Deep dives
The Power of Moving Toward
Moving toward one's inner parts, rather than against them, is crucial for personal healing. This approach involves engaging with parts that evoke negative feelings, such as guilt or shame, through compassion and understanding instead of judgment. By doing so, individuals can confront their burdens and release the pain associated with them, which is especially significant in areas such as addiction and trauma recovery. This principle is consistently reinforced across various therapeutic models, including Internal Family Systems (IFS), which emphasizes the importance of self-compassion in achieving emotional well-being.
