There’s no “hack” for healing. If you lose your voice, whether from fatigue, illness, or overuse, three things are critical:

Water
Rest
Time

Those three things are what your voice (and any part of your body) needs to repair.

Interoception: the understanding of your body’s internal senses, both physical & emotional. Another of our senses, this is a learned skill that develops as we grow. It is our ability to feel internal sensations—physical ones, like hunger, or your heart beating, and emotional ones, like fear or excitement.

This one is often tougher for performers, but no less important. Without interoception, we can’t hone our ability to sense energy shifts in ourselves or our scene partners. We also need this skill to help us balance air pressure used during singing or speaking.

We can practice interoception through Meisner techniques, breathwork, and mindfulness practices like meditation.

Proprioception: the body’s ability to sense its own position and movements in space. This is one of your body’s senses (yes, there are more than 5!). It’s a highly complex automatic process, and when we perform, we use it in spades: in dance numbers, blocking, stage combat, any type of movement on stage, we have to be aware of our movements.

This includes things like knowing how fast or slow to move and how much force to use, but it also comes into play when we are singing. A singer needs to know what stance or movement in the lower body will lend the most support in a given moment. They need to be able to move the head, neck, and shoulders and still adjust the jaw and tongue into position for optimal singing. And they need to know how to do it dynamically, moment to moment, as they move about the stage.

We can practice proprioception in dance classes, yoga practices, tai chi—and physical practice that combines movement, balance, and coordination.

@meisnerinmusic is a total game changer. The concept of taking #meisnertechnique and applying it to acting through song requires us to find unconventional partners for repetition, because when we sing, especially in auditions, we often find ourselves without an actual living, breathing partner. Meisner in Music offers us three partners—the room (exercise in the power of observation), the music (exercise in the power of listening) and our own bodies (exercise in presence and acceptance).

In this reel, I’ve highlighted when I was implementing each. If it’s something you’re curious about and want to learn more, reach out—I’d love to work with you!

Not a single person. by @integrated_artistry

Here’s the thing: I’ve been a voice teacher for over 15 years, but so much of traditional vocal technique can’t live in a vacuum. I was frustrated by the fact that my students often did not have the “light bulb” moments I tried to lead them to, and then I realized that most of my own light bulbs were sparked by making connections to things I’d learned OUTSIDE of the voice studio.

My 20+ year yoga practice, as well as my journey to complete my 200 hour yoga teacher training, and my discovery of the Meisner acting technique and @meisnerinmusic are what connected the dots.

Here’s a visual of the ways my three favorite modalities intersect.
