Adapted from William Baldwin. Bob says "This meditation was developed as a way for people to protect themselves from what Baldwin called Negative Energies. I believe it’s more effective than creating a boundary or a wall. Protectors tend to attract what they fear the most, and walls tend to do that, too. If you practice this meditation often, it can become a tool to quickly protect you from the energies you’re dealing with, however the very best protection is not being afraid, and this meditation can help us with that." Bob Falconer has worked with, taught, and consulted on IFS for over 14 years. He's recently published his latest book: The Others Within Us: Internal Family Systems, Porous Mind, and Spiritual Possession - on unattached burdens and guides.

This meditation is an invitation to hear from parts of your system that use shaming. (While also giving full permission to instead stay with parts that are not ready to get to know the shaming part/s, if that is what is needed.) A lovely opportunity to experience some IFS, led with much Self Energy by the wonderful Stephanie Mitchell. Stephanie is offering a 'Shame Sanctuary' retreat in QLD Australia for those who are called to join (therapists and others welcome).

Ruth Culver is a Level 3 trained, & certified IFS practitioner based in Brighton UK where she works with adults and adolescents, as well as offering experiential workshops and trainings both in person and online. Her systemic interest in trauma, attachment and resilience led to the creation of "The Survive/Thrive Spiral” - an info-graphic which maps the inter-relatedness of IFS and Polyvagal Theory. Two other IFS integrations have also emerged through her work: "Drawing into Self” which is a method for doing IFS though guided intuitive drawing; and "IFS Constellations” : a method for doing IFS through the somatic group resonance process of constellations.  More about Ruth and her online courses and retreats: https://calmheart.co.uk/workshops IFS in Australia: https://mindbeyond.com.au IFS International: https://ifs-institute.com   More about Adriana: https://adriananaraicounselling.com.au/ More about Ella: https://www.facebook.com/evolutionofintimacy23  Other Resources mentioned: Windows to Our Children By Violet Oaklander Jenna Knapp's work in El Salvador: https://www.nuevaesperanzascholars.org Seth Porges: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdTI3V2rop0
