Exercise: Your Inner Critic/Your Parents

Take some time to write about what your parents wanted for you and from you. Who did they want you to be and why? How did they communicate this, and how did it affect you?

Explore the ways in which your inner critic or judge acts like your mother or father. How does the way you relate to yourself reflect how they related to you?

How to Disengage from the Inner Critic

The second step in learning how to disengage from your inner critic or judge is to observe yourself closely while you are experiencing an attack. This will not be an easy task. It will require you to stay present, paying particular attention to your body and your emotional reactions.

Pick a self-attack you have recently noticed or one that is very familiar to you (for example, telling yourself you are stupid when you make a mistake or judging yourself harshly in com- parison to someone else).
