The Parts Party

This meditation is an invitation to hear from parts of your system that use shaming. (While also giving full permission to instead stay with parts that are not ready to get to know the shaming part/s, if that is what is needed.) A lovely opportunity to experience some IFS, led with much Self Energy by the wonderful Stephanie Mitchell.
