In this episode of Noble Mind, hosts Alex and Kate explain where our internalized messages of self-criticism come from, exploring how it can show up up as a running negative commentary in our heads or a general feeling of demoralization. They discuss why it’s useful to identify our patterns of self-criticism, describing how the inner critic can either push us to be perfect and hyper-productive or undermine our willingness to try new things. Listen in for insight on using parts work and mindful self-compassion to acknowledge the negative emotions of self-criticism, engage in the higher thinking necessary to soothe yourself, and choose a path forward.
