Ready to Kick Your Inner Critic to the Curb? Make Friends Instead!

inner critic friend

Last week I got an email from one of my clients who was hard hit by the news that her father, already quite fragile, was going into surgery. She told me that she found some relief from her fears about him from tapping (Emotional Freedom Technique).

I wrote her back and shared that I had also used technique with great success last year, and reminded me that I could share it with you, too. I think it’s a great way to make friends with your inner critic.

Are You Missing the Most Important Steps in Creating Your Vision Board?

I have a rash and I can’t quite figure out why. Do I have an infestation of the dreaded bed bugs currently humping their way across the Midwest? Or... (bear with me here), could it be the way that I envision my dreams? Is it an allergic reaction to the dust on my Vision Board? Or, perhaps, it’s my inner critic causing these hives?

Create Your Dream Space

Create Your Dream Space

Please welcome back Tara Sophia Mohr, coach, writer and creator of Wise Living, which offers women tools to find their right work and live more fulfilling, authentic, and peaceful lives. How do you own your right to dream?

We need space for dreaming. Spacious space. Lengths of time.

Dreams don’t fight for attention. They don’t yell over noise.

Sometimes a dream will interrupt and assert itself, but mostly dreams speak when invited.

Intuition vs. Self-talk

Intuition

Please welcome Kathryn Harwig to the Pink stage, brought to us by blogger Kim Wenci who also wrote a fabulous post on intuition (read "De-Mystifying Intuition" here!). So what is the difference between inutiion and self-talk? To which inner voice should be listening? How do you tell the difference between your inner critic and your gut? Read on to find out, and thanks for joining us Kathryn!

Recently someone asked me, “How do I know if the information I am getting is coming from my intuition or from my own self talk?” This is a very good question, and one that everyone who is serious about being intuitive needs to ask on occasion. It is a challenge to be intuitive about yourself and most of us find that it is far easier to give someone else a psychic reading than to give ourselves good intuitive advice.

I Am A Supremacist

Someone asked me today how my book tour was going, and I found myself answering, “I’m alive.” As soon as I said it, I realize how negative that sounds. When someone asks how we’re doing and we say “I’m alive,” it implies that we’re barely more than dead. But when I said it, I honestly meant that I feel super-duper alive -- in the full realm of human experience way. As in, I feel real. I feel raw. I don’t feel numb or flatlined, in any way.

What this means is that I’m good -- and bad. I’m giddy and grieving. I’m excited and disappointed and passionate and sexy and self-reflective and curious and frustrated and open. I feel vulnerable and uncomfortable. I feel called and appreciated. I am ALIVE. What more can we as humans ask for?

Be Honest About Your Dreams

Today we are on our way from Chicago to Boston, the second official city on the tour to promote What's Up Down There? Questions You'd Only Ask Your Gynecologist If She Was Your Best Friend. The trip is a little surreal -- radio shows here, signings there -- and a lot of love and laughter along the way. Lissa actually wrote today's post last week when she was in Los Angeles -- and what's more surreal than Hollywood? Enjoy!

An hour ago, a limo picked me up at LAX and my driver criss-crossed her way through the back streets of LA to avoid the stopped traffic on the 405. I was closing my eyes, listening to guided imagery on my Ipod, and when I opened my eyes, there it was, the infamous Hollywood sign, crooked white letters against a green hillside towering over the City of Angels. When I saw it, my heart skipped a beat because, unlike every other time I’ve been in Los Angeles, this time I’m here to do a screen test to be on a TV show.
