Description

You will explore the psychological benefits of talking to yourself. In this lesson, you will master the First and Second Conditionals to discuss real and hypothetical outcomes of your inner voice. You'll learn to identify toxic patterns and use language to regulate your emotions.

Session Activities

1: Have you ever been caught talking to yourself in public? How did you react?

2: Do you have a "narrator" in your head, or do you think mostly in images and feelings?

3: If you had to describe the "tone" of your inner voice, would you say it’s a strict coach or a supportive friend?

1: If you could change one specific thing about the way you talk to yourself, how would it change your daily productivity or happiness?

2: Why does the video argue that talking to yourself is a normal sign of development rather than "insanity"?

3: Do you think the way we speak to ourselves is influenced more by our parents' voices or by our own unique personalities?

4: If everyone's 'inner voice' was suddenly broadcasted out loud for one hour, would the world be a better or worse place?

5: Can 'negative' self-talk ever be useful? For example, can being hard on yourself help you achieve your goals, or is it always harmful?
