At some point or another, we’ve all had that same old fear: standing up in front of a room full of people, and, overcome with anxiety, we forget everything we’d planned to say. With speech coaching and public speaking workshops and classes at Embodied Minds: Public Speaking Consultants, you can finally let go of that fear for good. Founders Leticia Warner an Shira Hon-Lahav have devised a revolutionary approach to public speaking, and they are dedicated to working with clients in ways that unleash creativity, encourage confidence, and lay to rest any fear of public speaking.
While most public speaking lessons focus on an analytical method of instruction, Embodied Minds’ approach does exactly what the company name states. They empower you to use both the left side of the brain (which controls logic and analysis) and right side of the brain (which controls creativity) and express the results in your body (known as somatic expression). This way, the brain and the body are unified, working as a whole to properly relay your message, allay internal fears and anxiety, and captivate your audience.
There are several distinct benefits to learning and utilizing the Embodied Minds method. You will enhance your communication skills in any setting while boosting your self-esteem and self-confidence. Your inner leader will shine forth in a dynamic, commanding way, and you will be honing your creativity to become a better natural storyteller…
History
Established in 2012.
Responding to a dearth of public speaking consultancies that promote creativity, Embodied Minds co-founders Shira Hon-Lahav and Leticia Warner guide clients beyond conventional communication training that is confined to rational, analytical thought.
Influenced by both creative arts therapy and Gestalt theory, they believe that an individual can overcome fears and anxieties relating to presentation. By training the self to recognize and work through both creative and analytical processes, the self is liberated from its internal and external hindrances.
