INSIGHTS THROUGH INTERNAL FAMILY SYSTEMS

THE JOURNEY TO SELF

at Taos Retreat at Mabel Dodge House


What is Internal Family Systems?

Transformative psychotherapy… and empowering paradigm.

Internal Family Systems is a powerfully transformative, evidence-based model of psychotherapy. We believe the mind is naturally multiple and that is a good thing.  Our inner parts contain valuable qualities and our core Self knows how to heal, allowing us to become integrated and whole. In IFS all parts are welcome.

IFS is a movement. A new, empowering paradigm for understanding and harmonizing the mind and, thereby, larger human systems. One that can help people heal and helps the world become a more compassionate place.

In Chinese medicine wood energy is what rules the proper functioning of our Liver, which has thousands of functions: the master of immunity & detoxification processes, it heals the blood&lymph, smooths the digestive forces… in fact, the Ancients had such respect for this organ they called it a verb, to live.

Addressing the liver meridian through mindful yin practice will also open us to patterns of growth and expansion. Release fear & frustration and find the freedom to soften, open, expand.
