0:10 your voice is a magnificent gift it has
0:15 the power to change you and your life
0:19 you use your voice all the time and
0:24 never give it a second thought in my
0:26 word as a voice vote people would say to
0:30 me Oh Cynthia the voice a powerful voice
0:35 is a good thing to have a powerful voice
0:39 is more than a good thing to have and
0:46 voice is also beyond important voice is
0:51 powerful there is no other sound that's
0:54 more powerful than the human voice it
0:59 can start or stop a word make or break a
1:04 bond motivate or demoralize people it
1:08 stirs your thought and evokes your
1:13 emotion when you hear a familiar sound
1:16 of him from inner voice it may get you
1:21 into all kinds of reactions when I hear
1:24 a voice that sounded like my critical
1:29 dad it gets me all tensed up well when I
1:32 hear a voice that sounded like my mom I
1:39 hear more I feel more relaxed it is not
1:42 only the words we say through our voice
1:47 but also the pure sounds we make the
1:53 laughter of joy the cry of despair the
1:58 sigh of relief and the groan of pain
2:03 they all profoundly affect us and people
2:10 what most people know about voice is
2:13 only the tip of the iceberg
2:18 I hear people often say to me oh the
2:22 voice the tone of the voice is important
2:26 well when I talk about voice work it
2:28 goes way more than just tone of the
2:33 voice or tonality tone of the voice is
2:36 the kindergarten knowledge in voice work
2:39 when we work on your voice we work on
2:42 for example the placement of your voice
2:44 which is where you're projecting your
2:48 voice from and you will find out more in
2:51 this talk we also talked about the
2:56 alignment inside of you and the
3:01 congruence inside and outside of you
3:05 there is so much more you can also hear
3:12 in a person's voice for example we can
3:16 hear in your voice who you were who you
3:22 are and who you could become what else
3:25 can we hear in a person's voice well
3:27 here are some of the simple things that
3:31 you may know and you may be able to hear
3:34 in a person's voice the first one is
3:38 geographic origin and that's why people
3:40 from different places speak with
3:42 different accents and I speak with a
3:45 different accent from you and you will
3:49 know that we are from different origins
3:51 the other thing that we can tell from a
3:54 person's voice is the educational
3:57 background well since you are young you
4:00 may not have watched this movie which is
4:04 my fair lady and you can check it out it
4:08 is played by Audrey Halpern so in this
4:11 movie in the beginning she played an
4:14 character and the way she talked
4:16 reflected her own educated background
4:20 and later she was led on a way on
4:25 a to change the way she talked and of
4:28 course we can also hear experience
4:31 through a person's voice but these are
4:33 all very three simple things you can
4:37 hear in a person's voice we can also
4:43 hear your current state for example your
4:46 physical your mental your emotional
4:50 state when you are well versus when you
4:54 are sick you sound different and that's
4:57 why if you're not sick but you want it
5:01 to call in sick you must make sure that
5:05 you're sound different and when you're nervous
5:06 nervous
5:09 versus when you're calm you sound
5:11 different especially when you're nervous
5:15 your voice trembles your pitch goes high
5:19 and your voice was out of control
5:23 so voice reflects everything that is
5:26 happening in you which sounds scary
5:28 because sometimes when I talk about this
5:32 people stopped talking to me and you can
5:36 also tell your emotional state when you
5:38 are happy when you're angry when you are
5:40 sad you sound different
5:44 so this is a reflection of you the
5:47 current you but the voice can also
5:52 reflect what happened to you who you
5:59 were and that is your past all the
6:01 traumas all the wounds for example you
6:04 have experienced they are all stored in
6:08 your voice and they didn't go anywhere
6:12 they were stored in your voice for
6:15 example have you heard someone speaking
6:18 in this way when they're speaking as if
6:20 that the voice is not supported and the
6:24 voice sounds were joy this might be you
6:28 and that kind of voice also reflect some
6:33 of the wrong resolve issues or another
6:35 voice like this voice when someone is speaking
6:36 speaking
6:38 it sounds very normal right this voice
6:40 sound very normal but what impression do
6:42 you have when someone speaks in this way
6:46 and the impression you may have is this
6:49 person they're as closed is not willing
6:52 to engage so it also shows something
6:58 happened in the past or another voice
7:01 which is so common nowadays and it
7:04 happened probably I would say from my
7:07 experience happens to 80% of the
7:12 population worldwide and that voice is
7:14 this kind of voice can you hear any
7:17 difference from the way that I have been
7:20 speaking if you can hear the difference
7:22 not your head so I know that you can
7:23 hear the difference
7:26 thank you and what difference did you
7:30 hear this voice the pitch goes a bit
7:33 high and the quality is thin and this
7:36 voice you actually have seen that in so
7:38 many people and probably you are also
7:41 one of them and I cannot continue
7:46 because it doesn't feel comfortable so
7:49 that voice is the result of our success
7:54 driven Society and that voice what I
7:58 also call is the head voice because you
8:01 hear the voice is all in the head right
8:06 and the head voice is the result of
8:09 thinking doing analyzing leaving in your
8:12 head and you will find out more what
8:16 happened to that head voice or what
