🔸 Night Vision

🔹 Parts:
P you must be doing something
P yellow eyed panther, hunter.

P tight temple protecting

E tiny baby trying to breathe. It’s just fine to be afraid

P everything is fine.

🎓 What I'd like to do differently:
IFS works in the dark? I assume. I should follow up in a few days. I went w shotgun approach, obviously could sound pushy/hunty, but when I get no response, I just want to open the menu. With hindsight, would do less. Part said what it needs to show without being pushed, but I didn’t know that at the time.

🔸 First is worst? Making it work for dad.
🎓 What I'd like to do differently:
Why are my prompts missing the mark? Why am I rushing the witnessing? Why am I getting blended? We speak every two months or so, I get lost in the context shifts, the windows to connect come and go, and then her Self steps in and makes me irrelevant. And of course I'm dealing with my own mad parts.
I took a shot steering towards exile, and when we found that connection, I wanted to push the gas before story-teller closed the window. Prompting you-turns wasn't so effective, I could have done that better, but instead tried being more direct to the exile. She had given us so much.
I need to find a way to interrupt story-tellers.

🔸 She can’t laugh like that.
🔹 Parts:
• P: anxiety, breathless
• P: laughing, shaky, bubbling excitement, a carnival fair ground. Nervous, is this too good to be true? Thinks im a toddler. Rather be Druid with cauldrons. Needs to be bigger than sad part underneath:
• E: little girl 3yo w fluffy small animal, a tribble, tangled hair, blonde curly. Hated having to sit on dad’s knee, prickly chin. Had to eat bacon. Had to play piano w dad. No control. Scared of dad, he’s trying to make the boys laugh by using her like a doll.
• P: wtf do you think you’re doing, you’re going to get her in trouble. She can’t laugh like that.
🎓 What I'd like to do differently:
I feel like I didn't do anything! I often don’t do the final steps like some of the pros (elaborating on unburdening or nailing down the revisit details). I figure you’re either gonna revisit or you’re not, unburdening will stick or it won't, and we can diagnose that when it comes up later.

🔸 Nothing in a galaxy.

🔹 Parts:
P: say something!

P: you’re just saying that because it’s recent, going on memories

P: fear, parts can’t speak w james, it can’t happen. Would be out of control. There's nothing in there

P: ladder/rope climber, hanging on, have to speak up w dad and brother, performing

E: nothing person. Could have connection w dad through affection but not through knowledge. Too young to know what I wanted. Craving his attention. Dad is all words.
🎓 What I'd like to do differently:
Get more comfortable with implicit direct access. Parts of me worry that to the listener, especially newbies, that might not sound like IFS. Maybe we need a disclaimer “warning: what you’re about to hear may not sound like IFS. James promises he’s still trying to do IFS."

🔸 Two face; he became someone she didn’t recognize. And you’re not a guy, how are you gonna give me safety?

🔹 Parts:
P just don’t look inside, It’s all a mess. Wants support, community

P if we do go there, where to start? Can of worms. I don’t know what to do w this.

P target: we have to remember and relive every detail. Because women have to have the case right, or else feel alone and crazy. Cuz

E alone and crazy. men are two faced. she wanted to trust dad, brother. Needed someone to recognize how wrong things were. Told to keep things secret, to not be upset about things. Utterly confused and heartbroken about brother. She lost her brother. Disconnected her from the world.
🎓 What I'd like to do differently:
Improv-ing more than usual. Regret 20% of it. Definitely asked a few yes-no questions that I wish I had left open-ended ("is she ready" v "how does she feel about"). Thanks for the space, Christine.

🔸 Christmas list. It’s good to be Selfish! vs Who does she think she is?
🎓 What I'd like to do differently:
Sick (and too many Freddie Mercury covers today), why I was avoiding going straight to exile early on.
