Self: Held By The One Who Stayed (Not Alone Series)
by Age Rowse
In Internal Family Systems therapy, developed by Dr Richard Schwartz, there is a concept called the Self. A core of innate wisdom, calm and compassion that exists in every person without exception. It cannot be damaged. It cannot be lost. It can only be obscured. No matter what you have been through, no matter how many seasons of feeling lost or broken or unlike yourself, this centre has been present through all of it. Witnessing. Not judging. Faithful in a way that asks nothing of you. This meditation is a gentle invitation to sense that presence and remember that the most reliable source of connection you will ever find is already within you. It has been there the whole time. This is the seventh meditation in the Not Alone series. Not Alone is a series of short meditations to help you notice and feel into the ways you are already deeply connected.