8:19 happened to the 80% of our population
8:23 worldwide but now you know that voice
8:28 reflects everything about you and even
8:32 if you try hard to hide the voice never
8:37 lies but don't be afraid to
8:42 and so that's how much you can tell from
8:48 a person's voice and the good news is
8:53 voice also shows you the doorway to
8:57 change that and the eighty percent of
8:58 the population living in the head voice
9:01 and that's why you'll notice that no
9:05 matter how much that we have achieved we
9:09 just don't feel fulfilled and the
9:12 happiness in almost every country the
9:15 rate is very low because when you are
9:19 speaking and living in your head you are
9:23 cut off from the whole you you are
9:28 literally cutting off from your own body
9:31 so if you can discover your whole voice
9:36 and reconnect with yourself the problems
9:41 would be solved and people living in the
9:44 ancient times they knew better they
9:51 understood the power of our voices when
9:54 people work together they send together
9:56 and when they send together
10:01 the power of unity kept them going well
10:06 now how often do we sing together it
10:08 perhaps happened when you're singing
10:12 national anthems but that brief moment
10:16 of singing together the power of unity
10:21 made you feel something ancient people
10:25 also used the voices to educate and
10:30 entertain they told stories to pass on
10:33 the history often without written words
10:37 in some of the American Indian tribes
10:40 even today they still not use the
10:43 written words because they believe if
10:48 words were written the power is lost
10:52 well nowadays would rather write or type
10:57 than speak if we can type we will not
11:00 speak if we have to speak we would use
11:05 abbreviations like oj pj MJ what else
11:11 take and in early ages in drama all the
11:15 actors they would war they would wear a
11:18 mask and we could only identify the
11:20 characters by listening to their voices
11:25 and that's where the word persona myths
11:30 persona literally is / through sound
11:35 persona which has personalities through
11:38 sound and that's why you will find that
11:42 no another person on the planet will
11:46 sound exactly the same as you well you
11:48 may be able to impersonal eyes some
11:50 people or some celebrities but when you
11:53 listen to the nuances in the voice there
11:58 is still a big distinction because voice
12:03 is representing who you were who you are
12:07 and who you could become voice is not as
12:09 something tripped from the back of your
12:15 mouth it is something that has every
12:18 essence of you and every possibility of you
12:19 you
12:23 so you see voice is not only reflecting
12:26 the past the present you but also it
12:29 reflects the possible the potential you
12:34 so voice is the doorway to help you
12:38 empower yourself and when you started to
12:43 develop the power you will find that you
12:45 feel different not only your voice will
12:48 sound different you will also feel
12:53 different and why is it that the ancient
12:56 people know better even with the
12:59 technology advancement we as the modern
13:02 people have forgotten about
13:05 the power of the voice well we have
13:08 mentioned a little bit just now because
13:11 nowadays especially over the past 20
13:16 years getting busy and busy and driven
13:20 by success after another success we have
13:23 been living in the head and in the head
13:28 there is analyzing thinking doing and we
13:30 have become more of more more and more
13:33 of a human doing instead of a human
13:37 being and when you are focusing too much
13:41 on doing analyzing thinking you lost
13:45 touch with the rest of your body you are
13:48 living in your head and that is showing
13:51 up in your voice as well your voice
13:55 becomes a head voice and that's also why
13:57 that people are not feeling fulfilled
14:00 even with so much success they have
14:04 achieved because you are disconnected
14:07 from yourself and when you are
14:09 disconnected from yourself you are
14:13 disconnected from people around you so
14:17 voice is the dual way to help you mend
14:20 the disconnection establish the
14:25 realignment and Bute congruence just
14:29 like most people I was also conditioned
14:33 in this success driven Society and I had
14:36 a pet voice as well I had a voice that
14:42 was disconnected was my whole self on my
14:45 journey to discover the solutions to be
14:48 more assertive to speak up
14:50 I accidentally developed my whole voice
14:54 and that's where I realized not only I
14:58 sounded more confident but also I felt
15:02 more confidence and my influence also
15:08 grew in self empowerment you realize
15:11 that most people have been working on
15:14 the mind to have a mind that strong resilient
15:15 resilient
15:18 persistent and we also work on our body
15:21 to be fit flexible and strong
15:24 heck we even work on our image to look
15:27 professional but how much attention was
15:30 given to the development of the speaking voice
15:36 unfortunately most voice related
15:42 programs are on singing the more I do my
15:45 work the more I felt a sense of
15:49 responsibility and I have taken on yet
15:55 as my mission to help you rediscover and
15:59 remember the power of your voice and
16:01 experience their transformation
16:04 it can bring to you so that your
16:07 confidence can sort your influence can
16:10 grow and you can live a life that's true
16:14 to yourself you can live a life that's
16:18 connected that's aligned and you most of
16:23 all you can live a life that's fulfilled
16:25 thank you [Applause]
16:26 [Applause] [Music]
16:27 [Music] [Applause]
