Anxious Critic
A meditation for when anxiety and self-criticism arrive together, each feeding the other, the worry sharpened by judgement, the judgement fuelled by worry. A practice in standing between the two.

Tender and reassuring, steady when things aren't, present and calm without ever overpromising.
