Listen "RAIN On The Inner Critic. A Guided Meditation"
Episode Synopsis
In this meditation I gently guide us through a RAIN practice designed to give us a set of tools to work with the painful emotions we might encounter through the pressure of our Inner Critic. With a practice such as this one, we may come to see that we do not need to indulge or cater to the inner critic. In that understanding we can free ourself from the often painful reactive pattern which is the Inner Critic. This practice was designed by Michelle McDonald and modified by Tara Brach.
