Publisher's Summary

Whether we call it the inner critic, superego, or just plain nag, most of us have a "judge within" who's constantly on our case. A comprehensive guide to understanding how the inner critic works, this book offers practical, positive suggestions for breaking free of it. Using straightforward language and examples from everyday life, Byron Brown shows: Where the inner judge came from. How it operates. Why it trips us up. Why we believe we need it. How to develop awareness of it. How to disengage from it. The "soul qualities" we can develop to weaken its influence. Each chapter begins with an episode of the "Frank and Sue story", dramatically illustrating how the inner critic works; each chapter ends with a simple exercise designed to help the listener move along the path of self-discovery.

how amazing your life will be once you’ve read this book

I patiently and painfully persisted with this book until it was unbearable about chapter 6 because it was recommended to me. I’ve never heard so little in so many words. Up til chapter six at least, the book is about how amazing your life will be once you’ve read this book. The content amounts to little, the rendition I’m sorry to say is equally awful - though I’m sure I couldn’t present a book like this any better.

Get ready to realise your Judge is NOT your friend

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Any additional comments?

This is a great book for anyone who isn't into psychology mumbo jumbo.. puts things into perspective and practical ways to really get to know yourself, good, bad and ugly.
