IFS-Informed Authentic Relating (+Microdose)

Join Terry Baranski and Dani Joy Meitiv at GlowHouse in NW DC. This location is metro accessible, and street parking is available. Seating is a mixture of couches and floor space - yoga mats are available for those on the floor. Please give yourself extra time for DC-area commuting - we'd like to start the event promptly at 5:45.

Allergy Note: There is a cat in the house.

In this IFS-informed Authentic Relating workshop, we'll provide an experiential overview of Internal Family Systems (IFS), which is a revolutionary way of looking at the mind - as consisting of parts, rather than being a single thing - and getting to know ourselves in a deep/authentic way. We'll then split up into rotating pairs for various IFS-informed Authentic Relating exercises. These exercises will enable us to deeply relate to each other in a parts-aware way - by speaking to each other about, from, and for our various parts, and allowing our parts to be truly heard and witnessed by another.

For those who want to deepen their experience, a microdose (in tea form) will be offered at the beginning of the workshop. Dani will provide the container for mindful consumption of the medicine. Note: This is optional. Those who don't wish to partake are equally welcome to join us!

Terry Baranski is an Internal Family Systems practitioner who works 1-on-1, and in groups, with people all over the world to address their mental health challenges. IFS is an approach to therapy and self-growth which offers a unique perspective on the mind - one that opens the door to self-compassion and self-understanding rather than judgment and shame. It's a wonderful technique to help us get in touch with our true selves, see the big picture, and get to know our minds in a more intimate way.
