How to Unblend from a Part using Internal Family Systems

Close your eyes, take a few breaths, and just notice how you feel. It's that simple. And while doing so, ask yourself, "Who is noticing how I feel?" This is most likely your Self.

Welcome back to the channel! My name is Conor McMillen, and I was trained by the IFS Institute in 2014. I now work as a life coach, helping people learn how to use Internal Family Systems (IFS) on themselves for themselves. IFS has transformed my life, and I’m passionate about guiding others through this incredible healing process.

In today’s video, we’re diving into one of the fundamental concepts of IFS: unblending. Unblending is the process of recognizing when you're blended with a part and learning how to create space between your Self and that part. This practice is crucial for self-leadership, mindfulness, and emotional clarity.
