We only spend so much time with our friends, while we talk to ourselves all the time, mostly in very unfriendly manner.
This self talk is the basis of Default Mode Network and you can start to notice it after a couple days of total silence.
Great friends are great, obviously, but we also need to internalise them.

It explains DMN and much more: https://www.coursera.org/learn/science-of-meditation https://www.coursera.org/learn/science-of-meditation
