How To Work With Your Voice To Create More Joy In Your Life
"Society has taught us to mute our inner thoughts. And in doing so, we get used to not sharing our judgments, our thoughts, or our ideas. We were conditioned to please other people so we choose not to express ourselves to avoid any conflicts without realizing that it slowly robs us of our joy and our identity.
So how can we express ourselves freely without damaging our relationships?"

Make your body an important ally when singing, communicating, or public speaking. When nervous, we tend to transfer energy into our heads and out of ourselves. Simply being grounded and in touch with the body will help you speak eloquently with more clarity and sing more confidently.

"A ‘blocked voice’ lets us down when difficult conversations need to happen. We don't express ourselves, or we can’t articulate what’s made us upset or what just feels wrong.
Then we internalise those negative, stuck emotions. For many of us, these conversations then run inside our heads day after day.
The results of internalising stress are not limited to mental anxiety or depression. Indeed, when negative feelings are stuck inside us, it can be toxic to our physiology and health too.
Dr Gabor Maté, a world-renowned trauma expert, quotes a Longitudinal Study in the USA in which women in unhappy marriages were studied over ten years. One of the factors that they found is that women who didn't express their emotions in unhappy marriages were four times more likely to contract a dread disease."

"Mantra for Troubled Times" Holistica Magazine
Repeating mantras can be highly comforting, incredibly powerful and very soothing. There are many to choose from, some have the accelerated magic of having been chanted for thousands of years. Repeating words said to be spiritually charged is a common practice in the eight limbs of yoga and other Eastern philosophies. The practice is meant to bring us closer to our own divinity.
