Richard Schwartz: No Bad Parts

[@royce6485]

I love that this whole approach literally came down to him listening to his clients and self-reflecting on his own parts

[@Chelsea-fq5cj]

That’s how you get the job done ❤️👌

[@moniquemichelle7295]

Exactly. Really listening is revolutionary bc many therapists do not. He said in another interview that it created a belief in God for him bc he used to be an atheist. I thought that was beautiful too.

[@alison2161]

Takes humility to be able to do that.

[@andreaallen5867]

I started IFS two weeks ago. It’s really amazing getting to know myself in this way. I hope it allows me to heal what years of talk therapy could not.

[@todds.6028]

Update? Are you working with a therapist or doing it on your own?

[@samdung5630]

It is for me.

[@TenTenJ]

@@todds.6028 I have had years of different therapy and therapists, to heal the loss of a sibling. IFS is a most powerful powerful process if you really want to heal, and you put yourself into it. I still go to therapy, but I don’t do it to understand myself I do it mostly to understand other people., and I need it much less so now, because I have healed some core issues. But you do need to maintain IFS therapy periodically because those parts do get triggered.

[@carmenl163]

I've come across this kind of therapy because I was looking for ways to heal my inner wounded child. I think it's brilliant. It matches so much with my intuition about what I've done to prevent myself from going crazy because of the abuse I endured in my childhood. I can see how my protectors have served me wonderfully. And I can see how childish they are in the way they are protecting me. It's time for me to let go (I'm 58), and I'm sure IFS will help me a lot. Thank you so much for this very interesting interview.

[@catherinewylie6959]

Such a great talk. I just caught up with an old friend who highly recommended I learn about this therapy. I always thought I was just one integrated ball of internal conflict and competing desires. Just listening to this, I realize there are definitely "parts" to this and I'm excited to begin my journey with the books I ordered today.

I am beginning this work myself and will hopefully find a guide, as well. So interesting. I realised I had been looking at my parts as things to overcome or control harshly, when they really want exactly what my true Self wants, which is to be seen and heard.

[@dollytenbrink]

So strange, i found this out about myself when i never heard of I.F.S. Because i felt so different when i was communicating in different manners. I just couldnt figure out why i felt different and like a child when i spoke to someone and why i felt mature and protective when i was writing. I cant be mature when i am talking to someone. So i was thinking; maybe i have a part of me that is still a child and the part that writes is the mature parent protecting the child. By accident i found out about dr richard schwartz. I was listening to a book from gabrielle bernstein and she started to explain something about different parts we create . It is answering all my questions about myself and it takes away all my doubts i had about it.

[@stephendale4057]

Wow. I love writing too. I feel that often I can only express myself authentically and thoroughly in writing.

[@Dawghome]

Mr James G Frieson PHD, helped me so much with not only his books but more importantly how he viewed D.I.D, so it helped me to view myself and parts with loving compassion, irrespective of how they present. This was the mantra i would repeat. "No matter what you have ever said, or whatever youve done, i will always love you! If they were aggresive to me as their knee jerk resction, with that loving statement, their guard would drop, i also discovered on one occasion that they presented this way, with their guard down, the stepped aside only to show me they were potected a group of personas new to my concious mind. I bought and read his book in 1995, he wasnt PHD then, that came later! And i still am met with prejudice by so-called mental health workers and im 65 now. The struggle is real! 😢

IFS is so tremendously enlightening

[@llyradcynth691]

Acknowledging the many parts in all of us is very healing. As Eckhart Tolle seems to refer to the negative parts as the pain body both mental and physical. Believe RS isn't a fan of ET. I am and appreciate what they both do. RS goes into the detail of these parts. Protectors and exiles. ET as I see it, sees this pain body as various negatives and isn't really interested in the details of them. They all hurt and need to be healed. We all heal differently, not to downplay the one or the other. Let's just get healed. Be thankful that there's so much differing info out there! Something is bound to hopefully strike a great big healing chord at some stage🙏

[@Peem_pom]

I felt judged by ETs voice in his books. Richard makes me feel whole.

But that is your role in this situation, so I was totally fine with it. Thank you so much.

