imkhushi heyyy!!! I use my phone to record myself. I am looking into other devices to record my voice <3
This is so unique, I’ve never heard of this and totally wish I did years ago so I could’ve listened to the difference between then and now.
saylor heyyy!!! Thank you so much, there’s a first for everything, right? Try it out now or whenever you’re ready and just embrace the beauty if your voice <3
For me this has always come easiest while driving alone. It’s the only time I’m truly isolated. But under no circumstances will I ever go back and listen to those recordings. Just like regular journaling I get the thoughts out and try to leave them behind.
grape Ahaha omg I can totally understand where you coming from. Do what makes you most comfortable and liberated. If that works for you then that’s beautiful 🤍
Thank you for your comment <3
interesting!! i usually keep my journals on paper (sometimes digital), but it hasn't really occurred to me to try out voice journaling :o can't help but be a bit nervous around it, especially cuz i'm no native english speaker haha
i bet it does feel encouraging to hear that nervousness melt away over time, though!! so it's an idea that i'll be happy to welcome :) do you use any recording software or do you just record straight into your phone?
fourleaf Heyyy!!! Glad to hear your experience 🤍. Reading that you aren’t an English speaker doesn’t change anything. You can speak with pride and love in your mother tongue when you create voice journals. Hearing the sound of your voice in your language will simply be artistic and meaningful. The first time it felt so weird but as time went by I found a sense of liberation from that nervousness and embraced every tone and pronunciation of my voice without needing to speak in a certain way but embrace the sound and tone of my voice :)
I usually use my phone to record.
Onyi_Budds oh that sounds lovely!! what a nice way to build up confidence in speaking too - i'm assuming all that stuff is bound to follow if you just embrace what you do. i have lots of respect for people who could be that in tune with themselves, so i'll probably try it out haha :) definitely feeling super inspired now
(although like the other commenter, i feel like i'll tend to avoid playing it back for a good while.. i gotta build up that tolerance to actually hear myself speak, aha)
fourleaf Thank you so much and I hope the experience is worthwhile. You can always go at a pace thats comfortable for you. Starting with 10 second voice journals to 5 minute long voice journals. Just have fun and be free with your expression. ❤️
It took me so much patience and effort to get to this point, but it’s been so liberating meeting and connecting with so many beautiful people that inspire me more.
Onyi_Budds it's no problem at all!! i'd like to thank you too for this :) earlier i actually caught myself talking out loud to.. myself to sort of "prepare" for voice journaling haha. i do like the idea of the small time frame!! i'll try to do just that and hope it helps!
much love and many well wishes your way 💐
