Resisting Truth
There are many spiritual truths that our minds resist.
Many spiritual teachings recognize this.
Many spiritual teachings encourage us to bring nonjudgemental awareness to this resistance, which can help the resistance dissolve with time.
IFS invites us to go deeper.
IFS invites us not just to be aware of the resistance, but to be aware of the specific parts of us who resist.
And IFS invites us not just to be aware of the parts who resist, but to offer them compassion, healing energy, and friendship.
