Discover a compassionate new way to understand your inner world — and heal every part of who you are.
Are we made up of just one identity, or many? For generations, we’ve been taught to believe in a single sense of self and to feel shame or fear when conflicting inner thoughts and emotions arise. However, Dr. Richard Schwartz’s groundbreaking research challenges this traditional “mono-mind” view. He explains that we are all born with multiple inner parts that function together like an internal family — and that emotional well-being comes from learning to understand, respect, and care for each of these parts.
For decades, Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy has transformed the field of psychology. In No Bad Parts, readers discover why IFS has proven so effective in areas such as trauma recovery, addiction treatment, and depression, and how this compassionate approach to understanding consciousness can profoundly change our lives.
In this book, you’ll explore:
How honoring and communicating with your parts transforms mental wellness
Why outdated cultural and scientific beliefs about a single identity limit emotional healing
How inner critics, saboteurs, and protective voices can become powerful allies
Why emotional burdens form in response to early life experiences and cultural conditioning
How IFS reveals that there are truly no bad parts
