Did you know that one of the most powerful tools you have to aid you in this life is actually a simple thing that you don’t often pay attention to?
According to therapist Jhenneviev Heartt in the YourTango Experts video above, too many people spend their time denying themselves the full use of this incredible tool.
But just how can your voice be used in the way that it was meant to?

Well, each of us has tremendous power to speak truths through the use of our words. To access is, you will need to learn how to tap into this special portion of yourself.
To accomplish this, you have to be quiet enough and aware enough of yourself, so that you can access the space where you can listen to the truth that lies inside of you.
This is such an important step in being able to use our voice as a tool to heal and express yourself! If you don’t know what you need, how can you tell others?
You must become present enough in your needs to apply your voice as a boundary setting tool and to let others know about the needs you have or the feelings you want to share.
After all, understanding our feelings and needs are one thing, but expressing those needs to others is entirely another. It can be difficult to talk about ourselves and to acknowledge those important and intricate parts. But using your voice to acknowledge them requires strength and a deep understanding of your needs.
Surrendering to who we are and accepting that we can be vulnerable is also incredibly important.
Using your voice is so necessary because it’s such a powerful tool. Your voice can be used to give yourself what you need, whether it’s saying yes to something you’ve been thinking about or even telling someone no to a situation or identifying an object that you don’t need in your life.
Too many times, people refuse to use their voice to speak up for themselves and tell other people what they need. This can be done either by agreeing to do something that you actually don’t want to do, or even by denying yourself an opportunity out of fear.
Regardless, your voice is a powerful tool that can be used to defend yourself, speak up for yourself, or even tell people whatever is in your heart.
So how can you activate your voice in your daily life?
According to Jhenneviev, you can do this through speaking, singing, or even meditation and chanting. Connect with your voice in order to connect with yourself so that you can use it as the powerful tool that it’s meant to be!
