Soft pick. Targeted at straight couples but there was some interesting bits I got out of this as a single queer woman.
IFS is all about finding the parts of you that are hurt from previous experiences and the protector parts that defend them. It works to calm the protectors and soothe the hurt parts to facilitate better communication with your partner.
Recommended by my therapist, I think it was worth a read.

so-soInteresting, and would be great for people who don‘t normally read about psychology. I enjoyed it but didn‘t feel I really learned anything new.

I have had the worst couple of weeks ar work. My boss, the top guy in our company aside from the owners, quit without notice. I've been crazy busy as a result. To keep my energy (and mood) going, I've been listening to my dopamine playlist on repeat. Part of the track listing is pictured. Music is my therapy. 🤣

pickWe gave out copies of books our late friend loved at his memorial, and I picked this one. Introduced by Aldous Huxley and written by his wife, this unconventional 1963 self-help book contains a series of “recipes,” embodied psychological practices to aid in living life well. I trust, although the title recipe is a bit dated, these recipes can make a difference, but they‘re so involved and wacky that I would only use them in a crisis, to be honest!
I'm hoping to finish the last of my NB magazine stack for August's #MonthlyMagazineBlitz @julieclair
I'm off to get a coffee before settling down with these beauties.
