The love of family is beautiful to behold and this family includes Mishka, the rabbit. A tender, loving story.
4,5/5 ⭐
Very interesting, but unfortunately I could only follow the theoretical side; my main goal was to apply the practical side, but I couldn't do the exercises at all. The book was a bit more spiritual and political than I expected, but all in an appropriate/sensible way.
I think IFS is potentially a therapy that can get to the roots of issues instead of working top-down/just managing symptoms like many common therapies.
My first audio book on audible is The Body Keeps Score.
I am liking this book a lot, the first chapter is about the after effects of the Vietnam War.
This book doesn't hold back.

I spent a long weekend in the woods and never touched my phone. It was just what I needed to recharge. 💚💚💚 #haikuhive #haikuaday

Love this song about being the family scapegoat & ending generational trauma.
“Please
Handle with ease
Ironing out a 50 year old crease
This shit is not a disease I am free
Healing what's broken 'fore I'm deceased
Fertilize new branches in this family tree”

Beneath the surface of the protective parts of trauma survivors there exists an undamaged Essence, a Self that is confident, curious, and calm...
A Self that has been sheltered from destruction by the various protectors that have emerged in their efforts to ensure survival.
Once those protectors trust that it is safe to separate, the Self will spontaneously emerge, and the parts can be enlisted in the healing process.
How awesome to have another Charmaine Wilkerson! I did get confused a few times about the timeline but overall, really enjoyed this. Wilkerson writes beautiful characters and moving stories.

I really enjoyed the way this story is told, something a little different with a lot of layers. It‘s about a major family tragedy and life afterwards. It‘s also historical fiction as we learn the story behind a piece of pottery that has been with a family for generations, from slave days to the present. I liked how everything was interwoven and how the reader gets different perspectives from various characters.
