In a world where the use of the written word is omnipresent, especially on a professional level, calling your loved ones is not always a reflex. Yet "with the voice, we will send a musicality, an intonation", explains Léonard Anthony, hypnosis practitioner and specialist in fatigue management, Thursday in "Without appointment", on Europe 1.  

INTERVIEW

Send SMS, write to groups on applications like Messenger or WhatsApp or even check their emails. All these practices illustrate the major place of writing in our lives. But during confinement, this way of communicating is not enough for Léonard Anthony, hypnosis practitioner and specialist in fatigue management, guest of Sans rendez-vous, on Europe 1. For him, call his relatives to make them hearing our voice is essential, especially for the most isolated. "Writing is great because we can send a little message. But [with] the voice, we're going to send a musicality, an intonation," he explains on Thursday.

"A smiley is not the same as a laugh"

"Even in the silence between two words, there is a presence that unfolds. These are things you hear over the phone," he adds. Laughter is also more evocative by phone or video. With these communication tools, "we can share a moment of laughter", he insists. "A smiley is not the same thing as the burst of voice in a laugh. It is really a heat that will unfold at that time."

"Create time spaces to be with your loved ones"

Contacting those close to you also contributes to the goal of "reconnecting with life", which Léonard Anthony encourages. According to him, this objective represents "a great source of defatigation".

Despite sometimes taking telework or even schooling at home, Léonard Anthony encourages people to take the time to talk with their families. "You have to accept that you are in an unusual situation" with confinement, he believes, "and also create time spaces to be with your loved ones." And to conclude: "Otherwise time flies between our fingers, and what we could profit there completely escapes us."
