Blog #5. THE COMPLETE JOY OF VOCALIZING

While there are many aspects of vocalizing that contribute to spiritual, mental, and physical well-being, perhaps the greatest benefit is simply THE COMPLETE JOY OF VOCALIZING.

Recently as I was walking through a local park the path went underneath the road through a concrete overpass.  These structures are wonderfully vibrant and resonant and make great places to Vocalize Yourself.  As I walked a mother with some young children ages 5 – 8 years old passed by.  As one young girl walked through the overpass she was intoning or expressing simple joy by loudly singing/chanting the tone WHEEEE, WHEEEEE, several times.  She then laughed as she walked away with the others saying “that was fun”.

This whole simple experience reminded me that we are born with abilities to openly vocalize starting with crying right at or shortly after birth.  As we experience family, school, and social programing much of this vocalizing capability is buried, lost, or even purposely subdued to fit in with social norms.   While we all talk, shout, scream, sing to some extent, most of us do not regularly exercise and develop our vocal systems.

What do you do to regularly exercise and expand your vocal system?  As you use the Vocalize Yourself exercise program you too can experience THE COMPLETE JOY OF VOCALIZING, while contributing to your state of WELL BEING!  Enjoy!
