Open discussion on self compassion vs. self criticism

Open conversation on why many of us criticize ourselves, rather than use compassion and patience? How do negative thoughts affect us? What are the pros and cons of self compassion and self criticism, if any? Where do they stem from within ourselves? How can we shift to a place of more compassion towards ourselves? How will things change for ourselves if we do?

Take notes if you wish, otherwise just allow your most authentic self to join us.
