Let’s Fire Your Inner Critic

Have you ever been told that you are your own worst critic? Is your own self-criticism so pervasive in your mind that it’s hard to even distinguish it from the rest of your thoughts? With all you have heard about the negative impact of negative self-talk, why is it so hard to turn down the volume on that inner critic? Today Cinthia explores the concept of the observing self, which is actually important for people to develop as they grow up, as well as some ways that observing self can (often in an attempt at self-protection, believe it or not!) become a caustic inner critic. She also discusses what it might look like to give that critic a job-change and expect more and better things from it so that it becomes a compassionate witness instead of a tool for self-flagellation.
