This is the one tried and proven way to free yourself of being hurt by other's criticism. You can overcome criticism and critical people. 
Every time Sarah visited her parents, she left them feeling worthless and dejected. Was there nothing she could do right in her life? In their eyes, it seemed that everything she did or tried was a mistake. She got to the point where she didn't want to visit them again. But... for some strange reason she kept going back hoping for a miracle, i.e., that they would once give her credit for doing something right.
Then she happened upon this hypnosis for criticism program thinking, "why not, something has to make a difference." And with just one listening she wrote, "the insights I got from the program were invaluable. I'd been suffering needlessly for years at the hand of critical people. However, even though I felt armed with a new attitude when I visited my parents, I was still apprehensive as to whether my new perspective would work and sure enough just about the time I'd be in the midst of their criticism feeling like a failure, I took that deep breadth and suddenly saw the game that they've been playing with me and my sister all my life. It didn't change their criticisms, but instead of feeling like a failure, I left with a new found dignity. Now when I visit them, I'm amused by their game and can give it back to them."
Yes, criticism is a game and just Sarah learned how to play the game, this double sided cassette by the Stress Management Institute will help you play the game of criticism and win. For in actuality, those who criticize you are actually telling you more about themselves than they are about you.
