Ego-State Therapy

How to create inner harmony around
any subject in about 60 minutes

Have you ever wondered whether it’s ‘normal’ to hear different voices in your head? To experience an on-going internal dialogue between various facets of your personality?

Well, hearing different inner voices isn’t unusual and it isn’t pathological. We all do it most of the time, whether we’re aware of it or not. After all, our personality isn’t a unified field! It’s made up of numerous ‘ego-states’ – parts of the psyche that have different desires, memories, fears and ways of expressing themselves.

That’s why experiencing some inner conflict is also perfectly natural. Resolving them is how we grow and evolve. But what happens when we don’t reconcile our various points of view?

Here’s another way to ask this question…

Have you noticed that problems arise
in your life when conflicting ego-states
cannot agree on an outcome?

Here’s a practical example:

The ego-state that emphatically states one night, “Enough is enough. I’ll start looking for a new job tomorrow”, isn’t the same one that says in the morning, “Yes, my job is terribly stressful and I hate it, but I won’t quit. Anything is better than the unknown, that’s for sure.”

To which a third voice might add something hurtful, such as “You’re such a loser… Only an idiot would put up with these dreadful conditions.”

How about a fourth ego-state, the victim? This one is pretty universal and usually also has something to say. “Oh! poor me...

Why do I always attract people who take advantage of me?…”

Such a tug of war is painful – as all know. It leads to doubts, uncertainty, stagnation, paralysis, increasingly frequent self-deprecating comments and/or self-sabotage.

Whatever the area of life, we need to resolve our internal conflicts in order to achieve happiness and fulfilment. When ignored or poorly handled, such conflicts can lead to physical illness or depression.

This is where ego-state therapy
is extremely helpful.

Under the guidance of a skilled practitioner, the person in trouble can consciously access their conflicting ego-states and reach a harmonious resolution. In most cases, one session is enough and positive results are immediately noticeable.

You can now also learn how to facilitate such a resolution in yourself and in others.

If you’re a therapist and already work with clients, you can now add ego-state therapy to your range of practices. A fantastic addition for meditation teachers, psychologists, massage therapists, naturopaths, etc.

Depending on the course you choose to attend, you’ll receive a Certificate in Ego-State Therapy, or a Diploma that you can frame and display in your practice.

The Certificate Course is delivered over a single weekend (click here for dates & times), and the Diploma Course over three extra weekends – dates to be advised.

And yet you don’t need to be a therapist to benefit greatly from this knowledge. The course is open to anyone willing to learn because it can be applied in many different ways.

All areas of life can be helped by ego-state therapy

• Addictive behaviours, such as smoking, gambling, over-eating, etc.
  
  
• Relationships
  
  
• Self-worth & assertiveness
  
  
• Finances
  
  
• Health
  
  
• Work
  
  
• Parenting
  
  
• Body-image, etc.

If you’re a parent, imagine how useful
it could be to your children.

In just one weekend you could have at your fingertips a practical tool to help them work towards their potential at a much faster rate – without all the trials and errors most of us endure along the way! From then on, you’ll be exceptionally well equipped to guide them through the peaceful resolution of both small and big issues – to their satisfaction as well as yours.

It’s a fantastic way for children to let go of limiting beliefs and to grow painlessly. To change past conditioning for the better. And what better time to learn about self-empowerment than early in life!

Imagine exchanging sessions with other graduates

Many graduates practice on each other. A great way to expand your understanding of others and yourself, leading to more love and harmony all around. A great way to give and receive help whenever necessary, without being out of pocket!

Imagine that you could ‘talk’ with various parts
of your body and make healthy agreements

Yes, ego-state therapy is such a wonderfully effective tool that you can use it on yourself as well.

We’re referring here to the possibility of altering the course of an illness, or avoiding one. At INNER PEACE, we’re well aware that, from a strictly rational/medical perspective, it might sound impossible to influence cells’ behaviour… Yet in our experience it does work.

But this useful practice takes knowledge and skills – the knowledge and skills you can now learn first-hand in just one weekend. I’ll get to logistics in a minute.

First, let me explain some of the health benefits of ego-state therapy.

Imagine that one of your organs was giving you some grief. Chances are there’s a psychological reason behind it - a deeply unconscious ego-state that can increase your susceptibility to germs, activate your DNA in unwanted ways and even trigger ‘bad luck events’.

Would you like to be able to consciously change your situation by having a ‘conversation’ with that particular ego-state (and/or organ)? How about reaching a win/win agreement about your health and wellbeing? Reversing the progression of a disease?

Yes, as already mentioned, it’s entirely possible once you know how to go about it. In some cases you can do it yourself, in other cases you’ll benefit from an external facilitator.

This is why we’ve organised another weekend workshop with
Dr Gordon Emmerson, the foremost international authority on ego-state therapy.
