That feels like a really useful strategy. Thanks for describing it so well.

My inner critic tends to get pretty brutal often.

My father told me that you should never tear yourself down, there are plenty of other people to do that for you.

My advice is to listen to the parts of the critic that serve to improve your ability to heal the world (including yourself) and discard much of the rest.
