It’s that time again. We will be gathering on June 6th for our Parts Work Unconference. If you haven’t attended this event before and or don’t know what an unconference is, you can easily read a bit about it on our event page (and get a free ticket if you’re curious to join!). Everyone is invited (and yes you can bring your friends and share about the event!).
To whet your appetite for the event, we have noted a few of the pre-proposed sessions that will very likely happen on June 6th.
Pre-proposed sessions happening on June 6th
IFS & CG Jung (by Doris Füllgrabe):
Explore & share how parts show up in our dreams, and carrying energy from our cognitive functions or the archetypes.
Nurturing Young Parts (by IFS Ruthie & IFS Ruth)
In this Session IFS Ruth and IFS Ruthie will demo for 15 minutes IFS work with a Young Part and then invite others in the group to take a turn being the client. Towards the end there will be time for discussion and Q&A. Both Ruth Gaston and Ruth Baigent have backgrounds working with many modalities on their younger parts and have childhood histories of neglect.
Meeting the Marketing Parts (by Ben Carey Donaldson)
A look into communicating about your practice in a way that is both effective and aligned with your values.
Beyond Depression – Why We Get Stuck: Restoring the Capacity to Move Forward (by Ciro Coelho)
People do not become stuck, paralyzed, or depressed for lack of insight. They lack the internal conditions that allow forward movement. This workshop explores the systemic dynamics that interrupt agency and momentum, and introduces a structured, experiential process for restoring Self-led movement through IFS, Polyvagal Theory, and precise inner inquiry.
The Beautiful Mosaic: Aligning Your Many Inner Drives to Design Your Next Chapter (by Alex)
One part of you wants stability. Another wants freedom. A third wants meaning, and a fourth just wants to stop overthinking. Traditional planning fails because it assumes a single decision-maker sitting at the wheel. There isn’t one. We will explore practical ways to give permission to each part to dream and ideate
Please bear in mind this is just a subset of the sessions. Most people propose sessions at the start of the event itself (the event is co-created). If you have a topic you want to bring, that’s plenty. It can be an open discussion, a workshop, an idea for a workshop, a question. They often emerge totally improvised during the event, when we realize that “oh, now I want to share/exchange about […]”.
If you’re planning to propose a session or know you’ll be hosting one and want your community or peers to join, you are welcome to invite them to the event of course. Here is a flyer you can use to share about the event (thanks Emy for suggesting creating this to us!)
We hope to see you there!
