Making Peace with Your Inner Critic

When the inner critic lays gently down by our side, we live in peace together.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we're liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. ~Marianne Williamson

Are you weary from a voice inside your head telling you you’re bad, wrong, or not good enough?

Do you long to make your way through your world with ease and grace – embodying your “powerful beyond measure” self?

Come join us for this workshop gathering to:

• Connect with and soothe your inner critic’s voice.
• Identify the deeper need of the critic.
• Enjoy community of others who, too, want inner peace.
• Take advantage of opportunities to heal your own personal situations.
• Feel the holding of a safe and nurturing space that supports opening your heart.
