{"product_id":"transforming-negative-selftalk-practical-effective-exercises","title":"Transforming Negative SelfTalk: Practical, Effective Exercises","description":"\u003cp\u003eA toolkit of practical strategies for managing intrusive, negative selftalk and how you respond to it. Hearing a judgmental or disapproving internal narrative is a very common mental health complaint, and not always a sign of schizophrenia or another serious diagnosis. Persistent inner chatter and rumination can lead to depression, anxiety, phobias, trauma, obsessivecompulsive thoughts, and more. In this unique collection of practical, takecharge strategies, the author reveals how selfcritical voices can actually be altered and used to your own advantage.Rather than changing the words themselves, Steve Andreass approach is to change how the words are spoken through specific, easytoimplement techniques, such as changing the location of the voice; its distance from you; its tempo, tone, or volume; and much more. Unlike most therapies that advocate talking back or ignoring it, this guide offers exercises for viewing our selftalk as a useful and productive indicator of our emotions, and shows us how to take control of them in a more meaningful way.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"W.
