Tough day at work causes you to speak faster and with more intensity, study finds

How a tough day at work can change your VOICE: Stressful experiences throughout the day can cause you to speak faster and with more intensity by the evening, study finds

• Experts have analysed recordings of people speaking every evening after work
• People talked quicker with more intensity when they’d experienced more strains
• Stress activates the sympathetic nervous system leading to hormone production
• This leads to bronchodilation, higher breathing rates and changes in our voice
