Practicing Ahimsa - How to let Go of Judgment

Mindful Pause Podcast

Hi there ,

Have you ever found yourself in the judgment trap, feeling inadequate and unworthy?

Judgement isn’t just about criticizing others, but it also picks apart our flaws and magnifies our mistakes. It whispers cruel “shoulds” and “shouldn’ts,” leaving us feeling unworthy and unlovable.

Often the judgments we make on others are reflections of our own insecurities and judgements about ourselves.

The sad part about listening to judgement is that when we judge others, we close ourselves off from the beauty of their potential and the richness of their experiences.

We miss out on the opportunity to truly connect and understand one another.

But perhaps even more damaging is the judgment we inflict upon ourselves.

This week, your invitation is to consciously recognize the harmful voice of the Itty-Bitty-Shitty-Committee—the voice that tells us we’re not good enough, smart enough, or worthy enough, and instead of buying into its negative narrative, choose to practice Ahimsa.

Ahimsa is the Sanskrit terms that means nonviolence towards ourselves and others.

But Ahimsa is not just about refraining from physical harm but also about abstaining from harmful thoughts and beliefs.

When we embrace Ahimsa, we break free from the cycle of self-inflicted suffering and open ourselves up to a life of compassion and grace.

Each time you notice, pause and choose to not harm yourself through judgment that creates separation from others and ourselves, you move closer towards your True Self.
