Transforming Inner Critic
Inner Critic: that inner voice that berates, finds fault, insists on perfection, "CAN’T do THAT..” , “just be nice”, “not good enough”.
It sows self-doubt, tries to stop you from doing anything new, judges you for breaking the "rules", stalks & hounds you. It basically hemorrhages your life energy! Like an inner Putin, the inner critic invades the sacred ground of your Soul, trying to claim that territory! BUT You can not only STOP this voice, SHUT it DOWN but TURN IT AROUND so it works FOR you..... LEARN HOW NOW! This process is transformative - turning that energy of the Prosecutory into your Defense Attorney. Once you learn to set boundaries with the inner critic, you also will do so with anyone else! Be at peace within yourself, no matter the circumstances or outcome This is deep soul work, an invitation to return to your Natural Good Self, even when imperfect. |
Step 1 > IdentifyThe inner critic living inside your head, hounding you can hemorrhage your life energy when it turns into a prosecutor. This inner prosecutor scolds, shames, tries to stop you from doing something new, finds fault, attacks your self worth. People often dull the pain by drinking alcohol, over-working, over-eating, endless TV. They have fallen prey and believe what is being said. Calling it by this name creates a little psychological distance so you are not totally merged with this critical voice.
How can you hear the whispers of your Soul/Higher Self above this din? |
Step 2 > InterruptSpeak directly to your inner prosecutor > "STOP! What you’re saying is hurtful, harmful and abusive! It is NOT helpful at all. I AM going to do this!"
This step requires constant monitoring of internal self-talk when it turns negative or when your lose energy, heart, motivation for follow through with a new adventure or project. You may have to ask your body "what's going on?" or take time for some real self-care. |
Step 3 > InterveneHere's the turn-around part, giving inner prosecutor another job saying "You can be with me and support me, have my back or stay the blank home! I’m giving you a new job. You have amazing critiquing ability. I want you to use them FOR me as my Defender. Help me assess people, situations, events that are best for me. Stand next to me as my Defender! Be my shield and sword ”
Being in harmony with oneself brings peace of mind, ability to thrive despite uncertainty, anchors to your safe place inside. |
