Working with the Inner Critic

This October, we're getting curious about what happens when we meet self-judgement in the body.

The mind often believes self-criticism is helping. It thinks, "If I scare you enough, push you enough, point out what's wrong quickly enough, maybe you'll do better. Maybe you'll be okay."

But when we slow down and experience what that strategy actually does to the body - the fear, tension, panic, confusion, and pain - the mind gets new information.

It can begin to see: This isn't helping the way I thought it was. That direct experience creates the possibility for something different.

Let's experience the energy of self-criticism in the body with curiosity and acceptance so we can discover the wisdom underneath it.
