IFS as a Spiritual Path with Dick Schwartz

MORE ABOUT THIS RECORDING

In this workshop, we explore the wider implications of the IFS journey with our parts.

 

  • How does IFS move from a healing modality where we are being with parts and healing the wounds from our past, to being part of a spiritual journey, where both healing and awakening are possible and how these processes overlap.
  • What practices, readings, or resources foster the process of IFS  being part of spiritual practice or path?​
  • Understanding spiritual bypassing from an IFS perspective?
  • What thoughts do you have about psychedelics and the spiritual on the IFS journey?
  • How have Dick's own ideas of spirituality shifted since using IFS for himself and with clients?
