The Singing Cure

When Sigmund Freud developed his revolutionary model for treating psychological problems, he called it "The Talking Cure". Freud embraced the ancient Greek concept of catharsis, while ignoring how it was originally practiced: through the expression of extreme vocal sounds, which resembled songs more than words. On The Singing Cure, vocal researcher Paul Newham presents the world's only professional training course in therapeutic singing. So effective it has been accredited by England's Royal Society of the Arts, The Singing Cure presents a complete course in Voice Movement Therapy "TM", a system for expressing the many aspects of the self through singing. Utilizing simple exercises adapted from many vocal healing traditions, including indigenous cultures, Newham helps listeners investigate who they are and how they feel. The Singing Cure is a new way for unmasking the natural singing voice -- and reclaiming a beautiful, empowering instrument for living fully.
