Judgment

There’s a difference between making a judgment and being judgemental. The former relies on intuition and the latter stems from a place of criticism. Judgment can be a way to maintain safety, but unhelpful and overly critical comments are usually a manifestation of our own insecurities. Not only that, but it can amplify those feelings of low self-esteem. As a culture, we've gotten so comfortable criticizing people. We pick apart celebrities’ fashion choices, we comment on a relative's weight gain, and our eyes widen when we see what’s inside a stranger’s shopping cart. Women especially are taught to connect through being judgmental of others and themselves. We’re working on ending that cycle for ourselves and the people that we surround ourselves with. On today’s episode, we unpack ways in which we’ve judged and been judged. We chat about our struggles with the judgment Tarot and understanding the energy of judgment. We also discuss practices and tools that have helped us work on becoming more compassionate and kind to ourselves and the people in our lives. Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, iHeartRadio, Stitcher, or on your favorite podcast platform. Topics Covered:Judgment and reverse judgment in TarotThe nuances between judgment and being judgementalHow our insecurities and self-doubt show up in our judgmentsWhat our judgemental triggers areThe roots of our harshly critical culture, especially as it relates to womenHow we’re working on being less judgementalResources Mentioned:Emily Ratajkowski's "Owning My Image" EssayWriter Sarah Hagi's response to Emily RatajkowskiMetta Meditation Follow Us:How to Be HumanHow to Be Human InstagramAnna's InstagramNina's InstagramBook a session with AnnaBook a session with Nina
