Such great tips and workout, learned so much!
-I realized that I definitely enjoy the SOVT exercises the most.
-Learned the importance of taking it slow when working to get your voice back into shape and the exercises that are considered light and harder on the voice. It’s important to press (healthy pressure) but also lighten up and not be so heavy at once.

I love the talk of healthy eating being key in taking care of our voice. It’s like any instrument that it has to be cared for and this is such a huge part of that! Thanks for bringing that to light and not shying away from the topic.

Good video. I have so many vocalist that deals with throat issues. In our area we have had a drought in our area for several years, hardly any moisture, and lots of allergies. They still sing on Sunday, but I know that they are dealing with a lot. We use a lot of throat lozenges and lots of hot tea and water.

Oh man girl first trimester pregnancy is no joke! It’s amazing how we forget about it when we want another baby. And now your little man is here!

My takeaways
Overtraining leads to straining. More is not better.
Loved the analogy of SOVT exercises compared to doing a workout in the pool.
Also laying off and putting the pressure back on with different sets of exercises and relating it to interval training. Very helpful analogies for me.
