Are you a conscious speaker? In the fast-paced world of today, where every word counts and communication is key, being a conscious speaker sets you apart. But what does it mean to be a conscious speaker?
Picture this: Remember when breathwork became a thing? Many of us realized that without deep awareness, practice, and knowledge, even something as natural as breathing could be done incorrectly. The same applies to our voices.
Our voice, often overlooked in personal development, is a powerful tool that's intimately connected to our breathing. As we navigate through life, our speaking habits become automated, much like our daily routines. But becoming a conscious speaker means breaking free from autopilot and harnessing the true power of our voice.
In the realm of manifestation and personal empowerment, our voice plays a pivotal role. "As we speak, so we create" – a mantra I often share on stage and in my seminars.
Think about it: our voice is our primary means of interaction with the world, shaping our reality with every word uttered.
Enter the throat chakra in Human Design – the epicenter of manifestation. It's the gateway that connects us with the world, channeling the energy within us. And it's not just about what we say; it's about how we say it. Ever heard someone say "I'm fine" with a lackluster voice, betraying their true emotions? Our voice reveals more than just words; it reflects our innermost thoughts and feelings.
Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, "Who you are speaks so loudly if I cannot hear what you say." In a world where authenticity is scarce, our voice becomes our beacon of truth. That's where conscious speaking comes in – it's about taking up space and permitting ourselves to be heard.
Why become a conscious speaker, you ask? It's simple – to enhance communication, influence, impact, inspiration, and connection. It's about saying what you mean and getting what you want.
Ready to embark on the journey of conscious speaking?
Three powerful conscious speaking journal prompts to get you started
Breath awareness
Where do you feel your breath in your body when you speak? Can you deepen your breath, allowing it to flow from your belly rather than just your chest?
Mindful communication
Where is your attention when you communicate? Are you present in the moment, or are you preoccupied with how you're being perceived? Shift your focus from self-doubt to self-assurance.
Pace and pause
What is your speaking pace like? Do you rush through your words, or do you take your time, allowing for pauses and reflection? Embrace the power of silence and let your words resonate.
By integrating these practices into your daily routine, you'll cultivate a deeper awareness of your voice and its impact on others. And if you're eager to unlock your most powerful voice, consider joining the Own Your Voice Program – where women from around the world transform their speaking and communication skills, personally and professionally.
Your voice is your greatest asset. It's time to unleash its full potential and make your mark on the world.
