Book Description

December 1, 2003

Research has shown that in a telephone conversation, 92% of the impact comes from vocal tones and only eight percent from the words that are spoken. Likewise, in any face-to-face spoken communication, only 8% on the impact the listener comes from the words that are used, 37% comes from the tone of voice, and the remaining 55% from body language. Achieving Vocal Power requires that you must make a strong impact on your listener on all three of these levels: words, tone of voice, and body language simultaneously. So, how will the Vocal Awareness System improve your mental focus, vocal quality, body language, and self-esteem (among other benefits) all at once?

The vocal workout, originated by Arthur Joseph almost four decades ago, will help you as it has countless others, accomplish a complete personal transformation. Through a series of sound-making and biomechanical warm-up exercises, you will deepen and liberate your breathing; engender relaxation in your tongue, jaw, neck, and shoulders; and strengthen your larynx (a.k.a. your "voice box") so that the sound of your voice improves. Simultaneously, you will learn how to sharpen your concentration and move through and beyond your emotional obstacles all through a program that can be done in as little as seven minutes a day.

Because the Vocal Awareness System integrates your mind/body/spirit, you will find the techniques have the potential to:

  • Alleviate common vocal and communication problems, such as fear of public speaking, using a high "little girl" voice or a weak ineffectual male voice, and vocal tension, among other issues.
  • Improve your physical health, for instance by relieving sever jaw tension (also known as TMJ), hoarseness, and tension.
  • Enhance your body language and correct poor posture while easing back problems and other tension-related conditions.
  • Free your singing voice.
  • Improve your self-esteem.
  • And so much more!

5.0 out of 5 stars Business leaders can benefit from this vocal power work, March 13, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Vocal Power: Harnessing the Power Within (Hardcover)
I am a big fan of Arthur Samuel Joseph. I have listened to his 3-CD set audio program VOICE OF A LEADER at least four times now. Every time I listen to it, I get more richness and insight from his work. I have purchased the CD set and given it to several of my clients for their leadership development. My recent purchase of his book VOCAL POWER has brought additional depth and action in this important work for vocal development. I look forward to the day when I can attend a workshop taught by Mr. Joseph himself. Until then, his wonderful books and audio training CD's are the tools that I will be leveraging for my professional development as a speaker, trainer, coach and leader. I suggest you do the same. It's a great investment in your career, business and life! - Kathy McAfee, America's Marketing Motivator and author of Networking Ahead for BusinessVocal Power: Harnessing the Power Within
