Noticing, challenging or even befriending our inner critic demands awareness, courage and perseverence 💪
Making subtle shifts in how we interpret or reframe criticism can help us behave in alignment with our values and find joy 😊
Instead of allowing the inner "mean girl" to call the shots when she says the flowers 💐 you're painting look more like colourful cow paddies 🐄, and that you should hand the crayola back to the 5 year old 😅, you can politely decline. Thank "miss mean girl" for her concern. Inform her that you are fully aware aware of the risk of humiliation, etc., but are actually having FUN and choose to continue painting 🌈💩😊
Consider what it would it be like to embrace the process of making some messy art for no one other than yourself today? 🎨😉
Let me know how it feels to create.
