She literally classified the human voice and sound into the 4 elements. Using yoga. Psychology and a dash of class. Well done Barbara 💕 and thank you so much Queen

vocal empowerment through psychology - I have been doing exactly this for years- making children and adults alike trust their own voices and volume - you are brilliant thank you for this gift

Barbara, Your presentations rings truth. At the age of 46 I thought that while I have an organ with several keyboards, I limited my life to a small range on one keyboard. At the age of 48, I started taking voice classes, and now some 9 years later I am still discovering new colors in my voice (in my self). BRAVO. Avi

She is great!

I first learned about Full Voice when I attended a presentation that Barbara did at a conference. It was a powerful session then and watching the video just now brought me back to that experience. A reminder to invite all of my voices out to play (and work).

Thank you Barbara! You embodied with joy, lightness and power the truth of the voice I have come to understand through my own personal journey with my voice. I am deeply grateful for this reminder and for the added dimension of the 5 elements. I've never considered this dimension, but it makes so much sense. Many Blessings, Emily

She copied the lyrics from an Indian Song by Anup Jalota In hindi it was... "Jab hum paida huey Jag hase hum Roye Aisi Karni kar chalo Hum hase jag Roye" Hahahaha.. We Indians are great musicians to copy from, Good work ! :P

Awesome talk....... Mam, I loose my voice (change in the voice) after talking for sometime. I have a problem of having to clear my throat coz of constant mucus filling in the throat. I have visited an ENT doctor, all is well except because of gastric reflux for which the doctor has prescribed medicines. I feel my life is lifeless because the tone of my voice is not consistent. I have to change my facial expression to try coping up with my voice tone. It is completely tearing my life apart. Please help me or refer me to some sites if possible. Thanks & sincere regards.

No data privacy in our voices - that's the truth! Can practice with the five voice elements change that?

I'm not sure if practicing the Five Elements will shift that -- but becoming more intentional about how you speak can ensure better communications....

Yes - it's a funny way to open up a loud, fiery sound. It helps people get used to being that loud, so when they dial it back to everyday speech, it won't feel so odd. Thanks for the question.
