Boundaries for Your Soul—How to Navigate Your Overwhelming Thoughts & Feelings

We all need a map to our soul.

A way to understand the emotions, the wounds, the areas that feel broken.

That's what I love about the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model of therapy-it provides a map that everybody can incorporate into their daily spiritual practice.

It's your guide to navigating overwhelming thoughts and feelings.

Today on the podcast, I'm walking you through this map, including the following:

1. A picture of wholeness

2. The cost of not tending your inner life

3. A map of the parts of your soul

4. The 3 types of parts we all have

5. How Jesus relates to each part

6. What it means to have healthy boundaries inside your soul
