 you don’t have to suffer any longer.

I am going to tell you all of

(5)

transform my voice, and am confident that if you follow  them diligently you will be amazed at the results.

Now here is a little more about my story…

Growing up, I was always teased. Perhaps it was the combination of my scrawny body, or my meager

high-pitched voice. It never really bothered me until I hit puberty,  because I had a couple of good buddies throughout high

school – my problem was with the ladies.

There was this one girl, though, let's call her "Courtney," and for some wild reason, she took a liking towards me in my  senior year. I don't know if it was because she pitied me for  being the kid in Mr. Czudner's math class who constantly 

had spit balls blown at the back of his head with a straw, but the day Courtney sat behind me, was the day God answered my prayers. Sort of...

Courtney and I started talking, and eventually she asked me if I could tutor her in algebra. I really got to know her when she started periodically calling me whenever her and her  boyfriend were in argument. We'd talk for hours on end.

(6)

 When she and her boyfriend broke up during the springtime, my buddy Carl managed to convince me to work up the

courage to ask her to prom. He used the reasoning that if I didn't ask, I'd always regret it, and I would never get laid,  which I guess, in retrospect, was pretty good reasoning.

So Courtney said yes, and I thought, "Sweet. Maybe this

chick actually digs me!" Oh, and she liked me, alright – like a  brother. That's probably the worst compliment you can get

from a girl you're crushing on. When I finally grew the guts to kiss her at the end of the night, she was literally appalled. But here's the best part: she thought I was gay. Gay. I was shocked and humiliated. I mustered up the words to ask her  why, and she said something along the lines of, "You sort of 

talk like you are... your voice is really high-pitched."

 And there it is. My breakthrough. A blessing in disguise. That summer before I took off for college, I knew I had to make a change. I wanted a deeper voice.

Someone had suggested performing certain neck and voice exercises in order to achieve a deeper voice. After a few days

(7)

of exercising my neck muscles, my neck looked noticeably  thicker. I always thought I had a bad case of pencil neck, so a thicker neck boosted my self-confidence and gave me the motivation I needed to work on the rest of my body.

 After about a week, I woke up to a nice, deep, masculine

 voice one morning. My voice felt powerful, and nearly lasted all day, until my old, squeaky voice crept back throughout the evening. By day's end, my voice was disappointingly back  to normal. Nevertheless, I kept up the exercises and about two days later, the deep, crisp voice returned. I was

determined to keep the depth this time, so I used my voice sparingly. It held.

I was careful at first. I was conscious of my posture, and talked with a measured response around people until my  deep voice became second nature. I practiced everyday, morning and night – talking to myself in a deep, loud voice  while shaving, getting dressed, making food, and so on.

Remembering to keep good posture really aided the

transition from my high-pitched, squeaky voice to my new  deep, masculine voice. It was a constant cue in my memory 

(8)

to access the low voice that I desired and had perfected through much practice.

If you can relate to my experience, you too, can have a deeper  voice. There is hope. I can guarantee you that if you do the

exercises outlined in this ebook, drink plenty of water, and practice, your body will learn to adapt to a deeper voice.

My deep voice gave me the confidence I needed. I went off to college as a man, not the boy I once was, and let me tell you – my new found confidence and hard work paid off in the female department.

2 - Introduction

 What defines a man? (Aside from the biological factor – that’s not much of a secret…)

(9)

In today’s society, being a man can be tough. The web of  stereotypes the media has sewn has clouded society, and the pressures of the past and present have collided, blurring our  view of masculinity. Nowadays, it is not unusual to have a

man stay at home while his wife goes off to work, or to come across a man that enjoys being in the kitchen; some

professions are no longer female dominated, such as teachers and nurses. But with no clear definition of 

masculinity, the only characteristics that define a man are physical attributes – characteristics that not all men are  blessed with due to a little thing we call genetics.

 You wish you were a little bit taller. You wish your physique  were more toned and muscular. You wish your voice were

deeper. This is where the media has constructed a physical fallacy of the “ideal” male. You may not be able to change  your height, or your bone structure, but there is one thing  you can change, and that is your voice. For whatever reason,  whether you’re trying to attract the woman of your dreams,

or impress a boss at work – a deep voice can help you

achieve your goal. Because if you can deliver a deep, clear, masculine voice, you may not need to worry about all the

(10)

other expectations that are placed on the male gender. If you can talk the talk, you can walk the walk.

