[Ep. 131] Transforming Traumas & Behaviors Through Self-Relating w/ Maureen Gallagher

In this episode, we welcome back one of Luis's teachers, Maureen Gallagher, a Licensed Psychologist (NY, NJ), Somatic Experiencing Faculty Member, and Inner Relationship Focusing TrainerMaureen and Luis dive deep into Inner Relationship Focusing (IRF), sharing how it has been an integral  part to their Somatic Experiencing practices.  They explore what it means to have a relationship with various parts of you, in the same way you would with another being. They also explain how IRF helps us connect the "I" we consciously identify with and the other needs or motivations we may have in our body, allowing us to begin to release feelings of shame or guilt and instead pivot to curiosity of these seemingly "out of control" habits and behaviors. Maureen leads us through a brief IRF practice as well as shares details about her IRF course offerings.For more information on Maureen's work, visit: https://embodyingpsychotherapy.com/For more information on Luis' work, visit: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/You can register for the Embodied Parenting webinar here: https://hln.thinkific.com/courses/embodied-parenting-webinarYou can also read more about, and register for, the 6 month program here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/parenting-group You can read more about, and register for, the workshop at Kripalu here: https://kripalu.org/experiences/food-therapy-how-eat-your-nervous-system----You can learn more on the website: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/You can follow Luis on Instagram @holistic.life.navigationQuestions?
