Vowels Are the Enemy | Spasmodic Dysphonia Exercises

Vowels Are the Enemy | Spasmodic Dysphonia Exercises

Today we are tackling one of the biggest tests for Spasmodic Dysphonia:

Vowels.

Even saying the word “vowels” can be a problem, so this session jumps right into the challenge.

We start with “me me” and “nim nim” warmups, then move into counting drills, head voice, mask placement, Forebrain buzz awareness, and vowel work with A, E, I, O, and U.

The focus is breath support, diaphragm power, holding the vowel as long as the breath allows, and trying to keep the voice from getting hijacked by Spasmodic Dysphonia.

Also included: pepperoni, cold pool water, ASMR coffee, and Y being off drinking again.

Reminder: I am not a doctor, speech therapist, or professional voice coach. I’m just a guy with Spasmodic Dysphonia sharing the exercises and techniques that have helped me.
