C-O-O-P. You're listening to Life Kit from NPR.

Hey everybody, it's Mary L. And I've got NPR Health Correspondent, Allison Aubrey, with me.

Hey, Allison. Hey, Maryel, good to be here.

So you're back for another installment in the Stress Less series, right? We've touched on a lot of strategies

to deal with stress so far, but there's another layer to this.

That's right, you know, we've talked a lot about managing stressful situations, but some stress can be caused by the pain that is buried within us and one way to get to the

root of this is through a form of therapy that's known as parts work. So you

know Mary all a lot of times in life were torn when a big decision comes up like you know we'll say part of me thinks oh I should take that job but another part of me thinks

Oh I should back away does that feel familiar to you?

Yeah, I feel like this can come up a lot in dating, too.

It's like, part of me wants to be with this person,

but they're triggering another part of me,

and I feel bad around them sometimes.

I don't know why.

Right, yeah.

I think we all have some version of this and it's normal.

Well, okay, on this episode of Life Kit, Allison is going to walk us through. this and learning from them. Research shows that this can help us manage stress and get through tough decisions. This message comes from WISE, the app for doing things in other currencies.