3 - Anatomy

 A weak voice is not the result of a small voice box, or tiny   vocal chords. The vocal chords are a muscle group, and like

any other muscle in our body, they have the ability to stretch, grow and strengthen. The vocal chords are responsible for the tone and pitch a person speaks. They form the raw 

sound, while the mouth and tongue form each specific word. Conditioning the vocal chords to become relaxed and supple is the secret to getting the deep, masculine voice that you’ve always wanted.

If your voice box is stressed, the muscles are too tight –

(11)

 your vocal chords to be loose and supple, in order to produce lower and deeper tones.

Try it yourself: Create a humming sound. Notice the sound change as you tilt your head up, and then tilt it down with  your chin close to your chest.

The results indicate that as you tilt your head up, the

humming has a higher pitch, and once you tilt your head down, the humming has a much lower sound. The reasoning is simple: when you tilt your head up, you are stretching the  vocal chords, tightening them. This test proves that if your  vocal chords are tight, they cannot produce a deep, low voice.

KeyPoints:

⇒The vocal chords are a muscle group that is responsible

for the pitch and tone of our voice.

⇒ When vocal chords are tense, they will produce a voice

 with a higher pitch.

⇒In order to produce a deep, low, masculine voice, the

4 - How to Achieve a Deep Voice: Step 1

Here’s the meat of it people… what you really want to hear, so pay close attention.

Here we go…

 What happens when we develop and tone a muscle? That’s right, the muscle itself becomes thicker and enlarged. A  strong muscle is able to do more work with less effort. If we strengthen our neck muscles, the vocal chords are able to

relax within the toned group of muscles, holding up our neck  and head.

(13)

 As an example, a “pot belly” occurs when the abdominal wall is not strong enough to hold in your stomach. In order to get rid of it, you have to strengthen the abdominal muscles.

Let’s say you did sit-ups everyday for one month – you would definitely have more defined, toned abs as a result. Even if   you still have a layer of fat covering your abs, and you can’t

see the definition, you will notice when your stomach is

relaxed, that your potbelly is gone. This is because the toned abdominals are holding their shape, resisting the push of   your organs even when relaxed. The abdominals are thicker,

and you no longer need to consciously tense them.

The sternocleidomastoids are the neck muscles that will

(14)

By performing these exercises, you will achieve a deeper  voice in a matter of days.

• On your bed, lay vertically on your back with your

head and shoulders hanging off the edge.

• Tilt your head back and forth, up and down,

tensing your neck muscles with each movement.

• Hold your head in each position for 10 seconds,

and slowly release your head back to its original position.

• Repeat each of these movements 15 times, or until

 you can feel a burn in your neck.

• Switch sides, and repeat.

(15)

⇒Make sure to really tense your muscles as you perform

each movement.

Below is a chart that outlines the best exercises to help strengthen the neck muscles:

Exercise Muscles Worked Execution

Neck Lateral Resistance Works all neck lateral neck muscles Hold one hand against the side of  your head. Use your hand to resist the movement as you try to touch your shoulder with your ear. Hold this posture for a count of 5.

Neck Rotational Resistance Works all neck muscles Hold one hand against the side of  your head. Use your hand to resist the movement as you try to rotate your head to one side until your chin is lined on top of your shoulder. Hold this posture for a count of 5.

Neck Forward Resistance Works all anterior neck muscles Hold both hands against your

forehead. Try to move head forward, but resist the movement with your hands. Hold this posture for a count of 5.

Neck Backward Resistance Works all posterior neck muscles. Place both hands behind your head. Try to move head backwards, but resist the movement with your hands. Don't tip chin. Hold this posture for a

(16)

 You will be amazed at how well your muscles respond in size and tension.

In just a short time, you will have a deeper voice. You will need to maintain this change in order to make it permanent,  but not as often as at first.

