All of you is welcome - How Acceptance Ends Inner Battles

What if the parts of yourself you most want to get rid of are actually trying to help you? In this episode, Tam Callaghan explores parts therapy and why resisting any part of yourself, whether it's striving, jealousy, impatience, or anxiety, makes it louder, not quieter.  Drawing on her own experience with her striving part, and a conversation with a friend battling impatience, Tam makes a case for welcoming all parts of yourself rather than fighting them. It's the same principle as the previous episode on emotions, applied to the deeper, more persistent forces that drive how we behave.  She shares the experts and resources that have helped her most, and sets herself some homework alongside you.  A good companion episode to What You Resist Persists, but works as a standalone too.  Kim Holland - https://trulybe.au/ Usha Raman - https://usharaman.com.au/ Lachie Samuel - https://www.lachiesamuel.com/   Peter Crone - https://www.petercrone.com/   Mike Fields - https://jmikefields.com/   What is "Parts" Therapy? - https://integrativepsych.co/new-blog/what-is-parts-work-therapy-ifs#:~:text=Parts%20work%20is%20a%20type%20of%20therapy,versions%20of%20managers%20that%20act%20more%20impulsively   In this episode:  What parts therapy is and how it differs from working with emotions  Why rejecting a part of yourself just makes it fight harder  Tam's striving part and what it was actually trying to do  The jealousy example and why she couldn't be with it  Reframing impatience as a strength, not a flaw  Recommended experts including Usha Rahman, Peter Crone, Lockie Samuel and J Mike Fields  Homework: practice arriving as you are     Do Yourself a Favour is available on YouTube: https://linktr.ee/5050_podcast  Join the conversation!
