The more I listen to this the more I stand upright and keep my shoulders up, might help confidence down the line
That he’s got my back and he’s always going to help me
My coach is positive and counteracts the negative critics dispelling my anxiety and worry
Focusing on positivity and facts and outweigh the nerves and self criticism. My anxiety is purely a construct that I’ve created and I can just as easily overcome it
Inner coach was truly present today, leading the whole session
The inner coach seems more real than the inner critic. The critic is just a construct of my mind that I have made up about myself

Despite my inner critic seeming cartoonish compared to my inner coach, I have a much easier time listening to my inner critic and dismissing my inner coach.
Listen to the coach 
be positive
Cartoonish things often seem more real in your mind.
I had hard time visualizing my inner coach. Honestly not sure if I ever created an actual visual. It’s a lot easier to hear my inner critic than inner coach
He’s empowering and almost feels like a part of me

I learned that my inner coach has the potential to be as strong, if not stronger, than my inner critic. It felt natural to picture them together and I plan to use the confidence and encouragement from my inner coach to help silence my inner critic.
It helped to know that while I have one voice telling me I don’t deserve sex or to have fun, there is another there telling me that all the work I’ve done to get to the point of sex has been because of myself and now I get to reap the rewards I’ve earned.

I realised the inner coach is much more a part of myself than the inner critic. It’s much more powerful and can bulldoze the inner critic when given the chance to join the fight.

I noticed this too. The inner coach feels much more real, like it’s a part of who I am. The inner critic feels unatural, like it’s something outside of myself fabricated by my mind.

I’ve learned that my coach exists, and I deserve to have good sex, countering my critic who has told me sex is only so my partner can feel good, and I’m not worthy
My imagine my inner coach like a strong confident superhero. He is more powerful than the inner critic and wants me to have the best experience I possibly can.
