Resource Therapy focuses on different parts of ourselves, a form of parts work that builds self-awareness and supports inner healing. We could call it 'Parts Therapy'. Some parts protect us, some carry pain, and others help us function day to day. By understanding these internal experiences, we can relate to ourselves with more clarity and care. This becomes a valuable set of therapy tools for creating internal balance.

Hey, Guys, It's Ruben here. So resource therapy, Resource therapy. What is resource therapy? The tagline could be something like, You are not one self. You're a team. So the big idea with resource therapy is there's a part of me that wants to. Do this there's a part of me that wants to do that there's a part of me that is terrified We have these parts of us that show up. Somebody comes round. We feel elated. There's that part of me that wants to connect. Somebody else comes around. I feel cold and like I want to turn away. This is a part of me that's trying to protect me. We all have these parts and resource therapy basically works with this. It works with parts. In a session with a resource therapist. You will find that the resource therapist at your consent will speak to your parts directly, Getting to know them more and more. And this really helps us to come to know ourselves, Our parts, And recognize, Hey, They're all part of a team. So this was developed by Gordon Emerson. And there are other therapies that are very similar to resource therapy. But in terms of resource therapy, You could call it parts therapy, If that helps you understand it a little bit more. This is all about that. It's all about the repair that can be done. And a resource therapist. Will work with what is activating you. And the reason it activates you is to do with something that happened in the past before, Right? Different things that have happened in the past and a resource therapist will. At your consent. Help you go back and use imagery rescripting to get to that point where the rupture happened and actually create. With the power of visualization. A different outcome. And this is why it's so powerful, Because by doing that, People don't just the brain doesn't know the difference. Parts of the brain don't know the difference between visualization and a real life experience. So this is why resource therapy is so, So powerful. The core idea is that you are made up of these parts. Formed at different ages for different reasons. Everyone has them. They're completely normal. And even when these parts of us show up and we feel. Activated or or shut down or whatever. They're always trying to protect you from something. So basically the right part steps forward at the right time. When there has been trauma or pain. Some parts get stuck. And they use the metaphor in resource therapy. It's like they get frozen at the age where. . . They were wounded, So to speak. So in adult life, We're running these old programs, Right? Like a seven-year-old trying to chair a meeting sometimes. If there was a part of you when you were seven years old. That didn't get your needs met or something happened. Then in the present moment at times, Depending on the associations of what we pick up in the present, That part of us will step forward to shout or protect or want us to run or So there are so many different parts. And I hope this little introduction has been helpful for you to know a little bit more about resource therapy.
