Dr. Ethan Kross: Managing Our Inner Voice
Manage episode 290819321 series 2849795
While we all have a voice in our head, we may not often stop to consider the implications - both positive and negative - of these ongoing conversations with ourselves. Psychologist and author of the book Chatter: The Voice in Our Head, Why it Matters & How to Harness It, Dr. Ethan Kross, joins us for an illuminating discussion around:
- the nature and function of our inner voice
- how and when this inner voice can become negative/dysfunctional and begin to impact our mood, social connections and performance (i.e., "chatter")
- how attention and focus is directed with respect to our inner voice
- a brief consideration of the nature and function of worry and rumination
- the reasons we gravitate towards worry and rumination, despite these strategies predicting negative outcomes for mood and functioning
- the evolutionary significance of, and utility of our proclivity for negative thoughts
- the paradoxical outcomes associated with "positive self-talk"
- the mechanism behind why thought suppression backfires
- the impact of social media on our inner voice and how to conceptualize social media constructively
- a review of some of Ethan's top strategies for managing "chatter"
- the role that green spaces can play in managing our inner voice
