220 | Internal Family Systems & Christianity, Part 1-OVERVIEW, With Dr. Ioana Popa

from Thriving in Christ | Professional Women, High Level Habits, Resilience, Burnout, Stress, Grief · host Dr. Ioana Popa | Psychiatrist Educator, Executive Coach, Speaker & Spiritual Care Formation

💡 WEEKLY TIPIf you've ever felt grounded and peaceful one day and wake up the next, feeling self-critical and frustrated, then you are not alone. There is a reason for this. This state of being internally fragmented makes us feel like we are taking two steps forward and one step back. And we mistakenly take any state of being as our identity. But our true identity comes from Christ. So the question, as many people have asked me, is this - How can I better understand myself and find healing while staying grounded in Christ? One of the most effective methodologies is Internal Family Systems, an evidence-based practice that helps people heal by accessing their various inner parts ( as in "a part of me wants this and a apart of me wants that"). And as a Christian, I have found that this is an amazing method because it assumes that at the core, we have something untouched or unharmed, our essence - which for us as Christians, is the Image of God! Since this is such a powerful methodology and I often get many questions regarding this topic, we will have a Mini Series covering the following... IFS & Christianity MINI SERIES coming up: 1. Introduction to IFS (Internal Family Systems)2. True Self3. Protective Parts - Managers4. Protective Parts - Firefighters5. Exiles - the vulnerable parts6. Polarities 7. What the Healing process looks like with IFS Through the IFS methodology, we can be released from our past bondages and discover our true identity in Christ.
