Is Radio Rehab Right for You?




We have the answers to all our questions inside ourselves - our instincts always know best and always know what is correct. However, after years or even decades of performing a particular way and under a particular direction, we develop crutches, shortcuts and escapes that we need to dig deep to uncover, identify and work through.

If you're experiencing Red Light Reflex or are blocked creatively, Radio Rehab can help!

Please ask yourself these questions:

1) Do I brace myself physically and mentally before a recording session?

2) Do I have an adaptable methodology when preparing a script?

3) Am I honest and intimate about script preparation?

4) Is it easy for me to get lost or distracted by the details of an assignment?

5) Am I pleased when I listen back to my auditions and gigs?

6) Is there an inner voice that conflicts with what my instincts tell me to do?

 

If you answered yes to 3 or more of these questions, please email Moneen@MoVibe.com or call toll free in the US 1-877-MoVibe0 for a free 15 minute consulation on what is troubling or blocking you from what you want to achieve at the mic!

Performance Palate Cleansing!


Lemon Sorbet and Vodka Cleanse Your Palate Between Courses During Fine Dining -
What About Cleansing Your Performance Palate Between Sessions?
 
 
Have you ever enjoyed one of those extraordinary meals where an elegant little delivery of sorbet comes to cleanse your palate between courses?  It's a lively, lilting and refreshing way to enjoy the individual flavors, textures and sensations of each course as it was intended. 
 
There was a restaurant in New Hampshire (it recently closed) called The Pond View - they had a lovely view (of aforementioned pond), charming old china in mismatched elegance, a classic menu, twinkling decor and an outdoor bar on a dock with paddle boats for cruising with your drink - all in all a real treat.  There have been countless memories made there - intimate conversations, joyous events, and a few tipsy times.  Th best meals were the ones where the server would caringly bring out a delicate little silver bowl with peach sherbet or a dainty glass with lemon sorbet to cleanse the palate - sophisticated and effective.
 
It is this way at the microphone or wherever we're performing - we need to cleanse our performance palate between sessions and gigs to psychologically move from one attitude to another or to go from the external world to the internal world. One of the many self direction techniques I use and teach my private voice over clients is Performance Palate Cleansing.
 
How does that work? Like with any self direction technique, your instincts rule. For instance, a client last week said she felt the urge to deliver a script like Lauren Bacall but the promo was for the Discovery channel so she censored herself thinking she needed to adopt a more energized and youthful approach. The rest of the session she struggled with distraction. OK, the Lauren Bacall read may not be the winning take but at least experiment with your inner Lauren Bacall or the attitude of Bacall to create something unique and believable. Simply reading the script with a full on Bacall delivery may crack open an idea, sound or prep work detail that you hadn't considered...in effect allowing for a new flavor, texture and sensation. 
 
If you'd like to know more about this and other self direction techniques for voice over performance or public speaking/presentation, please shoot me an email at Moneen@MoVibe.com or call toll free in the US 1-877-MoVibe0, that's 877-668-4230.
 
Happy Dining and Happy Performing!

About the Seminar:

In 1986, psychoanalyst and social scientist, Norberto Keppe, wrote a
seminal book about the pathology of power.

Liberation of the People was the first study of the psycho-socio pathology of people with power, and what he wrote here is highly relevant for activists and social change agents around the world.

If we understand and apply what Keppe wrote back then, we will have the tools to effect real change right now. Not just change that rearranges the furniture, but the meaningful change to a just and free society that has eluded us for so long.

With echoes of the ideals from the French Revolution, of the poetry and fire of the Founding Fathers and their extraordinary Declaration of Independence, of the universal appeal to human rights in the U.N.
Declaration of Human Rights, Keppe’s Liberation of the People is an inspirational rallying cry for all concerned human beings around the world fighting to bring true, lasting, peaceful change on Earth.

Liberation of the People - Call to Action!

Liberation of the People from the Pathology of Power

“We, the people, are in the majority; we are 99%, controlled in a sick manner by 1%. We are
the strength and true power (divine) on this earth.”
From Liberation of the People: The Pathology of Power, page 24, Norberto R. Keppe, New York, 1986

As the Occupy Movement gains strength as a symbol of the indignation of the 99%,
Norberto Keppe’s analysis of the pathology of power (written in 1986!) has never been
more relevant. We at the STOP the Destruction of the World Association have worked closely
with Dr. Keppe for many years to bring consciousness of the root causes of the destruction
of nature and human society. Now, at this crucial time in our history, we would like to reintroduce
Keppe’s great work as a scientific resource for all freedom-minded people seeking
a more just and equitable society.

We’ve published Keppe’s A Call to Action, the compelling introduction to his great work here:
