The System of Selves

Deep characters require deep work, especially if your own life is the source material.

Drawing from Internal Family Systems (IFS) and other parts work approaches, Character Mapping's System of Selves helps you transform the way you understand characters and your Self.

Your passion is a portal,

not a product.

Has your work felt more like a calling or a curse?

Are you sensitively attuned and feeling burnt out?

Whether or not you have experience in IFS or parts work, there's something new for you here.

Those who consciously study characters as a way to know and liberate themselves will find in System of Selves workshops an opportunity to grow—emotionally, creatively, relationally, and spiritually.

Through reflective exercises, demonstrations, meditations, and movement, you'll gain concrete, reliable, and psychologically grounded tools and practices to build compelling characters and nurture emotional Self care.

Topics of Focus

Discover which characters you unconsciously gravitate toward—or deny and reject—and the impacts of this on your choices as a storyteller.

Build relationships with your Council of Inner Selves to support the creative process and remove the constraints that hinder it.

Deepen your comfort with the dynamic, complex nature of your inner selves, especially as you start to make better sense of inner conflicts and reactions.

Acquire ways to “unblend” from stressed parts that may take over, block, or distract—drawing from the qualities of Core Self energy.

Explore parts along a health continuum, from wounded to healed, and how they develop during and respond to important life transitions and events.

Create rich character composites based on the insights gained from personality typing systems, alongside your exploration of your inner selves.

Trace common core burdens to personal and ancestral origins, and learn how these burdens are expressed in the body, in beliefs, and through motivations and behaviors.

Learn how to enter into challenging characters safely, minimizing negative impact and maximizing personal growth and confidence.

Go deeper, safely.

Character Mapping’s System of Selves will guide you in applying IFS thoughtfully, mindfully, and wisely–deepening a passion for knowing and loving all the characters you are, and all those you will inhabit.
