Instructions
Step 1
Listen to your voice. Often times, many people don't like the way they sound their voice. Use any recording device to complete this step. A voice recorder, voicemail, or Skype will do. You need to listen to your voice well before you start working on it. There is an important point here: record your voice and put it aside. Listen only on the second day. Speaking trainers give this advice. Thus, you will be more objective in your assessment.
Step 2
Start working on the weaknesses in your voice. One of the biggest obstacles to opening up your voice is getting rid of monotony. Often this phenomenon occurs over the phone or in public speaking. Many people think that not raising or lowering your voice is a sign of professionalism. In fact, this all makes the voice sluggish and unemotional. Speak as if you are telling a funny joke or a compelling story. Raise your tone as if you are with your family and have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. All of this will make people listen to you.
Step 3
Learn to stretch your mouth and jaw as well as your muscles before exercising. Lower your jaw as low as possible and raise it to close your mouth. Repeat this movement several times. This exercise helps to prepare the organs of speech well. Also, if you are going to give a speech, repeat the following phrase many times: "Behind the lips - teeth with tongue." This will help relax your mouth. Another effective exercise is done in front of a mirror. Open your mouth wide and repeat several times: "Nga, ngo, ngu, nge, ngya." Do these exercises daily.
Step 4
Use a chest voice. It sounds lower and clearer. The idea is for the voice to come from the center of the body.. So basically you can use the diaphragm in conversation. To do this, you just need to take a few breaths, relax and start speaking naturally. Try not to suppress your voice, let it flow from within. During the conversation, you should feel the abdominal muscles contract. All this will make your voice more pleasant.
