Internal Family Systems Part 4: The Language of the Parts

This talk was delivered by Rukmini Iyer, Director, Exult! Solutions (www.exult-solutions.com) at HELP Library, Mumbai in Dec 2015.
In this talk (Part 4 of the series), we aim to deep dive into the language of the parts. The premise of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model of therapy is that each of us are made up of parts that hold various roles within us and that each of these parts have a useful intention for us. It is possible that some of these parts may drive us towards dysfunctional choices and behaviours. However, once we understand and engage with the intention of the part, it is possible to rectify unresourceful behaviours. In this talk, the speaker explores the language that one can use while engaging with the parts, so as to make the internal dialogue effective and purposeful.

Internal Family Systems Part 3: Understanding the Inner Critic

This talk was delivered by Rukmini Iyer, Director, Exult! Solutions (www.exult-solutions.com) at HELP Library, Mumbai in Nov 2015.
The battle with our inner critic is one that a lot of human beings perennially go through. According to the Internal Family Systems (IFS) Model, the inner critic plays the role of a protector – it has the good intent of trying to safeguard us from touching an exiled part that stores unpleasant experiences/bad memories. The motive of the inner critic therefore is to criticise us and pull ourselves down so that we do not attempt to create a potentially unpleasant experience. However, inner critics do sabotage a lot of our aspirations and may limit our life experiences and hence need to be dealt with actively. The speaker delves into the matter of engaging with the inner critic, in this talk.
