Vana & Bills IFS Book Club – Operation Tranquility: Phase One
With an initial glimpse into a workbook by Bonnie Wiess M.A., LCSW and Jay Earley Ph.D., we began our recent journey into Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Somatic IFS (SIFS) by delving into the latest workbooks from Richard Schwartz Ph.D. (IFS Founder) and now Susan McConnell (IFS Senior Lead Trainer & SIFS Founder/Developer). These foundational texts provide cutting-edge insights into self-leadership, healing, and the intricate dynamics of our internal parts.
This phase positions us right at the coalface—where theory meets direct experience, and intellectual understanding transforms into embodied wisdom. Operation Tranquility is not just about learning; it’s about cultivating inner harmony, expanding awareness, and embracing the profound potential of self-discovery. The journey begins here.
