(03:28) this is a meditation on disappointment and it is inspired by internal family systems work and parts work so I’ll talk you through this and of course create the right container for yourself to to begin to explore this meaning you’re going to have about I would say five or so minutes and quiet privacy socks on the right temperature the water you need all the things that are going to allow you to begin to open to this exploration okay so I want you to focus on an experience of disappointment in a man could be recent it could be remote and
(04:14) let’s have this experience be like a three out of 10 on the disappointment scale so not something hugely destabilizing but something significant enough that you feel it you feel it so when you have that experience of disappointment queued up inside of yourself identify where it is that you feel that disappointment in your body where is it living does it have a color does it have a shape how big is it and are there any Sensations associated with that place inside of you holding disappointment in a man can you turn towards this
(05:23) part and begin to ask it a few important questions ask this disappointed part to tell you a little bit about itself ask this disappointed part what it imagines might happen if it wasn’t keeping this disappointment alive and felt and ask this disappointed part who it is that it’s protecting what it is that it’s hoping will never happen again if this disappointed part shares with

(07:32) needs what does she need does she need a hug does she need her hair brush does she need a warm bath does she need to feel seen or heard in a way that she’s asking for and can you offer that to her now can you invite her to go somewhere safe that she loves maybe a beach or a forest or a garden and when you’re there can you ask her if there’s anything that she wants to let go of that she’s been carrying that isn’t hers to carry that she doesn’t want to carry anymore you might ask her where it lives
(08:35) on her body and you can ask if she wants to give it up to the wind the water to light or fire or if she wants to bury it in the Earth and then you can ask her where it is that she wants to stay now does she want to be with you inside of you somewhere she want to stay in that special safe place and then you can take a moment to thank these parts especially the part that had a very good [Music] reason for keeping that disappointment felt and Alive protecting that vulnerable
(09:42) part from pain or abandonment than these beautiful parts of yourself that are always here for you knowing that the part that has been holding the disappointment may be ready for a new job now that you are here for that more vulnerable Child part and what would that disappointment part want to do
