Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

The empowering new way to discover your multifaceted mind.

Do you long to break free from a stuck part of you - the inner critic, 'monkey mind', a bad habit or an addiction? What if there was a way to approach those aspects of you, to free you from the constant inner struggle and find true healing?

In this groundbreaking international bestseller, Dr Richard Schwartz reveals that we are each born with an 'internal family' of distinct parts within us. Some of our parts can become trapped in destructive patterns, but learning to relate to each of them with curiosity, respect and empathy can vastly expand our capacity to heal.

The Internal Family Systems (IFS) model will help you challenge the destructive behaviour of these parts, turn the ego, the inner critic and the saboteur into powerful allies, and allow you to return to a more whole and harmonious 'Self'.

Great material, Simply written.

I read this book on my Kindle, and once I finished the written version, I bought the audiobook on Audible so I could listen to it on the go. The material in this book is fantastic, and I'd recommend its wisdom to anyone willing to listen and take it to heart. It presents a very compassionate and empathetic approach to therapy that one can apply in their life right away. I really resonate with Internal Family Systems' notion of the "Self," which I personally choose to think of as the "Soul." IFS provides a structured framework for healing. At its core, IFS is non-judgmental and embraces the notion that there are no bad people; the only reason people do bad things is to avoid pain or suffering. And that, if you unburden someone from their pain or suffering, they will once more become a benevolent and good person.
