7 Self-Kindness Practices For Calming the Inner Critic
December 2nd, 2023

“Why did you say such a stupid thing?” “You look ridiculous!” “You’re an embarrassment to yourself!” “Quit acting like a weakling.” “Face it, you’re a loser, and no one likes you.”
How many times have you heard a voice within you say horrible words like these?
How many times have you felt insulted, degraded, and left in a state of anxiety or depression as a result of this harsh inner voice? What you’re experiencing, my friend is something common to all of humanity – and it’s known as the voice of the Inner Critic.
I have this voice, our neighbors have this voice, and people on the other side of the globe have this voice.
Having a highly developed prefrontal cortex (aka., the “thinking mind”) and an ego that developed to keep us socially accepted and therefore safe means that it’s inevitable we have a critical voice inside that tries to keep us “in check.”
But for many of us, me included, this voice can become so loud, so dominant, and so overbearing that it becomes like an inner dictator, which saps our confidence and life force energy.
If you struggle with the Inner Critic who makes it hard to practice self-love, why not start with self-kindness? I’ll show you how to practice it in this article.
What is Self-Kindness?
Self-kindness is the art of being kind, gentle and understanding toward yourself and all your quirks. When you practice self-kindness, you’re essentially treating yourself the same way as you would a best friend. Self-kindness involves being self-respecting, tolerant, patient, and forgiving toward ourselves.
