In *Chatter*, Ethan Kross delves into the silent conversations we have with ourselves, examining how these internal dialogues shape our lives, work, and relationships.
Kross, drawing from his own lab research and real-world case studies, explains how negative self-talk (referred to as 'chatter') can have detrimental effects on our health, mood, and social connections.
However, he also provides tools and strategies to manage and harness this inner voice positively.
These tools include techniques such as zooming out to gain perspective, using the second person to increase psychological distance, and leveraging the power of nature and placebos.
The book is a comprehensive guide on how to transform negative self-talk into a constructive and supportive inner voice.
