How to stop being your own worst critic

Описание: In this episode of Compassion in a T Shirt, I delve into the nature of our inner critic and the impact of self-criticism on our well-being. Learn how our inner critic, an evolved safety mechanism, can turn destructive when left unchecked. Discover the compassionate self, an inner voice that can transform the critic into a supportive guide. Through an understanding of compassion-focused therapy, we can shift from harsh judgment to constructive self-improvement, fostering greater confidence, resilience, and self-worth. Join me to explore the science and practice of compassion and self-compassion, and learn practical strategies for dealing with self-criticism.
