Sounds True The Internal Family Systems Workbook: A Guide to Discover Your Self and Heal Your Parts

very helpful book

The font is very light and small, having difficulty reading vey unpleasant experience while reading the book… it is straining my eyes. Poor quality

The concept of a true 'Self' consisting of 8 qualities has a narcotic-like effect on people who undergo 'Parts' therapies. It feels good, but just like the idea that we all have 'multiple personalities', it is not based in reality. Internal Family Systems Therapy likely relies upon the products of human imagination. However, the 'Parts' that it discusses are not actually real. Unfortunately, a certain level of self-gaslighting is required in order to develop a belief that you are 'benefiting' from IFS. Not to be recommended for patients who are unstable or psychotic.

I love this workbook! The only IFS workbook written by Dick Schwartz, it is my number one recommendation for friends and clients interested in IFS and exploring the tremendous healing benefits of this model. The QR codes that allow access to Meditations and guidance recorded by Dick are a terrific resource. The variety of exercises allows the reader direct access to experiencing their Self energy and their parts. After 30 years as a Licensed Therapist, this model is by far my favorite way of working with myself and my clients. It is an embodied practice of self-compassion. And this workbook is a wonderful introduction to the practice!

Great book, absolutely love it 👍🏻

Très orienté sur un développement personnel en mode solo, cet ouvrage est mal charpenté et peu explicite en ce qui concerne une exposé formel et de niveau académique sur les sous-personnalités. Leur définition est aussi à l’emporte pièce et l’ensemble relève plus d’une psychologie popularisée selon moi ici à l’excès à tel point que cela devient simpliste et flou Mais pour un citoyen américain au fonds de l’Oklahoma, c’est peut-être ce qui est souhaité En tout cas la lecture est facile et dispose de bien des questionnaires d’auto analyse mais je cherchais quelque chose plus substantiel et abouti sur le plan théorique. Le contenu pour l’objectif que je m’étais fixé est inutilisable
