Anna’s Strategy for IFS:

1) Establish a yes/no system

2) Put yourself into alpha

3) Take Four Sheets of Paper and Label them: Primary Influencers, Secondary Influences, etc.

4) Using yes/no establish how many clusters are primary influencers, then secondary, etc.

5) When addressing a cluster ask how many pods are in the cluster.

6) Address the protectors (managers & firefighters) first and then the exile within each pod.

7) After the entire cluster has been addressed, have all those parts do ho’oponopono to each other.
