Our Inner Voice
Sometimes our inner voice speaks to us with such cruelty and debilitating criticism. We are our own worst critic. We are pointed out to ourselves all the flaws, real and imagined, that no one else would ever notice. We are relentless in our critical and painful self talk. We speak to ourselves in ways we would never allow others to speak to us. When we become more aware of this, however, we have an opportunity. An opportunity to change the inner dialog. To be our own biggest fan instead of our own harshest judge.

Embracing flaws and imperfections
Like the long-standing Japanese tradition of Kintsugi, the repair of broken objects with powdered gold, silver, or platinum, no attempt at hiding our imperfections and flaws is actually an illumination of the spirit. An embrace of existing fully in the moment and an acceptance of life's ever-changing conditions.