Step 2: HYDRATION

The next step in keeping your voice box supple is to drink  plenty of water – at least 2 liters a day.

 Why? Because when your body is dehydrated, your muscles shrink.

By day 4 or 5, you will have the necessary muscle tone to

(17)

to work. Your muscles will no longer be stressed and tense, instead, they will begin to loosen up, and you will notice your  voice start to lower.

Step 3: REST

 You need to expose your vocal chords to an extended period of rest.

Even people with high-pitched, squeaky voices, will wake up in the morning with a deeper, raspier voice. The reason

 behind this is because the vocal chords were exposed to a restful night of sleep, whereby they lost the usually present tension due to inactivity.

Eventually, once your neck muscles have reached a point that they are strong enough to solely hold your head up, the  vocal chords will be exposed to the same relaxed

environment that a good night’s sleep often gives, because they will not be working as hard. This will give you a

(18)

KeyPoints:

⇒Do 3-5 sets of exercises at least 3 times a day.

⇒ While performing exercises, keep your neck muscles

tense. This will maximize your muscle’s potential strength.

⇒Drink at least 2 litres of water a day.

⇒Make sure to get plenty of rest, so that your muscles are

able to recover and regain strength.

5 - Training Your Voice

 After a few days of performing the exercises listed above, as  well as drinking a consistent amount of water and getting

plenty of rest, you will be well on your way to having a deeper voice.

(19)

Now, you have to train yourself to find the right pitch. Just as singers have to practice and train their voice, you too need to practice the tone of your voice.

Try it yourself:

• Begin to hum slowly in a low tone.

• Gradually lower and deepen your hum by tilting your

head close to your chest until you are no longer

humming fluidly, but rather your hums are sounding one increment at a time.

By training your voice, you are essentially creating a memory  in your brain. This is a crucial step, as you will consciously  start to find that tone of voice when speaking socially.

Here is another cool exercise to try, that really works:

http://deepvoicemastery.com/members/?p=71 (you’ll need  your unique username and password that was provided to  you during sign-up).

Eventually, it just becomes a habit that you develop until  your voice begins to respond permanently to the training. A 

(20)

new habit takes at least 21 days to form. Practicing the tone of your voice by performing exercises and speaking aloud in  your own privacy is the way to create the deep voice that you

desire.

In my personal experience, I began my practicing with my  humming, in deep, slow, incremental tones. After I found my  the level of deepness that suited me, I started using my voice, and talking aloud to myself. Now, this may sound ridiculous,  but here’s my tip to you: during your daily morning or

nightly routine, talk aloud to yourself while looking at your reflection in the mirror. My newfound deep voice increased my self-image. I began thinking positively, and verbally  reinforced myself in my convincing, deep voice.

Last, comes the unsettling part – making the link to speaking deeply in a social environment. Here’s what you have to do:  You know that tone that you practiced and perfected while in

the comfort of your own home? That deep, smooth,

masculine voice that sent shivers down your spine and (let’s  be honest) shot your self-esteem up like gas prices?

(21)

 Well, what you’ve done with that voice is you’ve created a “place” in your brain where the memories of your practicing is stored.

⇒Now you must learn how to zone in on that “place,” –

that happy memory in your brain, when you’re in a social or work environment.

Eventually your body will begin to learn to alter your vocal chords as your brain links the positive memories of your deep voice with social and work environments.

By learning how to access these new memories you’ve

created through practice in privacy, this “place” in your brain  will naturally dominate when in a social environment.

KeyPoints:

⇒Start your training by humming in low tones and

finding the tone that is right for you.

⇒Gradually begin talking to yourself aloud in the comfort

of your own home, where you can practice and perfect  your deep voice.

⇒This creates a memory in your brain that you will focus

(22)

⇒Eventually, a habit is formed, and your brain will learn

to subconsciously zone in on your practiced memory   when speaking in public.

6 – Vocal Awareness

Posture is one of the most important factors to bear in my  mind when speaking in public. Posture is directly linked to  voice resonance, physically, but more importantly,

emotionally.

Have you ever noticed a friend's posture when they're in a  bad mood? Often their posture is hunched over - their body 

language indicating that they're upset.

