Healing from Childhood Trauma with IFS & Self-Compassion
My first Premium Audio Course for Insight Timer is Healing from Childhood Trauma with IFS & Self-Compassion. If you struggle with your mental health, and especially if you had a difficult childhood, I hope you find this course calming and insightful.
You will be guided on a healing journey with eight days of teaching and experiential exercises such as journalling, guided imagery, breathwork and meditation. The eight lessons range in length from 15-20 minutes, so are easy to fit into your busy day.
I am really proud of this course – it synthesises many of the things I am most passionate about into one short, powerful week of teaching. You will learn about child development, temperament, core developmental needs, schemas and the IFS model of internal parts, how to work with your Inner Critic, what we mean by childhood trauma and neglect – as well as how to heal from these painful experiences using powerful techniques drawn from schema therapy, compassion-focused therapy, mindful self-compassion and internal family systems.
The course is free if you become a Member Plus Supporter. This costs just $60 for 12 months of high-quality content like this on the Insight Timer app from me and thousands of other leading teachers.

Easing Worry & Anxiety With Internal Family Systems
On this six-day course, Easing Worry & Anxiety With Internal Family Systems, I will help you understand how to ease your worry and anxiety, especially if they make life a struggle, day to day. You will learn about the evolutionary and neurological basis of anxiety – why it is a threat-focused emotion that warns you if something is threatening, or dangerous, compelling you to act quickly to keep yourself safe. You will also learn that, although this is potentially life-saving in dangerous situations, it is not so helpful if your fight-flight-freeze response is being triggered in uncomfortable but non-life-threatening situations like getting a critical email from your boss.
On this course you will also learn about childhood trauma and why common, but highly painful experiences such as bullying, or growing up in a high-conflict home, can make you much more vulnerable to chronic anxiety in adulthood. Trauma is far more common than was previously thought, so it's crucial to understand why traumatic experiences in childhood can dysregulate your nervous system, leaving you in a constant state of hypervigilance and high emotional arousal.
You will also be introduced to internal family systems therapy, one of the fastest growing and most popular therapy models in the world right now. Through an IFS lens, your anxiety comes from a young, frightened part of you, who needs calming, soothing and healing. And your worry comes from a Worrier part, whose job it is to keep you and that little boy or girl inside safe. You will be guided in helping both of these parts, with an exploration of IFS and how to implement it in your daily life.
Each day combines theory and powerful experiential exercises including breathwork and guided imagery, drawn from IFS and other therapy models, which will help you feel calmer, safer and more at ease. Join a leading expert on childhood trauma, and experienced IFS therapist, for this insightful and transformative course. The six days of teaching will help you live a life that is calmer, happier and more fulfilling.
