How to Practice Singing
Monday Oct 09, 2023
Monday Oct 09, 2023
Have you ever attempted to practice singing and then realized you didn't quite know what to do? This is not an uncommon experience, even amongst more advanced singers and there is good reason for this. Singing is quite a mysterious sport. It's easy to think about it loosely as the same as practicing any other instrument, but that comparison might not quite hold up when we think about the journey of becoming a more accomplished singer.
In this episode of the Free Your Voice, Free Your Life podcast, Davin will give you practical advise about how to best practice singing so you can facilitate change within your voice. He'll also explain why a one-size-fits-all approach will never work and why the framework of yoga and meditation might be the best way to understand your voice journey.

Singing to Be Seen
Monday Oct 02, 2023
Monday Oct 02, 2023
Have you ever considered “being seen” as an important part of your voice journey? For most of us, the idea of having to confront the truth of “being heard” while we sing makes a lot of sense, but “being seen” can seem like a secondary component in our desire to show up fully and authentically in our voice. In this episode of Free Your Voice, Free Your Life, Davin dispels this myth and shares the importance of understanding the fullness of your presence when you use your voice and really sing. See, all fo the physical evidence for how your voice works in your body is discoverable by watching. An important task for singers is to learn to watch themselves so that others can do the same. It is a practice, but is the only real way to step into the full embodiment of your voice.

Want to free your voice? Want to live with more ease? Start by “befriending your body” says Elise Besler. This is a truly radical way of being in a culture that prioritizes thinking over being, but Elise is an expert at guiding folks into this experience through nervous system regulation.
In this episode of the Free Your Voice, Free Your Life podcast, Davin goes deep with his friend and colleague, Elise Besler who is a voice and embodied leadership coach. As a singer and performer herself, Elise knows first hand what it is to overcome the impacts of trauma and conditioning of experience to actually be able to stand up and grab the mic. Now she coaches leaders to do the same using the wisdom of the body as her guide.
In this conversation, Elise shares a bit about her own journey as a singer, performer and coach and she breaks down specific exercises that she now uses with clients so that they can understand the inherent wisdom of their body and the nature of their nervous system response in the face of perceived threat (hello, performance!) There are so many practical gems and reframes in this conversation, you might need to listen a couple of times to soak it all in.

If It Feels Good, It Sounds Good

Think of this like a universal law about the singing and the voice: If It Feels Good, It Sounds Good. Now I know that you don't trust that to be true and that there have been many times that you have felt good singing where are certain that it hasn't sounded good... but in this episode of Free Your Voice, Free Your Life, Davin explains to you why this has to be the truth and why knowing it, in your body is an essential step on your voice journey.
As humans, we are not conditioned to notice the truth and wisdom that our body offers. But, as singers, it is essential that we do in that the discomfort is always our best cue to uncover and discover pleasure. When we experience pleasure in our sound... regardless of our skill or ability, we then allow others to experience the same. It's a simple principle, but really knowing it take a willingness and bravery to confront the truth of our sound.
This episode is an invitation for you to notice what actually feels good, and an encouraging word to lean fully into it. The result will always be good sounds.
