Don't Judge

6 posts in this topic

For anyone struggling I with social anxiety have I got news for you! I've been recovering from Psychosis for year now which brought about a tremendous social anxiety for me. But I've discovered a secret hidden between the lines of Leo's words. It's about judgements. My anxiety was induced simply by me judging others therefore stopping me from doing what I was judging of others. Does that make sense? If not watch Leo's video on how to stop judging yourself. So what's the secret? Listen closely, simple think "don't judge, don't judge..." over and over not just in social situations but alone as we. Saying this means that you are both not judging others and yourself. You will not have to continue it forever as your mind will grow more confident and a habit will form and you will just know not to judge and not have to think it. So there's my little tip on helping those struggling with social anxiety. It helped me that's for sure and if this didn't work for you I'm sorry and will keep and eye out for future high yield techniques. Try this for at least 2 minutes non stop then notice your confidence grow as you realize and trust that your not judging others or yourself. Peace :)

Hahah doesn't really work that way. You are judging yourself this way on your own judgments, by not judging you are actually judging, lol. Doing this will only waste your energy until you have become tired of it, after that the same old judging will continue again. The only way to stop judging is by bringing more awareness into your experience.

@vizual awareness is expanded by mindfulness, by saying "I am here, I am eating..."

I think the OP is suggesting reprogramming of the subconscious through affirmations/visualizations, which Leo talks about in other videos. The more self improvement material I absorb the more I realize there's not always one right answer. What helps correct a bad behavior pattern in a 58yr old white guy from Kansas may not help a 17yr old Philippino girl with the same problem. If visual finds the technique to be useful at this stage of his development in overcoming social anxiety why shoot him down?

Also @visual I think the correct way to do an affirmation/visualization is in the first person and in the present tense. So your phrase would become something more like "I am not a judgmental person". I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong about that.
