She introduces the concept of parts as sensations, emotions, actions, and thoughts (SEAT), and uses the orchestra and weather metaphors to explain their functioning. She emphasizes that parts exist on a spectrum from self-led to extreme, and that the self is not better than the parts but rather the conductor of the inner orchestra. Melissa also discusses the qualities of the self, including compassion, connection, confidence, and patience. She encourages participants to consider their parts and how they interact with the self, and invites questions throughout the session. If you want to understand why IFS is one of the fastest-growing methods of personal growth in the world today, and how it can help you overcome food and sugar addiction as well as understand yourself on a much deeper level, this workshop is for you!

This Intro to Internal Family Systems (IFS) describes the relationship between the Self and parts (Managers, Firefighters, and Exiles). 

It covers how parts function, their protective roles, and techniques for engaging with them, focusing on addictions.
