1.Practicing Vocal and Breathing Exercises
Pant at different speeds to build breath control. Start with short, fast panting for about 30 seconds and then do slower medium panting for another 30 seconds. Finish with 30 seconds of low, deep panting. Changing the depth of your breaths and the speed of panting will give you more control over your breathing. you should feel air moving deeply through your lungs when you do the deep panting
2.
Practice blowing out a single breath in controlled bursts. Learn to take deep breaths before speaking or singing so you don’t run out of air in the middle of a line. Extend your arm and hold out your index finger. Take a deep breath and imagine your finger is a candle that you need to blow out 5 times. Release the breath in 5 bursts so they’re equal in length and power.[2]
- Doing this exercise will give energy to your breaths. This can prevent your voice from sounding flat or boring as you speak or sing.
