The Others Within Us
Description
Sparked by an Internal Family Systems (IFS) client's lifelong affliction with an unattached burden-something in her mind that was not part of her-Bob Falconer began a decade-long study of the others within us and how they are treated worldwide. This study is important to all of us because what it reveals about the nature of mind holds a key to healing our underlying alienation and isolation.
The Others Within Us includes:
- case studies
- a detailed description of how to work with unattached burdens from an IFS perspective
- an extensive survey of how people have worked with the others within in times past and in many cultures around the world.
The journey Bob has taken goes to the farther reaches of human experience. It has revealed insights and understandings that can't help but cause the reader to expand their beliefs about the nature of mind and healing.
