Grasse – French Riviera – What to see on a travel visit. Plus: IFS daily checking in with my parts.
[Music] [Music] [Music] checking in with my parts. One, a part that creates alarm. It’s a child who wants to be comforted by a caring adult. Two, a part that is generally unhappy about my life. Its job is to prevent me from having my hopes squashed. It comes from when I was a teenager whose family would tell him not to get his hopes too high. solution. Think that as an adult nobody controls me. I’m free. Three. A part that thinks I can’t get myself to do anything because I feel I will suffer in the process of doing it. It’s because in my late teens doing new life activities meant suffering because resources were not made available to me like they should have been. Solution. I shift from suffering to watchfulness and remind myself that I have resources. Four. A part that wants a miracle to happen but will settle for reminding me to smile. It hollers at me. Are you smiling? Five. A part that manifests itself as thinking that I’m not a smart enough adult to succeed in jobs and business. It does not see a mix of life efforts and space for joy. It is as if trying to do anything new would mean a tremendous amount of suffering and no space for joy. And on top of that, I would fail. It’s because as a college student, I was denied pleasurable activities. There was too much low pay working to pay for my college, then studying and no money for play. as a solution. Now it wants me to show the calm energy of a grownup man. I must present myself in a calm way the way adult men act. It knows that every man can do some work. Six. A part that in adulthood prevents me from truly enjoying a pleasurable scene and interrupted. It originates when as a young person I was coldly and rudely rejected when I would approach caregivers for help or attention. Solution. Come instead with the adult me together. We’ll search for joy and find a way to get excited. Seven. A sad adult part that wishes it was an 8-year-old kid playing in the streets. Solution. See difficulties lived as moments of growth. They serve their purpose and they don’t need to be dragged on.
