A practical evidence-backed tip to snap out of irrational thoughts and quiet the harsh judgy voice in your head.
Yes! That
pesky, internal critic that, tells us what we can’t do, what others won’t like, or what will make us uncomfortable.
with steps to follow below
Yes! That



Step #1: Be Aware
When you feel anxious or nervous & hear that voice do this...
-
Journal/Write down what you are thinking
verbatim and date, timestamp it
- What does the demon say?
- Write it as is, same words, same tone.
- Write in as much detail as you can.

Step #2: Prep
- BREATHE. Slow your breathing rate. Takes <60 secs

- Were there any wins? Did they compliment you? Did you laugh? Write them ALL down.

My key finding in comparing and reflecting has been this
99% of times, either the situation is blown out or I was just protecting myself from - uh, well, I don’t know what?
