The Gentle Art Of Speaking Up

Heather-Maîr gently introduces the foundations of assertiveness, inviting you to explore the roots of your beliefs and offering practical ways to begin resetting your boundaries.

This course includes three calming audio modules and a guided meditation, with journaling prompts offered along the way to support deeper reflection.

This is a quiet, meaningful step toward something important: finding your voice and learning to speak with both kindness and clarity.

The Gentle Art of Speaking Up isn’t about being loud or forceful. It’s about reconnecting with your authentic voice and beginning to use it in ways that feel natural, respectful, and true to you.

Leçon 1: Where Did My Voice Go?

Welcome to this course. In this first session, we begin to reflect on your early voice story and the beliefs you may hold about your right to be heard.

Through gentle reflection and calming breathwork, we’ll start to reconnect with your natural vocal presence, quietly laying the foundation for confident, compassionate self-expression.

Leçon 2: The Polite "No"

In this session, we begin to explore the real meaning of assertiveness—what it truly is, and what it is not. Assertiveness isn’t about aggression or conflict; it’s about honesty, self-respect, and clarity.

We take a closer look at the art of setting respectful boundaries and start practicing one of the most powerful tools in assertive communication: the simple, calm, and clear “no.”

You’ll be gently guided to speak this small but meaningful word out loud, in a way that feels grounded and kind, both to yourself and to others.

Leçon 3: My Voice, My Right

In this session, we explore how to ask for what you need, with both courage and softness.

You’ll be guided through practices that support grounding and gentle vocal release, helping you speak from a place of calm confidence.

This course is designed to support gentle transformation, no pressure, no perfection. Just quiet, meaningful steps toward confident and authentic self-expression.

Leçon 4: The Gentle Art Of Speaking Up | Guided Practice

This session is designed to support your transformation toward gentle assertiveness through a series of affirmations, relaxation techniques, and positive suggestions.

Please ensure you are not driving or operating any machinery or equipment while listening.
This is an eyes-closed meditation, best experienced in a quiet, comfortable space where you can fully relax.

Reviews

Thank you, Heather; this was very well done. I especially enjoyed the meditation

Heathers calm guidance is so soft and gentle, it acknowledges where you are and invites you to cultivate an intentional beautiful relationship between you and your voice. Love your voice.

My experience of Heather’s soothing voice and gentle invitations to relax brought me into a deeply receptive state. Her suggestions for improving individual mastery of clear and kind assertiveness were easy to apply, as well as thought provoking. I especially enjoyed her guided relaxation exercise on Day 4. Much appreciation for offering self-worth affirmations and referencing Louise Hay’s powerful mirror work practice!
