Befriending the Inner Critic
AÂ Woman centred course - open to all those who identify as a woman
Â
"I came to fix my critic. I learned to hold her. Everything shifted."
So You've tried to silence your inner critic. It didn't work.
You’ve tried to make it disappears and it keeps on appearing.
Who’s voice is it?Â
How did the voice get the job of the critic?
What if that harsh voice isn't your enemy—but a protector trying to keep you safe?
This is not positive thinking. This is trauma-informed neuroscience meeting the wisdom of Mindfulness
