The experience of laughter during a meta was liberating in itself!

As always, a great meditation and connection to my parts. The inner teen is a phenomenal untapped resource in IFS, because so much focus is placed on the inner child. But the inner teen is a child, too, and deserves acknowledgment. Thowing on some Backstreet Boys and Papa Roach today in her honor 💿

An awesome meditation! The teacher left plenty of time for inner dialogue, and it was wonderful to have the space needed to reveal joy and playfulness. I always finish my meditations with this teacher with a big smile on my face!

Awesome meditation which opened with an unexpected chuckle - it put a smile on my face and really set the mood for this practice! I love the concept of combining metta with IFS, and I'm definitely following this teacher for more great meditations!

Really great talk on HP. As an atheist, I struggle with the concept. Some great thoughts on that here. Thank you
