Our culture can put an intense amount of pressure on us to use the blank slate of the New Year to create a “new you.” Reflecting on the habits we tried to establish last year can trigger feelings of self-criticism and doubt. We’ve all had the experience of setting out in January, full of energy, eager to establish new habits in the New Year, only to watch ourselves lose steam and stamina as early as February.

Reflect on your connection to Self and the natural world as you read this blog by IFS-TC clinician Stephen Toriello.

Grief proceeds at its own pace. It is a visitor that can arrive in unexpected moments before leaving just as quickly. Sometimes it settles in and stays for a long while, taking the mind and heart along well-trodden paths to wander through different thoughts, memories, emotions, or sensations relating to the loss. But one thing is clear: everyone’s experience with grief is different.

Discover how grief affects parts as you read this blog by IFS-TC clinician Alicia Dabney.

Whether examining the microscopic layers of the universe or the vastness of the cosmos, it is easy to feel a range of positive emotions when witnessing the miracle of nature. In IFS therapy, we understand the peace, connectedness, compassion and harmony that we can easily feel when we are in natural settings, as qualities of human nature – the true Self.
