Many people propose that human personalities are composed of semi-inde-pendent subselves or "parts." They seem to be of three or four types: Inner children, their devoted Guardians, and "Regulars." The latter cause your thoughts, feelings, body reactions, and behavior when all other subselves feel safe and satisfied enough. Premise: every normal adult and child evolves a unique mix of Regular subselves like these: |
|
|
(True) Self / Leader / Coach / CEO Spiritual One / (Soul?) Nurturer/s - Loving Mom or Dad Adult ("Common sense") Socializer |
Responsible One Far-seer / Visioner Peaceful Warrior |
| The true Self (capital "S") is innately talented to organize, motivate, and lead all other subselves in calm and perilous times if the subselves allow that. Recovery from low-nurturance childhoods commonly requires intentionally persuading other distrustful subselves to follow your Self and other Regulars, and your Higher Power. // more detail / slides / exercise / guidebook / Q&A / close | |
