370: End Your Ruminating Thoughts With Parts Work

Published: June 8, 2023, 8 a.m.

\u201cI\u2019m such a horrible person.\u201d

\u201cI can\u2019t believe I did that\u2026I\u2019m so stupid.\u201d

\u201cI\u2019m not good enough.\u201d

Do these types of thoughts sound familiar? If so, you\u2019re not alone.

\xa0

As humans, we can be so mean to ourselves. We make a mistake and beat ourselves up for hours. We look in the mirror and are met with a barrage of negative self-talk. Sometimes these thoughts come at us relentlessly, like a flood.

\xa0

But these thoughts are not the truth about who we are. They come from an inner part or voice inside of us that is actually trying to keep us safe.\xa0

\xa0

And when we have the tools to work with these parts of self, we can stop these critical and ruminating thoughts in their tracks \u2013 and transform so many of the struggles that come with them, like depression, low self-worth and overwhelm.

\xa0

In this episode, I\u2019m sharing the story of a friend who came to me for help with critical thoughts that she couldn\u2019t shake. I walk you step-by-step through the parts work method I used with her and the process she went through that stopped those thoughts almost instantly.\xa0

\xa0

Then, I explain why parts work is so powerful, how it works in our unconscious mind and exactly how you can use it to work with your own critical parts \u2013 or any other part of yourself for that matter!

Listen to discover:

How to stop ruminating and negative self-talk in its tracks
The process I used with a friend to help her quiet her critical, ruminating thoughts
My own experience using parts work to transform a ruminating thought I was having
How to use parts work to transform any part of yourself
A step-by-step parts work process you can use anytime, anywhere

The amazing thing about parts work is that you don\u2019t have to spend years working with a part or even be in a coaching or therapy session to do this work. My friend\u2019s transformation happened during a casual conversation we had after work. And as I share in this episode, I use parts work when I\u2019m out for a walk or in the middle of the day. This is an empowering tool we ALL need in our toolbox!\xa0

\xa0

At the heart of parts work is giving ourselves what we needed but didn\u2019t get when we were young. As a healthy adult, you now get to be that strong, caring adult for your younger self \u2013 and when you do, you will be amazed at the deep inner healing that takes place.

\u201cWhen you are hearing these voices in your head, the ruminating thoughts, the beating up on self\u2026start asking yourself this question: \u2018Who is saying that?\u2019\u201d - Michelle Chalfant

\xa0

\u201cI really think you are going to be amazed at the different parts of yourself that you will start to discover.\u201d - Michelle Chalfant

\xa0

\u201cThis is how we really experience more of who we are, and this is the journey we are on in order to rediscover and live from our true self.\u201d - Michelle Chalfant
