Ways of working

Self and the parts around it, each showing how it feels.

A room for parts work opens with names for parts, and feelings that show as a glow around each figure. For parts work in the approach you practice.

A LineAstra board in a violet night sky world with five pieces named Self, A protector, An exile, A manager and A firefighter, each with a colored glow

A session, step by step

  1. The whole board, with Self in the middle and four parts around it
    1

    Your client places Self and each part

    A figure or a shape for each, as near to Self or as far as it is for them.

  2. Self and two parts up close, each with a colored glow and its feeling in words
    2

    Each part shows a feeling

    Chosen from a short list, with how strong it is. It shows as a color around the figure.

  3. The same pieces seen from lower down

    Stand where a part stands

    Step into a part to see Self and the others from its place.

What this way of working sets up

A starting point. You can change any of it for one room, or for every new room in your practice.

  • Figures

    Women, men, children, a baby and angels in turned wood, and plain shapes for what isn't a person.

  • Names offered

    Self, A protector, An exile, A manager and A firefighter. Your client can type any other name.

  • Feelings

    A short list to choose from, each with a strength, shown on the figure for you both.

  • Your client can

    Add, move and turn figures, and see through a figure's eyes.

  • World

    The one you choose for this way of working. Every world works with it.
