Go ahead and straighten up.
Push the crown of the head up towards the ceiling.
And now start settling in.
Now once again,
Take a really,
Really deep breath.
Now retain the breath below the navel.
And exhale.
And exhale.
And then one more time,
Super deep breath in.
Retain the breath.
Feeling the breath in every cell of the body.
Exhale.
Okay.
Now reflect what is it,
What is it that I want to work on today?
What is,
What's a recurrent issue that keeps coming up in my life?
A behavior,
A symptom,
A part.
What is it that keeps coming up for you?
You might look over the last week and that kind of what is like tripped you up.
I kind of will call it neurotic behavior,
Something that maybe you're a little bit aware of,
You're aware of.
It's like,
Oh crap,
This is not good,
But I keep doing this.
Okay,
So I'm assuming that you have your part.
And now I'm going to interview that part.
Okay.
So,
All right.
May I speak to this part?
So imagine that you're,
And then what you're going to do is you're going to speak,
You're going to,
If you can,
If you're in a room alone,
Actually speak out loud and speak back to me.
So,
Okay,
So and so part.
May I speak to you?
Do you have a name?
And now see if you can name the part.
Okay,
And so now tell me about what you do.
What is it,
Like how is it that you show up in,
In the greater self's life?
And that's what I'm going to call your larger self,
The greater self.
Okay,
So how do you show up in the greater self's life?
What behaviors?
So speak those out loud.
Okay.
When did you first come into the greater self's life?
Okay.
And also,
I want you to know that I know that you have a rhythm.
You have a logic unto your own that seemed from your perspective,
Your particular perspective,
Makes perfect sense.
I want you to know that I see that.
And so now and I want you to answer,
Just from the logic of this part.
Such and such part.
What is your basic reason for being here?
What is it that you're trying to accomplish for,
For the benefit of the greater self?
Help me understand that I really want to know.
Okay,
Now give voice to that.
Yep.
Now speak that out loud.
And now reiterate the part that is most salient.
Sure.
Okay.
And now,
In what kinds of situations do you tend to come out?
Help me understand that.
Give me,
Give me,
Give me certain circumstances that you tend to manifest and kind of take things over.
Okay.
Okay.
And also,
I want to reiterate this.
I know that you're there for a reason.
I know that you're trying to help out the greater self.
So reiterate to me,
How is it that you see the problem?
And then why is it that you present yourself in this way?
And again,
I only want to hear from this part.
We can maybe hear from other parts later.
Uh huh.
Okay.
And then one more time.
What,
What are your goals for the greater?
How are you trying to help out?
And again,
I know that you just kind of see it from your particular angle and I want to hear from just that particular angle on thing.
I really want to understand,
Help me understand.
Give voice.
Okay.
Now,
What would happen if you weren't around?
If you couldn't kind of take things over at certain junctures,
Maybe something bad would happen or maybe you believe that something bad would happen to the greater self.
Tell me about that.
What is a bad thing that would happen if you weren't around?
Okay.
Okay.
Right.
Okay.
So now in just a minute,
We're going to end this part of the meditation,
But now come back into your kind of healthy adult self,
Your primary part.
And then now kind of open up the mind,
Open up the heart.
And then now review the information that this part gave to us.
And now review it with a quality of complete openness and curiosity and actually from a posture of recognizing the coherence of what is being said by this part.
Okay,
Do that now.
Go over what was said and appreciate it.
Helpful to say this out loud.
Mm hmm.
Sure.
Okay,
Good.
Good.
