I’m offering a Somatic Healing Gift Session (no charge) to explore your inner critic, a space to notice how your critic shows up and to explore relating to them differently.

What your intention may be about (but not limited to):

You don’t need to arrive with a perfectly formed intention, we can explore it together. But here are some examples:

• You feel like your inner critic runs the show, and you want to reclaim your own voice and agency.

• There’s something specific your inner critic keeps going after. For example, your body, your work, your worth, your expression, an aspect of your identity, and you want to understand this pattern in a more embodied way.

• You’ve done a lot of mindset or self-love work, but the harsh, critical voice is still there and you’re realising this isn’t something you can only think your way out of.

• You’d like to explore a recurring theme or story your inner critic returns to again and again, and sense into what’s underneath it.

• Your inner critic feels like a block to your creativity, your energy, or your capacity to move towards the things that matter to you.

• You notice your critic shows up strongly around being seen, speaking up, taking up space, sharing your work, or self expression.

• You feel stuck in self-judgement or shame, and want a space where those experiences can be met with curiosity rather than judgment.

• You notice you get beaten down every pre-menstrum and want to understand and support yourself differently through that phase.

• You want to deepen your relationship with yourself, your relationships, in community and your outer world, and sense that your inner critic creates a barrier to that.

• You’re curious about how your inner critic (shaped by personal and systemic conditioning) gets in the way of you hearing feedback, and you want to explore accountability that’s rooted in care rather than self punishment so that you can actually act on it.

My intention for offering this (for transparency):

• I believe that inner critic work is important in this moment for our individual and collective healing, and I want to offer support in deepening into this at a time when we are actively being sold fixing, extraction, and disconnection from our bodies.

• I want to learn more about your lived relationship with inner criticism, to inform and deepen my ongoing work and offerings in this area. This is a gift session and it’s also an exchange, a space for mutual learning and co-creation, always held with care and confidentiality. I’ll ask for your reflections and feedback, as part of this exchange, to help inform and deepen this offering for others.

• And I’d really like to connect with you, away from emails or social media, in real time.

What it’s not:

• We won’t reach the end of the session with me trying to sell you something. Of course there’s nothing wrong with getting paid for our work; if you’re interested in working together afterwards, we can arrange a separate conversation, but it won’t be suggested during this session by me.

• We won’t be ‘healing’ your relationship with your inner critic in 60 minutes, but we can meet your experience in a different, more embodied way together.

What you will receive:

• Aside from it being a 60 minute free somatic session, I don’t claim to know exactly what you will receive from it. Every session is tailored to your own unique experience and needs. But I do believe you may:

  • Learn something about your inner critic.

  • Experience how it is to be you in relation to your critic.

  • Gain some tools and insight to support your ongoing journey.

• I’ll send you a follow up email or voice note (your choice) with reflections and explorations to support your experience.

What you need to know:

• These sessions will be a weave of somatic exploration and menstruality mentoring (where appropriate). To find out more about my approach you can look at my Somatic Therapy Page .

• Whether we’ve never met, you’ve had a gift session before, or you’re working with me on a different intention, anyone who feels called is welcome to book. If you have any questions before booking, send me an email at hello@hayleydunne.com

• I’ll ask if you have any accessibility needs on booking and closed captions will be available on the call but do check in with me before with any questions about access needs by emailing hello@hayleydunne.com
