The Self, in IFS, encompasses many human capacities. IFS theory describes the “8 C: compassion, caring, courage, curiosity connection creativity, courage and calm. There are many other capacities of the Self that can be explored: strength, presence, focus, flow, self-confidence and more.

Focusing on the uniqueness of these capacities gives us access to aspects of ourselves that can expand our lives by impacting our effectiveness and enriching our relational field.  Capacities can also be named and mobilized in doing IFS work. We can call on Strength, Presence or Focus during an IFS session to support a protector to have the courage to do the work necessary to support the healing process.

This on-going group uses Capacity exploration as a jumping off point personal inquiry. We employ guided meditation, dyads, triads and IFS demos to deepen our understanding. The group was started in 2022 when a group of women took my Basic, Exiles and Inner Critic classes and formed a deep bond. We have evolved into a loving supportive group of personal journeyers  doing IFS work and Capacity Development exercises.

The group meets the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month 10-12:00 PST. The monthly fee is $140 per month.
