Judgment comes from the emotional body, but it commonly manifests through the mind body as thoughts of "good" or "bad," "right" or "wrong," and so on. It is important to be able to distinguish between an emotional judgment and the discrimination or discernment of the intellect. We make decisions all day long, but a judgment has an emotional charge or investment in the situation. Therefore, we are not talking about a simple disagreement or a difference of opinion (though these thoughts may have a judgment at their basis), but rather an emotionally triggered reaction that produces stress in the physical body and constricts the mind body.
