The Devil Within - the story of recovering a lost voice
Reviewed
in Positive Health, July 2007, by David Hefferon
Few people realise what an important role the voice plays in all
aspects of your life. 'The Devil Within' is Angela Caine's story
of the failure of her singing career and the discovery that, even
though the problems with her voice were affecting her whole life,
no one could solve them or even considered they were important.
It is the passionate 'gloves off' story of the struggle to recover
personal power and the quality of life, through finding the way
to recover her voice.
The determination that quality speech and singing should be available
to everyone went on to be the incentive for the development of VoiceGym
and Early VoiceGym. Along the way she discovered the lottery of
dental care and the way most dentists ignore the way the teeth interact
with the rest of the body, the lack of any voice development in
education, even for teachers and the lack of any cohesive physical
fitness training and maintenance for the developing singer.
It is a poignant story that touches everyone who has ever asked
"Does my voice really express who I am?" It is also a
stark warning to those who don't think it's important.
It promoted the design of Early
VoiceGym because throughout my life it has become increasingle
clear that generation by generation children in the Western world
are losing the fundamental freedom to develop through play while
increasing their chances of acquiring more and more health and life
problems through poor development of posture, voice and dentition
in the early years. What happened to me fifty years ago should not
be happening now but it is ... all the time.
