Why Criticism Can NEVER Hurt You

Описание: Have you ever been hurt by criticism?

Criticism may feel painful, but it can never actually upset you—only your thoughts can.

In this video, Dr. David Burns (author of Feeling Good and creator of TEAM CBT) and Dr. Carly Zankman (clinical psychologist and TEAM CBT Level 4 Advanced Trainer) explain why it’s not criticism itself that causes emotional pain, but the thoughts we attach to it.

We have to buy into a criticism to feel upset. But then, it's our own thoughts that are causing our pain. And here's something really weird, but true and reassuring. Those negative thoughts will almost NEVER be true. They're chock full of cognitive distortions!

Through examples and role-play, you’ll see:
Why defensiveness makes criticism more powerful
How agreeing with criticism can disarm it
How distorted thinking fuels hurt, anger, and shame
How to respond with confidence, self-respect and other-respect

If criticism has ever left you feeling anxious, angry, or discouraged, this video offers a radically different way to understand and respond to it.
