“You can learn to witness unpleasant thoughts and emotions with self-compassion, and even come to feel a certain amount of compassion for the inner critic (which often helps calm this eternal source of self-criticism).”

My two cents: Have compassion for our inner critic, interesting!
I have been trying to murder my inner critic, at least cut his vocal cords.

My human nature always wants to face, resist and fight off criticism, external or internal.
That has ended badly.
Now, I will adapt and build compassion for my inner critic.
New things are always awkward at first.
