In this insightful episode of the EZ Conversations Podcast, Furkhan is joined by Lizbeth De Sa, a certified Level 3 Internal Family Systems (IFS) practitioner from Multiple Mind. Together, they dive deep into the fascinating world of IFS, discussing the roles of different internal parts, such as exiles, managers, and firefighters, and their impact on mental health and well-being. Lizbeth shares her journey into IFS, its profound potential for healing, and offers a live demonstration of the therapeutic process. They also explore the spiritual dimensions of IFS and provide practical advice on integrating various modalities like meditation, journaling, and creative expression into daily life. Whether you're new to IFS or looking to deepen your understanding, this episode is a treasure trove of wisdom and practical tips for self-healing and personal growth.
