Episode 4: Spiritual Possession In Psychology?!
Manage episode 377962586 series 2577327
“Kill yourself.” “The world would be better off without you.” This is the inner voice of a client of mine. This voice has been existent within him for over a decade. I always assumed this was simply extreme depression. But what if it’s not? What if this voice originates from someone other than his true self? What is the brain is porous and can absorb energies from outside? What if spiritual possession (i.e., unattached burdens) isn’t just in the movies? This is the compelling topic discussed today with Bob Falconer, author & long-time IFS practitioner.
Topics Covered In This Spine-tingling Episode:
What is Internal Family Systems (IFS)?
What is an Unattached Burden (UB)?
How are UBs seen by other cultures around the world?
How do you differentiate between a real part of a person and an unattached burden?
How do you best respond to an unattached burden?
How do you send a UB on their merry way?
What makes us more vulnerable to Unattached Burdens?
How do you think of self at this point? To what extent do you agree with Dick Schwartz that self is both a particle and a wave (in quantum physics terms). In other words, does the self simultaneously extend beyond one’s self to others as well as is contained within the mind and body?
What are some of the positives that emerge from Unattached Burdens?
About Dr. John’s Guest:
Robert Falconer is an Internal Family Systems therapy practitioner, teacher, and writer. Bob has devoted himself full-time to IFS work since training in IFS with Richard Schwartz more than a decade ago, and assisting Dr, Schwartz in many trainings and workshops. During the earlier part of his career, before discovering IFS, Bob worked with survivors of major trauma. His focus now is on the study and treatment of the others within us, also known as unattached burdens in IFS, or UBs for short. His new book, The Others Within Us: Internal Family Systems, Porous Mind, and Spirit Possession, a work of more than 10 years of research, was published in April, 2023.
