I think that sincere belief leads to congruence in your speech. Everything falls into place. Your gestures become natural, your vocals become powerful, and your words hit the spot. Absolutely!

Enjoyed your educational seminar at the District 27 conference ... Thanks! Now I'm dropping you a note to ask for a copy of the PowerPoint slides you referred to during that educational session ... BTW, I've book-marked this website and intend to drop in from time to time so as to continue my own education and training in 'speech-a-fying' ... I look forward to the day when your aspiration as mentioned above becomes a pleasant memory. Let me know how I can help you attain this goal ...

]]> Comment on Shaping Your Speech-Hand Gestures by Tim Noonan http://samconnerspeaks.wordpress.com/2007/10/17/shaping-your-speech-hand-gestures/#comment-4 Tim Noonan Mon, 12 Mar 2007 06:30:24 +0000 http://samconnerspeaks.wordpress.com/2007/10/17/shaping-your-speech-hand-gestures/#comment-4 I've been Googling for informative textual descriptions of gesture and its meaning for public and professional speaking, and this article was very helpful. My actual challenge is that I am totally blind, and so much gesture is unconsciously seen, and then becomes part of spacial understanding. Are there any texts which contain good and more expansive chapters of the symbolism of gesture, but which also verbally describe it, rather than just showing examples? Any ideas and thoughts would be much appreciated.
