Description
Got loud Inner Critics or other difficult Inner Parts?
We all have them, from mild to severe, and with a whole host of other Inner Bits running around inside, we are a veritable internal raucous party. Of the bunch, our Inner Critics often tend to be the loudest and most disruptive to our juiciest creativities and artistic lives.
No matter what your artistic, creative talents are, you will learn how to identify and work with your Inner Critics with some fun and creative (and very portable!) exercises, including character creation and internal/external dialoguing. You’ll learn how to talk directly to your Inner Bits to identify what they want, an invaluable skill to have as you journey through life alongside these (permanent!) Inner Parts of yourself.
You don’t have to be hijacked by your Wild Inner Bits; it is absolutely possible to get them on your side and even helping you out in all your awesome artistic life endeavors!
