In the Modify Style dialog box, click the Format drop down, and then click Paragraph. Specify a value, in points, for "Spacing before" (or "Spacing after"). You may have to experiment a little to find the appropriate amount of spacing, but for 12 point type, 36 points might be suitable. Also, clear the "Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style" option. Click OK twice.
