Summary

In this week's episode I am joined by my mom, Andrea! We are discussing a new healing modality that we have both been using to heal our inner children, called Internal Family Systems (IFS). Do you ever wonder why you can’t get the voices in your head to stop repeating the same things to you over and over? Us too! Using IFS we have been able to identify what those inner voices are trying to teach us and how to start speaking to our inner wounded being so we can finally heal them. This work is truly transformative and we are excited to share with y’all how it has helped us. We reference the book, No Bad Parts by Dr. Richard Schwartz.

Hey, this is Alexis Haines and welcome to Recovering from Reality,

0:11.6

where I illuminate the messy and magical path of coming home to yourself.

0:16.1

Whether you're on the road to recovery, seeking self-care techniques for surviving the

0:20.5

capitalist machine, or just need a moment to remember that you're not alone in your loneliness,

0:26.2

we're serving up the ultimate truth. Your challenges don't define you, how you deal with them does.

0:33.0

So are you ready to recover from reality?

0:38.9

And as a result of these life experiences that we have, these parts, you know, start to grow from that,

0:46.8

and oftentimes they're trying to communicate with you or protect you. You know, and here's a

0:57.7

perfect thing, my addiction was a protector part. Exactly, right? My addiction was a part of me

1:04.8

that just wanted to keep me safe. It wanted to numb you from experiencing more pain and more trauma,

1:12.1

because the pain and the trauma was never really visited in a way that brought unspoken

1:19.1

words to the surface. You didn't have conversations with those pains and those traumas,

1:24.2

and so they were in exile essentially. And so we have these parts of ourselves that are in exile.

1:31.0

They're the parts of us that were traumatized and felt unloved and unlovable and flawed

1:36.7

1:50.4

my mom Andrea Arlington. You guys love when she comes on the podcast and so do I, because we always

1:55.4

have really vulnerable, incredible conversations. And this week's episode does not disappoint.

2:02.6

We are talking about a new healing modality that we are incorporating in our lives that is

2:07.3

changing the game for us. We're talking about internal family systems. IFS is a powerfully

transformative evidence-based model of psychotherapy. We believe that the mind is naturally
