Take Control Of Your Inner Voice
Do you ever find yourself getting angry over a seemingly trivial matter, like someone cutting in front of you while driving? Do you find yourself anxiously worrying all the time? Do your thoughts, worries and fears constantly run through your mind? You may be suffering from an unhealthy inner voice. But there are things that you can do to change this. The first step is knowing what the problem is so that can address it and begin to work on fixing it.
The Problem:
Our inner voice controls how we think, feel, and act. It is an ongoing stream of thoughts and feelings that we follow, with only minimal input from us. This voice can be our own personal thoughts or it can be a part of our culture or society. The problem arises when this voice is unhealthy by telling us falsehoods or telling us to do things wrong. It can even cause people to do senseless things they wouldn't normally do out of fear. When the inner voice is acting up it causes a lot of unnecessary stress and anxiety in people's lives and they become trapped by it.
The Solution:
To fix your inner voice you first need to identify it. Once you know exactly what it is, you can begin to work on changing it. When working with your inner voice you don't want to seek a permanent cure or stop working on basic self-care, that would be counterproductive and leave the inner voice unchecked. Instead, your goal should be to slowly change the unhealthy thoughts and feelings of the inner voice so they are more positive and supportive. By doing this you can bring peace of mind back into your life while improving your quality of life and increasing your self-esteem as well as happiness.
The first step is to learn how the inner voice works and then identify its thoughts and feelings in order to begin mapping them out of your conscious mind. In order for your conscious mind to work correctly, it must first be clear on what is happening in the subconscious mind. So, you need to be able to identify exactly why you are having these thoughts and so that you can understand exactly how they control your actions.
Once you know what kind of thoughts and feelings have been identified you can begin changing them by figuring out what they are doing wrong. This is done by finding out the root cause of why a particular feeling or action is occurring. This may be a thought that is common for you, but is not beneficial, or a thought that is incorrect, but it might be acted on out of fear or blindly. This can be done by asking yourself what the true cause of the behavior is and once identified you can begin changing it.
By doing this work you are changing your inner voice and bringing awareness to your thoughts and feelings. By doing this you are beginning to build up healthy positive thoughts, no matter what they might happen to be, so that they don't control you any more. Remember, do not analyze these thoughts as wrong or unhealthy; as all people have them and even many groups have different ones for different populations. When you find out what the true reasons for the thoughts are, you can begin to work on changing them.
Presentation Of Solution:
It is important to be able to identify and change your inner voice through a process that works for you. So, please feel free to fit in what works best for you and makes sense with your life situation. With that being said there are some basic steps that most people take when working on their inner voice. The first step is to maintain a consistent daily schedule so that when it comes time to work they don't get sidetracked by other things. Next, the person must identify their actions and the thoughts behind them so they know exactly how they are harmful or helpful. This is done by breaking down the thoughts and feelings into the smallest components then identifying the reasons they are having these thoughts and feelings. Once they know why they have them, they start to work on changing them. By doing this you are bringing more positive thoughts into your life and addressing any negative problems that may exist, either with your inner voice or otherwise.
It may seem like an easy thing to do, but it is not as easy as it sounds. This can be a difficult step for many people because there is no clear like-for-like replacement for some of these thoughts and actions, so you must focus on getting the correct message across while still following the pattern of what your inner voice is used to doing. Sometimes that can have to be done by using a different thought pattern and linking it with the old one, so similar yet different in a way that is easier to understand. Once done this makes a new, healthier inner voice and gives you peace of mind.
The most important thing when working on your inner voice is to remain positive. It's easy to get frustrated or give up when you don't get it right the first or even second time. You must remember that the change will take time, so try not to rush things so that you can keep yourself in check. To effectively fix your inner voice you must realize there are other aspects of life that play into it as well and work on those as well from a logical perspective. If you don't, you will only be able to make minor steps to correcting your inner voice, which may not be enough for the desired results.

The inner voice can be a form of the normal process of thinking. The inner voice allows the individual to communicate with themselves on a subconscious level. Although it is not always available in all individuals, its presence can be used in great tactical advantage in certain situations. An inner voice can be considered as an extension of an "inner critic" and is used as a therapeutic tool by psychologists, life coaches and well known entrepreneurs.
It acts as a mediator between an independent sound mind and the physical body.
Typically, it can be identified in the early twenties and is always present, but varies in its presence.
It can often be considered with a "blueprint" you have of your life. It usually takes the form of critical thoughts or negative self-talk. Though it is so powerful in some individuals, it can also be manipulated by others to manipulate an individual's behavior in one way or another. Some common methods include insulting comments about appearance, character or abilities.
The inner voice has often been referred to as "the voice within" as it is more commonly thought of as a part of ourselves rather than something external.
Conclusion
It is important to note that the inner voice can be described as "the voice within" rather than just the voice of the individual speaking or thinking. The belief about inner voices or their origins is often heavily influenced by the person's personal experience, especially during childhood and adolescence.
The treatment of adults and children with anxiety problems has been shown to be effective when utilizing CBT techniques. Participants are taught specific techniques for changing negative thought processes and behaviors. The focus on these techniques allows patients to learn more effective ways of dealing with emotions and to improve their overall well-being.
