Accepting and maybe even embracing our imperfections...

We need to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections.

— John Lennon

My favourite therapist would agree wholeheartedly. He says we need to embrace all of who we are. He believes in the concept of an “Inner Family,” which is comprised of ego (protector/sense of self-esteem/self-importance), inner child (our potentially traumatized, sensitive, vulnerable, more emotional self), adult (the responsible face we show the world) and spirit (higher, more forgiving and loving, self). Inner family work is about giving a voice all the parts of ourselves, which can lead to much needed self-nurturing and healing of old wounds. Just sayin’ :) Hugs. XO
