This community workshop starts with a brief 30 minute overview of Internal Family Systems. This includes its interconnectedness to Voice Dialogue, addiction theory, relationships, and other internally-based emotional wellness resiliency practices. 10 minutes will be set up to go over interactive guidelines, including self-care, boundaries, mindfulness, and more ways to share effectively and safely. The remaining hour will be IFS exercises, role-play (including as “parts”), discussion, and more educational principles. We may hold this outdoors weather permitting.
Facilitator Mike Meyer brings over 20 years of counseling experience and group facilitation to this new project. Internal Family Systems has been shown to be a very effective best practice in mental health counseling and emotional wellness. This will be a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere based in exploration and positive, non-pathologizing growth. Reviewing community resources and a closing circle will finish each meeting.
IFS is a transformative tool that conceives of every human being as a system of protective and wounded inner parts led by a core Self. We believe the mind is naturally multiple and that is a good thing. Just like members of a family, inner parts are forced from their valuable states into extreme roles within us. Self is in everyone. It can’t be damaged. It knows how to heal
