Summary

Check out our movie’s crowdfunding page and consider dropping some coin on our largest ambition YET: https://seedandspark.com/fund/papa-bear On a very special episode, writer/father/friend Soren Bowie sits in as host and invites Mike to explain why he was just out for a bit, and how his life was changed for the better by his experiences in a partial hospitalization program for people undergoing acute mental health challenges. We think this one could be extra-useful, so please give it a listen if you're on a healing journey, and because it starts with a kickass short story from Soren. The folder of useful documents and exercises referenced in the episode is available here, including Swaim's cast of internal characters (all Star Trek). https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1I2uTrCWc3on5rX60KReycLqFls-40JiK https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FD_rIriC7IhVmOiRVzoGjtGdTeCM2wZP/view The Jack Kornfield meditation mentioned is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZtgHd2gJLg Here are some other excellent meditations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8e_tAEM80k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kv6HkipQcfA https://lifearchitect.com/ifs-guided-meditations/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yQX1y7zMAg The book No Bad Parts by Richard Schwarz, considered the definitive text on Internal Family Systems/Parts Work, is available everywhere.
