Reframing Your Inner Critic: Why Your Mind Tries to Help (Even When It Hurts)

Reframing Your Inner Critic: Why Your Mind Tries to Help (Even When It Hurts) Ever finish a project only to think “this is terrible”? Your inner critic isn’t trying to sabotage you, it’s trying to protect you. In this episode of The Stress Less Guru podcast, we explore how to work WITH your anxiety instead of against it. What You’ll Learn: • Why anxiety acts like an overprotective parent (and what to do about it) • How memory actually works, and why two people can remember the same event differently • The smoke alarm effect: understanding why your brain goes from 0 to 60 • A simple breathing technique to reset your nervous system (4-4-6 breath pattern) • How to give yourself the same compassion you’d give others Key Insights: Your brain’s primary job is survival, not peace. That inner voice warning you about presentations, creative projects, or upcoming meetings? It’s trying to keep you safe, but it often overreacts. Learn to recognize these patterns and respond with understanding rather than self-criticism. About The Stress Less Guru: Drawing from a background in psychology, world religions, and 10 years as a licensed massage therapist, I create content that bridges ancient wisdom with modern stress management. This podcast slows things down, helps you breathe deeper, and brings chill to life’s hectic pace.
