[[Parts become polarized to counter extremes]]. A [Part](Parts) on one side of the [[Polarization]] may not feel safe relaxing until the other does, because if one part relaxes without the other side, it can create an imbalance where the other side takes over. So working with both polarized parts simultaneously can be helpful. And by understanding and revealing their positive intent ([[Protectors have positive intent]]), the parts can see that they ultimately want the same thing, to protect the system and its parts. Otherwise, we can use [[IFS]] and follow the [[The IFS process]] and unburden the [[Exiles]] that the polarized [[Protectors]] are protecting or protecting our systems from.
