THE POWER OF YOUR VOICE

Did you know that you have the ability to make significant changes in your energy levels anytime, anywhere and with nothing more than the power of your own voice? You can calm or energize yourself, soothe pain, and release all types of unwanted stress - physical, mental and emotional. You can expand your vocal range and resonance, making both your speaking and singing voice more flexible and pleasing. The techniques are simple, and begin with toning, a process of sounding and freeing the voice to its full and natural range and resonance.

ON COMMUNICATING EFFECTIVELY

Communicating obviously is something we do on a daily basis. But, how good are we at it? We might feel quite successful in how we do at work getting along with others, and yet we can’t figure out why we don’t get along as well at home with our partners, children, etc. Or, it could be the other way around. The biggest presenting problem people come into couple counseling with is, “We can’t communicate.” In truth, couples communicate everyday, but often not effectively so they are left with alot of unresolved issues and therefore increased frustration and resentment towards each other. The key is for the couple, or for anyone, to learn how to successfully talk through to the point where problem resolution can be achieved. Adults and parents are the role models children have to learn from. An extremely valuable gift parents can give a child is to show them problems can be solved between 2 people in a mutually agreeable way.
