@sittingwithlauren: Two parts of us can want completely different things. One wants to set boundaries. Another is scared about what will happen. Both can have a really good reasons. It isn't always about deciding which part is right. Sometimes it's about slowing down enough to understand what each part knows and why it matters. You don't have to pick a side to begin listening to yourself. If the you’re curious about this approach, I’d invite you to explore my somatic parts work courses: For clients: Befriending What Feels Stuck - It's a gentle introduction to understanding your protective patterns through parts work, the body, and nervous system — with teachings and experiential practices to help you actually explore this in your own system. For clinicians: Moving From Insight to Integration - A practical, embodied approach to bringing somatic awareness, parts work, nervous-system understanding, and the therapeutic relationship together.
