I must say that everyone who read my column or this blog has said they can relate to having this critical inner Judge. So I am delighted to look at this issue in more depth as I think it is something that is critical to our individual well-being.

I am delighted to be joined by Dr. Michael Baime who is the director of the Penn Program for Stress Management which teaches stress reduction by employing techniques of mindfulness meditation.

On today's chat, we will be including your story this right from the beginning, so I would love to chat with you about how this critical self Judge plays out in your life.
