From Self Criticism to Self Compassion



In the first episode of the Self Esteem Series, I’m diving into one of the most effective tools to decrease the harsh judgement and self-criticism that make us feel unworthy and incapable of having the life we want and need. It’s called Self Compassion and it’s a simple yet powerful practice. Tune as I talk about…

  1. What self esteem is and what GBQ men must do to recover ours

  2. The reason high self esteem doesn’t always prevent self-criticism

  3. Why we criticize ourselves and how to slow down the “Threat” State that drives it

  4. The three components of self compassion practice

  5. Resistance to self compassion and what happens when there’s “backdraft”

  6. Three self compassion practices to get you started
