How many different ways can you say and show 'I love you'?

Emotional triggers can be intense! Experiences of being in trouble, trapped or controlled can be stuck back in time- we experience similar feelings now as if we are that young child or teen without choice or agency.

This is a potent practice when you are becoming taken over and blended with a protective part of yourself in an argument. Protective parts don't care about the relationship- they just want to protect your young parts from pain. Once you have a little compassion- then you can speak up with loving assertiveness about your boundaries and your needs.

I love EMDR and have studied all the way to be a consultant in this modality. Knowing how powerful it is in healing trauma- it can be tempting to rush towards the pain and try to heal it, to bring relief to the person suffering. In the Internal Family Systems we have a saying 'Slow is Fast'- so we only go at the pace of the most frightened or concerned protector part.
The EMDR Coach is in the USA where this is especially relevant right now. But as she mentions- trauma informed therapy is crucial all the time and everywhere.

It sometimes seems like the children of abusers like the abuser more. Often that isn't the case. Often, they know if they don't favor the abuser, they will get harmed or shut out completely. Eventually, possibly as adults, they will begin to stand up to the abuser. This is heartbreaking for the safe parent.

This quote feels settling to me in these chaotic times. Drawn by Leonie Dawson - she's a business coach that creates awesome tools for mostly women business owners, and helped me a lot when I was setting up my private practice. Her work reminds me of an author Sark that was popular in the 90s and always made me feel calmer and supported.

Compassion is a huge part of working with our own parts in Internal Family Systems. When there is enough Self Energy present, sometimes we can also find compassion for those who have hurt us- this doesn't mean ever having to excuse or forgive behaviours.

It's easy to get flustered in the moment if you hear someone speak with hate or discrimination. Here are some great suggestions from on how to respond to transphobic comments and be a great ally.
