Week One
Being Mindful of the Inner Voice
In week one we will use mindfulness techniques to explore the inner voice. You might be most familiar with the inner critic, but it’s also possible to have an InnerAlly, and voice that is kind and supportive. This first mindfulness step is critical in helping you become aware of how you are treating yourself in your own head. We will also explore some of the common misconceptions around having an InnerAlly.
02.
Week Two
Addressing the Inner Critic
In week two we will use the voice of our inner critic to begin to create some language for your InnerAlly. Often it’s not possible to completely eliminate the inner critic, but this process gives you the skills to be able to address it when it comes on loud. These tools will help you beef up you defenses against the inner critic and also address it in the moment.

Week Three
Identifying your Essential Emotions
Each InnerAlly is built around an essential emotion. Just like humans need water and food to grow physically, we also need to nurture our essential emotions to be able to thrive emotionally. In this week we will take the quiz and do a visualization to find out which essential emotions are specific for you, then give you the tools to create inner language to help you thrive.

Week Four
Meeting Life’s Challenges with an InnerAlly
Experiencing difficult emotions is a part of being human. What we do with these difficult feelings makes a great deal of difference in our quality of life. If they are accompanied with harsh or critical thoughts, then it can lead to depression, anxiety and addiction. In this final week we will learn how to use our InnerAlly to self-sooth and make these difficult emotions easier to bear.
I learned how to deal with my inner critic!
So helpful, thanks cynthia
Profound Visualization!
Life Changing.
I created the InnerAlly Process to help myself.
In 2012 I learned that being self-compassionate was the key to my happiness, but I really struggled with how to actually do it. The methods I teach in this course are what I developed for myself to make the practice of self compassion less painful and awkward and totally doable! I used it to pull myself out of depression and addiction, and I know that it will bring you life-changing results as well.
This Course Will Help You:
- Create kind and supportive inner language
- Establish a practice of self-compassion
- Change stubborn & harmful thought and behavior patterns
- Emerge with sense of wellbeing