Practicing proper posture will act as a catalyst in successfully  developing your deep voice. While practicing, remember to

(23)

stand tall and straight. What this will do is give your body a cue when you’re in social environment, because your brain  will associate that new posture with your “practice”

memories.

Having good posture will also help you decrease any anxiety   you may have when speaking in public. Perhaps you’re trying

to talk to a woman you’ve been lusting after, or you’re

preparing for a presentation at work – in any case, standing tall and straight will give you an air of confidence, and will help you breathe deeply, which will in turn relax your vocal chords and reduce anxiety.

Here are a couple more tips to ensure that your hard practice pays off:

• The angle of your head should be level when you are

about to speak – neither lowered to your chest, nor raised, causing the vocal chords to stretch.

• Try talking more quietly and carefully as you adjust to

 your new voice. This will keep you relaxed while you make a conscious effort, and it will also train your body  to access your “practiced” memories during social

(24)

situations.

KeyPoints:

⇒Practice good posture. This means standing tall with

 your shoulders straight and your head level.

⇒Proper posture will give you confidence, reduce anxiety,

and relax your vocal chords, maximizing your deep  voice.

⇒Until you are comfortable and confident with your new 

 voice, make a conscious effort to speak quietly and carefully, as this will cue your brain to access your

trained voice and the body language that accompanies this memory.

⇒Keep in mind that this will take time and repetition in

(25)

7 – Voice Care

 When it comes to having a crisp, clear voice, most of us do not really observe good voice care measures on a daily basis. In fact, we would not give a second thought to eating certain foods or taking alcohol or caffeinated drinks regularly.

Below I will outline some important voice care tips, that will help you maximize the depth and crispness of your voice, and minimize vocal chord damage that will eventually cause  your voice to deteriorate.

Here are the general guidelines that we can follow to take care of our voice:

1. Maintain Good Posture and Proper Breathing Control When Speaking

Maintain an upright neutral position with your entire body, as well as your head and neck. Make sure you breath

(26)

Be sure to tighten up your abdominals and push the air out of your mouth with your diaphragm for powerful projection.  Your chin should not be too high, or too low.

2. Regular Exercise & a Healthy Diet

This applies to our voice care and also to our body in general.  Achieving a level of optimal health is very beneficial to

maximizing the potential of your voice. This is because when our bodies fall ill, we may feel fatigue, experience congestion, soar throats, or may not even practice proper vocal technique  when speaking. This in turn will cause unnecessary damage

to our voices, and we would do well to keep ourselves healthy  so that our voices will be healthy as well.

3. Keep Your Neck, Jaw & Face Relaxed When Speaking

 When we speak, we control our breath using the diaphragm and the other surrounding abdominal and intercostal

muscles. Our voice is controlled with our vocal cords, and supporting muscles. It’s important not too involve other muscle groups when we want to maximize the depth of our  voice (such as the neck, jaw and facial muscles). Doing so  will affect the sound of or voice by increasing the amount of 

(27)

tension in our throats and in our vocal cords, making the  voice sound higher and less clear.

4. Reduce Speaking Time in Noisy Environments  When we are in extremely noisy environments that cause us

to yell or shout for extended periods of time, we put

unnecessary strain on our voices. This strain will (over time) actually damage the vocal cords. Simply put, try not to yell too much as it is very likely to damage your vocal cords and possibly hinder the sound of your voice.

5. Considerations for Medication

The use of certain medications can affect your voice

negatively. The following meds can cause dryness in our  voice, making us sound crackly and squeaky:

•  Anti-histamines

• Decongestants

•  Anti-depressants

 Also be particularly careful with over-the-counter local

anaesthetic medication for the throat. This medication can reduce nerve sensitivity in the throat, and create numbness,

(28)

making our voice more susceptible to damage. This is  because we are unable to feel our voice as usual.

*Tip

⇒If you suffer form acid reflux, be sure to take antacids.

If you don’t, the acid can damage the throat tissues (including the vocal cords) and cause permanent damage.

(29)

8 - Testosterone Buccal

Testosterone Buccal is a method commonly used by men  who do not produce enough testosterone naturally. The

hormone itself is produced by your body and is one of the main contributing factors when determining the growth and development levels of certain male characteristics.

