Coming Home: Guided Meditations for Inner Connection
by Toni Herbine-Blank

A gentle and deep relaxation can occur by turning your attention within. Greater self-awareness and deeper connection toward all aspects of ourselves helps to cultivate inner calm and clarity. Toni Herbine-Blank shares short, guided inner inquiries from her trainings and retreats, which are designed to support unblending, affect regulation, and most importantly, to promote inner kindness and compassion.

3. IFIO Couple Therapy: Video Demo
by Toni Herbine-Blank
This video is an illustration of the importance of unblending protectors in couples therapy. The work is an example of a dynamic that speaks to a basic human dilemma; I want love and connection yet I am terrified of love and connection. Toni works skillfully helping each partner become aware of "parts" who in their attempt to protect the individual, get in the way of allowing this couple to have the relationship they desire.
