My book, The One Inside: 30 Days to Your Authentic Self, is available wherever you get books. Or on amazon here:
We like to talk about Addiction on the podcast!
I’m excited to talk to Mary Kruger (again!) and Cece Skyes who wrote a Chapter in the Altogether Us book entitled, “IFS and Addiction: Compassion for the Addictive Process.”
We talk about:
- Alternatives to a manager led (client’s or family or therapist’s) “Plan”
- Working with your own parts (helper, rescue, fixer, advice giving) when working (or living) with others who have ‘Extreme Firefighters’
- “Exiling firefighters is not working”- What if we welcomed their advice and wisdom?
- Bridges
- how IFS can Bridge the polarization between the addiction world and the psychological world
- creating them between ALL parts involved in the addictive process
- bringing curiosity to the systematic interactions of the parts
Enjoy!
