Publisher's summary

Sparked by an Internal Family Systems (IFS) client’s lifelong affliction with an unattached burden—something in her mind that was not part of her—Bob Falconer began a decade-long study of the others within us and how they are treated worldwide. This study is important to all of us because what it reveals about the nature of mind holds a key to healing our underlying alienation and isolation.

The Others Within Us includes:

  • case studies
  • a detailed description of how to work with unattached burdens from an IFS perspective
  • an extensive survey of how people have worked with the others within in times past and in many cultures around the world.

The journey Bob has taken goes to the farther reaches of human experience. It has revealed insights and understandings that can't help but cause listeners to expand their beliefs about the nature of mind and healing.

Super interesting and important topic

Like the exploration into other cultural and spiritual beliefs. The psyche and the universe is full of a lot of things we don’t know.

Important work - Insufferable narration

I learned about this book via an interview with the author on New Thinking Allowed. It is something of a textbook or study. I consider it valuable information that is relevant to my work and interest in both shamanic practice and voice dialog therapies. It’s always a gamble getting an Audible title not narrated by its author. Unfortunately the gamble does not pay off here. The narrator did not treat this as a study, but rather chose to dramatize both the expository writing and the quoted dialogue which comes off sounding sleazy and hyperbolic and only serves to undermine the author’s dedication to the work. This subject, if you do take it seriously, is as dramatic as it gets. It doesn’t require any outside help getting its validity across. Best to get the printed book in this case.

Narrator sounds patronizing, uncaring and smarmy about important subjects—RUINS IMPORTANT BOOK

There is no joy, sense of understanding, seriousness or even dramatic tone to the narrator’s voice—it is grating and full of almost snark about the subject matter and case studies. Hearing the narrator read about childhood sexual abuse and suicide with an incredulous and snarky tone is HIGHLY OFFENSIVE. I wish I could get a refund on this Audible book. The information presented is important and highly valuable for many people, and to have it presented in an uncaring, smug and condescending way is a great disservice to the author and the material.
