I'd argue that often what's inside of us (at least in side of me) is a lot of verbal communication. Maybe you mean the verbal communication we do with others, yet I just wanted to say I think the language we use with ourselves is often the language we use with others. I've found that yes, working on how I talk to myself has helped how I talk to others. For example, I'm not an idiot when I make a mistake, I'm angry at a specific behavior I did. So I try to pay attention to how I speak to myself and how I speak to others, trying to learn from both. E.g., I just said "gosh, how stupid are you" to someone (or thought it), wait, how often do I say that to myself?