[@myralhf]

I get it...our culture deals with it all wrong and hence perpetuates the initial problem of wrong doing. This concept of IFS/No bad parts is counter intuitive in how we as a culture are raised. Addiction would be a thing of the past if we bagged the blaming, shaming and created other which isolates, condemns, ostracized and deepens the shame of stickiness of addiction. IFS is a kinder, gentler model of being human, compassionate and kind...All have some kind of addiction...so give up the arrogance! This kind of dialogue, curiosity, questioning in this way works to heal individuals and communities. I believe this can be taken further...from the therapist room, to families, to communities, schools, society at large...this models can be used in so many places to create a new dialogue of interacting and healing for one another...

I imagine IFS might complement Bowen systems approaches (internal vs external systems).

Manfred Max Neef reached very similar conclusions but instead of the 8 C's he named 8 needs for the Self that seem pretty similar: Identity, Health, Security, Freedom, Esteem, Creativity, Entertainment, Participation. These can be named differently and each has their branches of needs but at end that list is what satisfies human life, the Self. So their destruction is what brings pain and their frustration is what brings suffering.

I would like dr Schwartz talk more about those fears of hearing voices in his clients. Some people have those kind of blocks when reaching for a given therapy method, I don't really hear specialists talk about it, and it feels very important. No every person goes for a therapy without fears of the outcome.

[@Me-nc8pp]

3:00 Start of conversation

[@charoleawood]

This talk reminds me of a song called "Forty Six & 2" by a band called Tool. The song itself is inspired by the works of Carl Jung. I have found in my own life that the digging into my shadow, with respect and help --- even though people weren't even aware they were helping --- has produced permanent transformations. I discovered that I was bisexual and trans --- aspects that had always produced shame, exile, rejection within myself and which I had discredited in others, fiercely. But those things which I feared about myself aren't bad, once I came to see them and allowed them to exist in a way that was healthy they were no longer scary, they came to be normal facts that I didn't need to push away and that I am at peace with.

[@woodsykris]

That song was transformational for me. Tool, in their entirety, are geniuses! Or would I say Tool is genius? (tricky grammar) Anyway, Tool is amazing!

Hey! I understand that becoming more aware of all the issues you’re carrying around can make you feel more hopeless about your situation. Have you ever received any kind of therapy for these things?

[@maxinejimenez7188]

If it did u are in very bad shape. Go to a therapist asap

[@adove5843]

The IFS lens would likely be that a part of you feels very alone, likely because within yourself you may have been coping with things in a way that has unintentionally kept you unconscious to many other parts that could also help, but right now you don't know they even exist and even if they do, how to connect with them. This is where a therapist can help: providing their physical and emotional presence in your world, creating space and safety to listen and explore, help you gently put down those "things" you are carrying and find new ways of relating to yourself and to people in your world. I speak from experience. Please go to an IFS therapist if you can. 🙏💛

[@debrac1688]

Which part turned on and listened to the interview? I tool a walk and did a voice recording of my dialog with my Protector. And I was surprised what m inner child told me... why it dissapears

[@saffronhammer7714]

What if you can’t recall any specific memories enough to reimagine this?

[@ash_leigh_robyn]

From learning about this therapy I've seen that sometimes a poor memory is actually a protective part. It won't allow you to remember things and wants to keep it fuzzy. You can work with this part once you're confident enough to maintain self-energy and reassure it that your system won't become overwhelmed if this protective part steps back. Same with parts that make you spaced out or foggy.

I think this gentleman is well meaning but he is complicating a very simple therapy and that is the difference between your wounded child which includes your emotions feelings, issues thoughts intents motives and memories and being able to process them in a very simple way by acknowledging them when they come into your presence and accepting them with love and kindness and letting them stay with you as long as they want and in that motivation and the love and acceptance that you place upon that particular woundedness whether it's feeling or an issue that all of that combined allows that feeling to transform into healing. Try it sometime it's not difficult and I think of it in terms of a me being the parent and the feeling Etc as the wounded inner child.

@@stevemiller8895 Yes, I cannot access my inner child, the part of me that holds my traumas. These two (very strong) parts prevent that. No, it's not healthy. But it was necessary during my very abusive childhood. IFS gives me tools to handle my protective parts. This way, they will be included in my system and allow my Self to get in touch with my inner child and heal my traumas. It was a big relief for me to finally understand how my protective parts work. IFS is the only therapy that 'clicks'. It fits my inner situation and I think it can help me reconnect with my Self. I want nothing better at 58.
