My inner-critic won't shut up, and it doesn't have to.
Once I stopped giving my inner-critic so much power, my life changed. Self-critical thoughts? Yup, still there. And I’m completely okay with it. I invite my critic to the conference table in my mind. I see my inner-critic’s value, it’s good intentions, and it’s not so great traits. Over-reaction, personalizing, fault-finding are all there too. But most importantly, I see it’s desire to protect me, even if it does so in unskillful ways.
