Do you have an Inner Critic? Is it sometimes very loud and bossy and need managing?Yep me too...Years ago, when I was stressed and exhausted being an over achiever, my sister took me to a Buddhist meditation night... Although I struggled with the meditation - I couldn't sit still! - I found it interesting and so I bought a book written by one of the Monks. I liked him because although he was a full robe wearing monk, he had a very down to earth real way about him and a quirky sense of humour which I liked.The book includes a stack of different personal stories and anecdotes that he uses as lessons for achieving - or at least pursuing happiness.I was reminded of one of those stories recently so wanted to share it to see if it gives you a useful approach to managing your own inner critic - and our outer one when we are triggered by others we come across.I hope you enjoy it and can try out this approach when you next catch your critic coming out to play!x ShandraThank you for listening!