 You can view a video of a voice before and after testosterone treatment by following this link to the members area:

http://deepvoicemastery.com/members/?p=98 (you will have to login to the page using the user name and password that was provided to you during sign-up).

If you are someone with lower than normal levels of 

testosterone (can be determined by a medical doctor), then  you may experience some of the following symptoms:

• High Pitched Voice

• Decreasing Levels of Muscle

• Depression

• Lack of Energy 

(30)

• Low Sex Drive & Functionality 

If you feel like the above symptoms describe you, then you may want to consult your family doctor in regards to possible Testosterone Buccal systems. However, if your voice is

simply high pitched and you're not experiencing the other listed symptoms, then the chances are, you just need to train  your voice using our proven system rather than "fixing

something that's not broken".

Testosterone Buccal is a pretty big commitment if you're going to take it properly. With normal pills or injections you  would take a tablet every so often and forget about it until  your next dose. With Testosterone Buccal however, you must

place the tablet in between your upper gum and lip once,

every 12 hours in most cases. The tablet will not fully dissolve so therefore, you must be conscious at all times of any 

snacking, eating, tobacco chewing, or other activities that may interfere with the placement of the medication.

Upon doing some research I have discovered the following most common side effects that can accompany Testosterone Buccal:

(31)

• Irritation, Redness, Pain, Tenderness, Swelling, Toughening, or Blistering of Gums

• Stinging of Lips

• Toothache

• Unpleasant or Bitter Taste in Mouth

• Difficulty Tasting Food

• Headache

• Stomach Pain or Cramps

•  Acne

• Nervousness

• Swelling of Nose

Through extensive medical research, Testosterone Buccal tablets have not shown any proof of causing liver damage or liver cancer because of the way they are absorbed into the  body. However, prolonged use of synthetic Testosterone has  been proven to cause other serious medical issues such as

prostate cancer, therefore, it is highly recommended that you speak one on one with your doctor before committing to any  sort of drastic hormone treatment.

(32)

9 - Thyroplasty

For more serious cases of a failing masculine voice box,

surgery may be required. If you have extremely weak vocal chords, or have damaged your vocal chords somehow, then  you might consider looking into this type of surgery.

 You can watch a video that explains how the surgery is performed in the members area. Here is the direct link to the video: http://deepvoicemastery.com/members/?p=90 (you will need your login information in order to access the link)

Thyroplasty, also known as Laryngeal Framework Surgery, is the most becoming type of voice altering surgery, which is available to anyone willing to spend up to $5,000 USD.

(33)

The name of the surgery is self explanatory – laryngeal framework. This basically means your larynx cartilage and  vocal folds (vocal chords) are very strategically repositioned

in order to permanently change the sound of your voice.

The surgery itself is performed within approximately 1-2 hours with a 'next day' release. It involves a simple incision close to your larynx, which allows for a small chunk of 

thyroid being removed and then replaced with a small piece of plastic.

 When the surgery is performed, you (the patient) are put under local anesthetic; however you're never fully asleep  because you need to test the outcome of your voice

throughout the surgery. The piece of plastic is manipulated until your desired sound is reached.

Post Operation

There are few side effects with the Laryngeal Framework 

Surgery. You're not supposed to speak in extreme tones, such as yelling or whispering after the surgery. Otherwise, the

most common side effects are simply swelling, and discomfort... oh, and debt!

(34)

Personally, I wasn't even aware of the fact that I could get  voice surgery prior to my natural voice training, but now that

I've reached the results that I set out for, I couldn't be

happier that I didn't wimp out and spend the $5,000 on the procedure.

 You're probably wondering "why?" and the reason is simple – the time and effort I spent training my voice was a real growth experience for me. I gained a little more confidence in myself with each leap in progress. Even when I was testing different methods of voice training that didn't work, I didn't get discouraged, instead, I slowly began to accept myself for  who I am. In the past, I would’ve normally been frustrated or

disappointed with my failed practices, but instead, my  confidence grew, and so did the strength of my voice.

My voice is now stronger and more confident than ever  before!
