Chatter: The Workbook Kross Ethan (2026)

This workbook by psychologist Ethan Kross explores rumination, worry and self-criticism, or what he calls chatter: negative self-talk that can affect both professional and personal life. It builds on the ideas in his book Chatter and uses writing prompts, checklists, visual guides and thought exercises to help readers make their inner voice work for them rather than against them. The workbook presents internally focused tools for normalizing, reframing and redirecting thoughts, people tools for seeking support and advice, and environmental tools for creating order and benefiting from awe-inspiring experiences. It is intended for anyone who wants to break free from endless cycles of negative self-talk and learn to harness their inner voice.
