Do you have a critical inner voice? I write about this topic (neuroscientists call this a critical Default Mode Network) and it’s a hot topic, because so many of us struggle with self-criticism, meanness and a tyrant in our heads that tells us we are terrible, worthless, unlovable.

https://empathybrain.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/TherapyChat_EP116_v2.mp3 In this episode from the Therapy Chat podcast, Sarah talks with Laura Reagan, LCSW-C about the neuroscience of language, and why it's important to talk kindly to ourselves.
Resonant attention and language changes the way we see ourselves. With our new eyes, we start to transform our experiences of shame, rage, terror and self-doubt into the sense that we are enough, just as we are.
