This episode is all about SELF! What in the world is self ? I hear you ask. One of the most significant components of working with your inner system is being able to identify, notice, and access self energy. Intrigued? Episode 4 jumps into all this and more. Not to mention our cute little discussions about Dr. Phil as a trauma response, reality TV star debates, and some teasers of what's to come in future episodes...

Here's a link to a diagram like the one Natalie was describing:

IFS Institute describes self as:
- Different level of entity than the parts -- often in the center of the "you" that the parts are talking to or that likes or dislikes, listens to, or shuts out various parts
- When differentiated, the Self is competent, secure, self-assured, relaxed, and able to listen and respond to feedback.
- The Self can and should lead the internal system.
- Various levels of experience of the Self:
- When completely differentiated from all parts (Self alone), people describe a feeling of being "centered."
- When the individual is "in Self" or when the Self is in the lead while interacting with others (day-to-day experience), the Self is experienced along with the non-extreme aspects of the parts.
- An empowering aspect of the model is that everyone has a Self.
