โ€˜When some people finally listen inside to what they really need, it has nothing to do with a different spouse, job, or body. Simply embracing the parts of them that had been stranded in the dark forests of their psyches lifts the cloud that had shrouded their souls.โ€™ ~ Dr Richard Schwartz ๐ŸŒž

In IFS therapy, the Soother is a part that protects a young one, which is feeling intense hurt, anxiety, loneliness or shame. So instead of judging and shaming this part, we speak to them with curiosity and respect. We earn their trust, so the Soother can relax and stand down โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉน
