The Conversation Within

There is a voice in your head, and you did not choose most of what it says.

This book is about that voice: where its terms came from, why arguing with it does not work, and what does. It is not a book about positive thinking, and it does not ask you to replace criticism with affirmation, which most people cannot do and would not believe if they could.

What it offers instead is a change in the terms of the conversation. Noticing the voice as a voice rather than as a verdict. Recognizing whose it originally was. And building something more accurate to say back, which is different from something nicer, and more achievable.

Written by a research psychologist, with the science tempered rather than oversold.
