Chatter: The Workbook

How to Stop Overthinking and Calm the Voice in Your Head




This interactive workbook based on international bestseller Chatter offers tools for breaking free from endless cycles of negative self-talk, rumination and worry.

Rumination. Worry. Self-critique. We’ve all gotten stuck in loops of negative self-talk, or as acclaimed psychologist Dr Ethan Kross calls it, chatter. Whether it manifests as anxiety, imposter syndrome or other detriments to our mental health, chatter has the power to derail both our professional and personal lives. However, it is possible to change how our inner voice talks to us, making it work for us rather than against us.

In his internationally bestselling book, Chatter, Dr Kross describes how to utilise the hidden power of our inner voice. This workbook delves deeper, featuring writing prompts, checklists, visual guides, thought exercises and more, teaching you how to harness your chatter. You'll discover:

  • Internally focused tools: Activities to help you normalize, reframe, and redirect your thoughts.
  • People tools: Techniques for seeking support and advice from other people.
  • Environmental tools: Ideas for creating order in your environment and benefitting from awe-inspiring experiences.
Perfect for anyone who wants to break free from endless cycles of negative self-talk, this workbook will help you harness your inner voice and transcend the worst effects of chatter.
