It doesn't matter who you are or what you do, chances are you use your voice all day long. Everyone knows how important it is to exercise your body, but few realize that the voice also needs exercise. Before the voice exercises, it is best to relax your body with a gentle massage and slight stretching. You can do the eleven exercises presented in this article in the privacy of your shower or any other place where you can comfortably relax your physical and vocal tension.

Steps

1. 1 Massage the base of your tongue, in the soft area, just behind your chin. Place your index fingers on the top of your chin. Open your mouth. While your index fingers are on your chin, use your thumbs to massage the base of your tongue.
2. 2 Ease the tension on your mandibular joints. To find them, place your index and thumb on your lobes and open your mouth. The space that forms on your cheeks is your mandibular joint. Use your fingers to massage your joints. Open your mouth wider and massage deeper with each breath.
3. 3 Stretch your tongue in all directions.
4. 4 Build funny faces as many as possible! To relax the muscles in your face.
5. 5 Massage your neck and shoulders. Circular motions will be very effective.
6. 6 At the same time, make funny sounds and jump to weaken other areas of your body.
7. 7 Yawn several times to open the back of your throat.
8. 8 Beat in any key for 10 seconds or more, feeling the tickling sensation on your lips and nose.
9. 9 Make the sound "brrrrrr". In any key. Move within your audio range.
10. 10 Emit an open sound "ahhh" by moving through the audio range.
11. 11 Sing or hum your favorite song.

Tips

• Keep your back straight during exercise. Maintain correct posture.
• Practice regularly.
• Sounds "maah" or "aaahhh" when inhaling, massaging or stretching are very effective.
• If you feel uncomfortable or painful during the massage, continue and try to release the tension.

Warnings

• Most people experience tension, especially in the tongue, jaws, face, throat or shoulders, and do not realize how much it affects their vocal cords.
