Episode notes
Addressing "No Self"
- When clients say there's no Self, question your need to convince them otherwise.
- Illustrate Self-energy through examples like curiosity or compassion, instead of direct labeling.
Illustrating Self
- Use relatable scenarios, like a crying child, to evoke clients' innate Self-energy.
- This helps them recognize their compassion, curiosity, and calmness, proving Self exists.
Self and Parts Coexistence
- Self-energy can coexist with parts like the mothering part; it's not an all-or-nothing concept.
- Noticing Self amidst critical parts helps clients recognize their inherent worth.
