UNBLENDING Explained: Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Welcome to our comprehensive guide on Unblending in Internal Family Systems (IFS)! In this video, we delve into one of the key concepts in IFS therapy: Blending and its opposite, Unblending.
🔹 What is Blending?
Blending occurs when a part of our system merges with another part of the Self, making them indistinguishable. This can influence our thoughts, emotions, physical sensations, and even bodily functions.
🔹 What is Unblending?
Unblending is the process where parts of our system separate from the Self when it is safe and appropriate. This allows us to understand each part better and approach them with kindness and compassion.
🔹 Why Do We Practice Unblending in IFS?
Unblending helps us gain a clearer perspective on our internal parts, fostering a deeper understanding and healthier internal relationships.
🔹 The Process of Unblending:
Approach the part with the intention of getting to know it better.
Engage with the part using the 8 C's (Compassion, Creativity, Curiosity, Confidence, Courage, Calm, Connectedness, Clarity) and 5 P's (Presence, Patience, Perspective, Persistence, Playfulness). If your feelings toward the target part lack Self-energy, ask the part to give you space.
