This was my second time through this book, this time with friends in a “self help book club”. The first time was with a therapist. Both times, this book has proven to be invaluable to my sanity and critical to my understanding of myself. I cant recommend this methodology enough! (If you’ve seen the movie Inside Out you’re already familiar with IFS!) I do think the book is structured weirdly, and would have swapped the placement of chapters 2 and 4. And I dont necessarily think someone should work through this without someone who is familiar with the methodology. I will likely work through it again in a couple years.
