The Basics of Internal Family Systems (IFS) with Dr. Lissa Rankin

For those new to Internal Family Systems (IFS), this online class about The Basics of Internal Family Systems (IFS) outlines the IFS model and teaches the difference between protector parts (managers and firefighters,) wounded exiles, and the wise, mature Self that heals all parts. It also describes the 6F's of "Getting To Know Your Protectors" and teaches the steps of "Unburdening The Exiles." It also offers a lens on trauma-informed medicine and how IFS might be used to help treat difficult medical and psychiatric conditions that conventional medicine might struggle to cure.

Just in teaching mode and talking about trauma, so maybe it makes me a little more serious. Don't worry. I laugh plenty in my personal life!
