About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The empowering new way to discover your multifaceted mind.

Do you long to break free from a stuck part of you - the inner critic, 'monkey mind', a bad habit or an addiction? What if there was a way to approach those aspects of you, to free you from the constant inner struggle and find true healing?

In this groundbreaking international bestseller, Dr Richard Schwartz reveals that we are each born with an 'internal family' of distinct parts within us. Some of our parts can become trapped in destructive patterns, but learning to relate to each of them with curiosity, respect and empathy can vastly expand our capacity to heal.

The Internal Family Systems (IFS) model will help you challenge the destructive behaviour of these parts, turn the ego, the inner critic and the saboteur into powerful allies, and allow you to return to a more whole and harmonious 'Self'.

Critic reviews

'Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy...has been one of the great advances in trauma therapy. IFS is one of the cornerstones of effective and lasting trauma therapy.'

'In this highly readable volume, Dr. Richard Schwartz articulates and deftly illustrates his Internal Family Systems model, one of the most innovative, intuitive, comprehensive, and transformational therapies to have emerged in the present century.'

'This may be the most transformational book you'll ever read.'

'An enormous gift - transformative, compassionate, and wise. These simple and brilliant teachings will open your mind and free your spirit and your heart.'

'No Bad Parts is, I believe, Richard Schwartz's clearest, most comprehensive, and most inspiring manifesto. Anyone interested in IFS, indeed anyone interested in a happier, less conflicted life, should devour this life-changing, pioneering work.'

'In this well-written book, Richard Schwartz offers the basics of IFS, a series of exercises to help you learn to relate in an open and compassionate way to all - even your most dreaded and extreme - inner parts, and the fascinating spiritual implications of IFS. This approach will change everything about how you relate to yourself and to others!'

Most relevant

I really like the premise of the book (about the parts), makes sense to me. But I really wish the exercises weren't read by the author but by the other narrator instead. The author read parts irritated me, to the point I was unable to do the exercises.
