Reflections on wholeness, self-energy, IFS and the living field
I'm writing this on my return from co-facilitating the first IFS in the Living Field immersive workshop with Natural Academy. And it's reminded me, again, of something I've always known. Wholeness was never about being fixed, complete, done.
On this three-day immersion, we met the land. Sat with it, walked it, let it get under our nails, our skin, and into our conversations, until place and each other and ourselves stopped being three separate things to arrive at and started being one thing we were already inside of, one ecosystem. I'm landing back now, energised, thoughtful, and profoundly grateful for the wonderful, creative, alchemical thing we created together. It's re-energised my thinking around IFS, self-energy and wholeness.

Why IFS works, as a neurodivergent therapist.
In this blog post, I’m going to delve into why I think IFS stands out as a model of therapy generally and why I think it fits neurodivergent minds so well. It is important to say that no therapy is a miracle cure, and no therapist is perfect, so while I say this is a great fit, if IFS isn’t working for you and you are neurodivergent, then you are not doing anything wrong.
