🔼: [[🗺️ Roadmap]] ##### 2022-10-10.Mo Update Previous Update: [[🪡 2022-08-02.Tu Update]] Following Update: [[🪡 2023-01-15.Su Update]] ![[On Updates...]] Hello friends, it's been a while. A warm thanks for all the kind messages and comments and to those who signed up for the [Newsletter](https://integralguide.substack.com/) in the last couple of months. This will likely be the last update that I post to [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/theintegralguide/) and [Twitter](https://twitter.com/IntegralGuide), just to make life a bit simpler spend less time on social media. The [Newsletter](https://integralguide.substack.com/) will be the best way to stay up-to-date from now on. I was feeling pretty burned-out for a while and needed a break, but also in that time some potentially life-changing doors have started to crack open. It's too early to share much, but this may well mean something massive for the guide long-term. I'll share more if and when things become more concrete. ###### The IFS Online Circle This update integrates the second half of the [[📖 ✅ IFS Online Circle]]. It may not look like much from the list, but it amounts to about 10,000 words of notes taken from roughly 20 hours of video, plus a lot of restructuring and weaving-into what was already here in the guide. There is still an archive of many webinars available to view, and I might get to those, but the core material is here. I'm sure there are errors and loose ends, so I’ll be tracking some of those down and doing some polishing and harmonizing between now and the next update. But as of this one the Online Circle is considered fully integrated, effecting +200 notes. Like the last update, in the interest of having a list that is *somewhat* coherent, I've opted to not separate new and updated notes. - [[Internal Family Systems and the Body]] - [[🔑 Parts can use our minds and bodies to get or distract our attention]] - [[💡 Polarization]] - [[🔑 Polarized parts can use the body as a battleground]] - [[🧘 Two-Handed Polarization Exercise]] - [[❓ Should we talk to polarized parts together or separately]] - [[Medical Conditions and Diagnoses]] - [[💡 ADHD]] - [[🛡️ Intellectualizing]] - [[🔑 Our symptoms and illnesses are never our fault]] - [[🧘 Body Meditation]] - [[🦮 How to connect with Parts through Symptoms]] - [[💡 Self-Leadership]] - [[❓ Do the qualities of Self-energy always mean Self is present]] - [[🔑 Self-Leadership does not mean total self-reliance of independence]] - [[☀️ Courage]] - [[💡 The IFS Practitioner]] - [[💡 Transference]] - [[💡 Direct Access]] - [[🔑 Direct Access requires a therapist to be Self-led]] - [[🕯️ Titration]] - [[🔑 Self-Sabotage does not exist]] - [[🔑 Our parts influence other people]] - [[💡 Blending]] - [[As parts unblend, we become more embodied]] - [[💡 Guides]] - [[💡 Unattached Burdens]] - [[F1 — Find the Part]] - [[❓ What if I can't find a Part]] - [[F5 — BeFriend the Part]] - [[❓ What if a Part won't talk to me]] - [[🔑 Exiles are sequestered for their own safety or to protect the rest of the system]] - [[💡 Shame]] - [[💡 Integrate a Part]] - [[❓ My exile is unburdened.
