Just listen to yourself breathing. The sound of your breathing in and out. Do it all of the time. You will find yourself going back to the internal dialog over and over. Don't get upset when this happens. Just go back to listening to your breathing. You may do it a hundred times a day. Don't get upset. Just go back to listening to your breathing.
There is no meaning to this sound, so it will not tie you to your Tonal as speaking does. And while you are doing this, you really cannot think of anything else.
If you cannot hear your breathing because of surrounding noise, no problem. Just pretend to hear it. You know exactly what it sounds like so just listen to the memory of that sound.
It is as simple as that.
After a while, if you don't try and force it, your subconscious will stop rebelling, because it is actually enjoying it. This is where it gets fun because you will just naturally want to do it all of the time. While driving and working etc.
Keep at it for about a month or two and you will be amazed at your ability to go into a heightened awareness in moments. Sometimes just by thinking you are going to begin stopping your internal dialog.
You will also be amazed at your ability to "read" people.
Approach it like the water that wears away the stones. The stone cannot stand up to the current that will not stop. _Bob May
