✨ "All parts are welcome." – Dick Schwartz
In the journey of healing, we often try to silence or exile the parts of ourselves that feel too angry, too anxious, too needy, or too ashamed. But what if those parts aren’t broken? What if they’re just trying to protect us in the only way they know how?
IFS teaches us that every part of us has a purpose—and when we meet them with compassion instead of judgment, we begin to heal from the inside out.
✨ Even the most disruptive parts are trying to protect us. Their methods may be extreme, but their intentions are rooted in survival.
🕰️ Many parts are frozen in time, stuck in past traumas where their roles were once necessary. They’re not “bad”—they’re burdened.
💡 When these parts begin to trust that it’s safe to step out of their roles, they reveal their true gifts. They become allies, offering wisdom, creativity, and strength to the system.
This is the beauty of parts work: it’s not about silencing or fixing—it’s about listening, understanding, and inviting transformation.
đź’¬ What part of you needs a little more compassion today?
