Talk Your Poly Off

Walk The Walk With Your Self Talk


Listen Later

They say we are our own worst critic, they say we are our own worst judge, they're right. But what if we could actually flip the script on our inner dialogue and change the way we treat ourselves? How could our life change if we talked to ourselves like we talked to a loved one, a friend, or someone else in need of support? In this episode, Bella and Monsuta dig into the aspects of internal monologue and the effects of how we speak to ourselves in an attempt to understand how the spectrum from negative to positive self talk can affect not just ourselves but also our partners and how we can use self talk to improve various aspects of our life.

We referenced Wikipedia when describing Internal Monologue. You can find that page here.

This week, we recommend exploring the works of life coaches Brendon Burchard and Bella's "favorite people" Rachel and Dave Hollis.
We would like to give honorable mention to Mr. Brad Pitt for being a great influence with his words and actions.

Additional materials for your internal dialogue journey, here are some mindful 'road maps':
Cognitive Behavior Therapy
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
Neuro-linguistic Programming (link provided from Medical News Today as it discusses from a non-biased point of view and offers a logical and analytical view of NLP, we wanted to provide education with this link rather than a link from a NLP course advertiser).

You can read more about some of the fun stuff we brought up this week here:
The Pygmalion Effect
The Golem Effect
Self Fulfilling Prophecies
Even the horse- Clever Hans
