EFT tapping to address your inner critic and negative self talk
“I could have done it better. I should have done that instead. I’m just so stupid when it comes to …” And so on.
We’ve all heard it. Yes, this is the sound of our inner critic that has the self-proclaimed duty to drive us towards perfection by means of constant quibbling.
This voice sounds especially strong when we are faced with a stressful situation. While it makes sense to have an inner compass that directs us to behave in the best way possible, too much of nit picking weakens our self-esteem. It makes us unsure of any action we take. It makes our behaviour stiff from fear of more criticism.
So why don’t we try EFT tapping to see if we can mellow down this rough inner critic so that it can become our guiding star instead?
EFT tapping set up
Karate chop
Even though my inner critic is constantly at work, belittling me, I want to let it know that I’ve had enough of this nagging! Yes, I should be doing this or that, but I can just BE? I want to be myself, instead of constantly “shoulding” on myself.
Even though it seems like my hypercritical mind is trying to keep me on the right track, I am now starting to question whether all this nit-picking is really helping me at all.
Even though I criticize myself because if I don’t, someone else will, what if I go easy on myself for a change? What if I could be my best friend with loving care and good advice?
Even though my mind is always on overdrive, being overcritical, I want to release this need to constantly slap negative labels on myself. I want to be more loving and caring towards myself and that seems like a good thing to do.

Also tap on any childhood memories that may arise to remind you of a hard-to-please parent or teacher or a critical someone who had influence over you. Come back and do this exercise whenever you feel like you’ve got into that hypercritical state again.
If you are dealing with a hypercritical person other than you, use this EFT script on dealing with critical people. Here’s another EFT script that will help you dispel your fear of displeasing others.
