My Hidden Chimp (parents book / The Silent Guides)
Book •
Steve Peters' companion materials to My Hidden Chimp—referred to during the conversation as The Silent Guides—are intended to help adults understand the deeper components of the Chimp model, particularly the automatic 'computer' and the formation of beliefs.
Peters explains the book was created alongside the children's edition to support parents in recognising and addressing unconscious beliefs (gremlins) that influence behaviour.
It offers techniques such as daily clearance and journaling to challenge and reprogram destructive beliefs.
The guide aims to be practical for caregivers and therapists, translating clinical ideas into everyday exercises.
By bridging child-focused explanations and adult psychological work, it supports family conversations about emotions and behavioural change.
