I liked some of the examples and psychological theories explained.
I think it is a book that could be read by all people! I just expected to have material, like what is the origin of that voice and why do some people not have it (not pathologically) and readers should be aware that there’s a notes section (like references) and it is about 30% of the book length so the actual material is not that long. The writing is very digestible, it is a scientific book without being flooded with all the weird jargon. I tried some of the techniques and I can say they helped me a bit but those are things that should be integrated into the life style so seeing actual results will surely take more time.
I am naturally an anxious person and I am always overthinking and I thought this book might help me. The last few months have been some of the strangest in my life and I had so much chatter in my brain to the degree it was depressing. The book wasn’t actually on my Radar until they told me about it and since I am a fan of psychology and science I got a copy ASAP and read it immediately. I am going to start the review by thanking my friend Aadi for the recommendation. It can also lead us to do things that sabotage us.” Fascinating, entertaining and full of original insights and tips, Chatter will change the conversations you have with yourself forever, and help you lead a happier, more productive life.“However it manifests itself, when the inner voice runs amok and chatter takes the mental microphone, our mind not only torments but paralyzes us. They are even sometimes in our bizarre rituals and lucky charms. Hidden in plain sight, they are in the words we use and the stories we tell ourselves, in the conversations we have with our loved ones and in the habits we undertake when tackling our goals. In this hugely anticipated book, that expert, the award-winning neuroscientist and psychologist Ethan Kross, reveals the sheer power of the inner voice, and shows us that we all possess a set of tools for harnessing it.
How does this source of wisdom turn into our biggest critic? And how can we take back control?These are the questions one of the world's leading experts on the conscious mind set out to answer twenty years ago, when he started on an audacious mission - to study the conversations we have with ourselves. But it can also be our biggest enemy, chewing over painful emotions and replaying embarrassments, hijacking our thoughts to run amok with 'chatter'. It helps us focus, achieve our goals and reflect on life's most joyful moments. Turn your inner voice from critic to coachAs humans, we all have a special ability that is unique to our species: an inner voice.
