Publisher's Summary:
Ancient cultures looked at the human voice as the link between the inner and outer psyches. The voice was viewed not only as an instrument of self-expression but also as a powerful means of self-alignment.
Healing Yourself with Your Own Voice is about rediscovering the natural power of the human voice and its role in establishing a balanced, healthful life. Don Campbell, founder of the Institute for Music, Health, and Education, and author of the national best seller The Mozart Effect, leads you through step-by-step exercises to demonstrate how different sounds affect the brain and the body. Exercises focus on the alignment of mind, body, and voice; an inner massage; and much more.
Members Reviews:
Well done and a useful book.
I used this book for my university teaching and enjoyed the results. The students enjoyed the concepts within, and I found them useful in my own performing.
very disappointing
I had hoped beyond hope that this wasn't as bad as most Sounds True products have become.
I was wrong.
This is a typical product of theirs: starts off with an introduction telling what you bought (duh...). The main program, rather than getting to the point, drones on forever with overwritten fluff, poorly read. The voice sounds almost like it is computer generated at times. The reader (the author, I assume) tries to sound interesting, but comes across very strangely, even goofy at times. It was almost painful to listen to him.
I was hoping the author actually had something valuable to say, but getting through all the endless buildup to the few tiny things of value was more than I could take. My time is valuable - I don't appreciate people wasting it with a ton of padding to stretch material out. This content is easily 90 percent empty over-writing which contributes nothing. If you like long tirades with lots of side trails, then you might enjoy this. I, however, was hoping for instruction to help me with vocal toning and healing, not a lot of background material about Greek theater and other such irrelevant stuff, nor a bunch of stories designed to make me believe that vocal healing was possible.
I already bought the CD, people, I don't need to be sold again and again and again. Get to the point. I thought I was buying some instruction, not a history lesson.
I wanted a CD full of instruction, exercises, and focused information about healing with my voice. I was severely disappointed. (Can you tell?)
All the usual mistakes are here: excessive rambling; lack of documentation (the only listing of the topics is on the disc - kind of hard to refer to it when it is in the player, people); the empty feeling after listening; the sense that they took 5 minutes of actual instruction and stretched it into a full CD, and so on.
There were a bunch of extra paper leaves holding the CD that made it seem like there were things missing. No booklet, no external listing of the program to refer to while listening, no explanations, nothing.
If you like long stories and endless talking with little actual information, then you will enjoy this. If you are looking for good, solid instruction in clear, concise terms, I think you will be greatly disappointed, too.
Jonathan Goldman's work is far better (once he ditched Sounds True and started doing his own stuff).
Not recommended.
