Miss Feona wants you to know feelings are friends. Actions don't have to express feelings but they sure can communicate for them.
