Listen "Episode 7: Peace in the Fire: Using Ifs and Mindfulness in Daily Conflict"
Episode Synopsis
Conflict doesn’t just happen out there—it stirs something inside. In this newest episode of The Mindfulness Within Podcast, host Gilbert Romero-Mewharter explores how moments of tension—whether with a partner, a coworker, or within ourselves—activate protective parts of our internal system. Using the powerful blend of mindfulness and Internal Family Systems (IFS), Gilbert invites us to meet conflict not with judgment, but with curiosity, self-awareness, and healing intention.Through grounded reflection and practical examples, Gilbert reveals how manager and firefighter parts try to shield us from deeper emotional wounds during conflict. Whether it’s the inner critic reacting to a boss’s comment, or a caretaker trying to defuse relationship tension too quickly, these parts are not the enemy—they’re over-functioning in the absence of trust in the Self. Mindfulness helps us pause, recognize who’s speaking inside, and begin to lead with clarity and compassion.This episode also includes two guided mindfulness practices—one for use during conflict, and another for after conflict—to help you reconnect with your internal system and build trust with the parts that work so hard to protect you. With practice, conflict can become a doorway to deeper self-connection and healthier relationships.🧘 Listen now to The Mindfulness Within Podcast and begin building more peace—even in the fire of tension.
