Q & A: BREATHING

April 08, 2019 in breath workshops, q&a

Question:

I’ve enjoyed practising breathing with my tummy, and a question came up! Do you only breathe like this when singing, or has it become integrated into your life?

I’m noticing that after I practice my body doesn’t know when to stop breathing like this. When I’m doing other things, I feel a funny little flip into diaphragm breathing.

INTRODUCING: BREATH OF LIFE WORKSHOP

February 02, 2019 in breath workshops

While sitting in meditation at a Vipassana retreat in India in 2014, I had a profound experience. For the first time in my life, I felt my breath breathing my body without any direction from my mind. This sensation was new to me; I realised how much I had been controlling my breath and trying to control my life.

In silent presence, I see, hear and receive clearly. It’s a known being I trust, an endless ocean, vast, cool and nourishing.

STRAW PHONATION AND VOCAL EXERCISES

Straw exercises are a SOVT - Semi Occluded Vocal Tract exercise. This means that you are partially blocking the vocal tract when singing or speaking. Humming and exercises with your tongue out are also doing the same.
