Internal War vs Internal Peace
In this episode, I will help you have greater clarity and understanding for the protectors parts of your psyche which can transform an internal war into internal peace.
When you go to war with yourself, you strengthen the protector parts of your psyche that you don’t like or that are causing you problems in your life. When the protector parts are more present and active, you have less access to your core self. This can cause all sorts of challenges including: stress, tension, mental health issues, barriers to connection and intimacy, feeling disconnected from your self, your body, others, and Source.
How would you feel if you could have greater clarity and compassion for your most challenging parts such as your anxious part, your inner critic, or your depressed part?
When you connect with your parts from your core resilient self which is open, curious and compassionate you will start to see that all your protector parts have a positive intention to help you or protect you. Now that’s different than how they go about it, so it’s important that you make that distinction. Protectors are trying to do their best and use what they know to try to help and often the way they go about trying to help or protect actually isn’t helpful and can even be destructive.
In this Episode I explore the following protector parts of your psyche: Depressed, Perfectionist, Anxious, Inner Critic, Intellectualizing, Dissociation, People Pleasing, Narcissistic, Avoidant, Guilt, Addict, Suicidal.
Once you start to understand the intentions behind your parts you can have greater self compassion and inner peace.
At the end of this episode I offer some things to reflect upon:
- Start to notice whether the voice in your head is coming from your core self or a protector part.
- Notice when you are going to war with yourself and you have protector parts that are in conflict with each other. Unhook from the internal tug of war and step back to access your core self.
- See if you can understand the intention of your protector parts to help or protect you and then communicate that understanding to the part see how it responds.
- As you do this check in to see if you are expereincing greater compassion for yourself and more internal peace.
Thanks for listening!
