Understanding Your Self-Critical Thoughts

This is a powerful meditation for anyone interested in understanding the self-critical voice that lives within all of our minds. Through curiosity and understanding we shall cultivate some perspective around these persistent and re-occurring thoughts. Through this perspective we can reduce the grip these thoughts have over us and encourage liberation in our thinking.

I am the deep awareness of my thoughts has helped me to find some detachment from my thoughts.

I did this meditation on the first day of the new year and it feels like a powerful way to begin the year. My negative self talk is persistent but it isn’t loud. The questions you posed helped me to identify the actual negative thoughts that repeat and to allow them to coalesce into words that I could acknowledge and address. That was potent. This is a big deal to me.
Thank you very much 🙏 I am grateful.

Will come back to this meditation time and time again. Thank you

Thank you. Your comments about being my deep awareness that notices my thoughts was very helpful.

A beautiful meditation, which can also be used afterwards in daily life. Fleur provides you with a great tool that creates perspective and helps you move forward.

Just what I needed to understand my feelings of sadness today! Thank you!

So helpful and soothing! I’ll play this one often. Thank so so much, Fleur, for this and all your offerings 🙏🏻💚

i love the calm and peaceful nature of this meditation- i am going to create a sleep meditation playlist and start it with this. going to bed and letting go of the negative self talk- thank you 🙏

I love this meditation about befriending our inner critic, cultivating kind thoughts and remembering we are pure awareness. Thank you. 💚

Thank you for the awareness of my critical thoughts and how to release them.

1st time listening to this. I enjoyed it. I have a thought but finding it very hard to let go of it. Might have to listen to this one often to see if I can let the thought leave. And maybe I need to use other mental health services and less of the one I was using to let this thought go away

Fleur, Thank you for this beautiful meditation. It was very helpful for me 😊❤️🙏

Thank you 🙂 Lovely analogy of the mind as a garden 🌷

Beautiful words and message - thank you
Very soothing with the gentle background music

Thank you, extremely helpful!

Extremely helpful, thank you, Fleur. 🙏 ❤

This was incredibly soothing and powerful and a gentle reminder that I am not my thoughts. Sending much gratitude and love. 🙏❤️

This meditation really lightened the most pervasive inner critic in my mind. Thank you

very clear and thoughtful. My inner critic is strong and I loved the metaphor about clearing weeds from the garden of your mind, and planting new kinder seeds.

I really needed that one! I’m be been letting the negative critical self talk creep back in.

Thank you so much for this practice. Very helpful. I greatly appreciate your guidance!
