Monday Reset: Beginner Voice Drills for Spasmodic Dysphonia

Monday Reset: Beginner Voice Drills for Spasmodic Dysphonia

It’s Monday. It’s a brand new month.

That makes it a pretty good time to stop saying “I should start doing voice exercises” and actually start.

This is a beginner-friendly Spasmodic Dysphonia exercise session built around the basics: posture, breathing, smooth airflow, humming, mask placement, straw-in-water glides, mini sirens, and descending hums.

We work through light and easy exercises designed to help find a smoother way into the voice without forcing it.

In this episode:

  • posture reset
  • breathing from the lower region
  • smooth connected airflow
  • finding optimal pitch through humming
  • mask placement and forward focus
  • straw-in-water voice glides
  • low-to-high “who” glides
  • high-to-low “who” glides
  • mini sirens
  • descending hums
  • getting back up when the voice slips

I also talk about the Fort Brain device, resonance, and why the buzz comes from your own voice when you’re placing it correctly.

I’m not a doctor, speech therapist, or vocal coach. I’m your friend with Spasmodic Dysphonia doing the exercises with you.

Light and easy. Don’t force it. Find the mask. Start here.
