All about your voice
There is a belief that we are what we eat. I want to go one step further. Are you what you cannot eat? For example if you have specific food allergies is that because you have more than simple reaction to something in the food. I don’t know. I was listening to a podcast where food came up as a question in the discipline of voice. There is another field that I know absolutely nothing about despite having used my own for many decades. But if you change your diet you can also change characteristics of your voice. Apparently. I have not tried this. In fact the podcast dealt with the reactions of a young mother to what she was eating based on the reactions and allergies of her new child. Wait? Better thing? Then we really are what we eat. Or in the case of a new mother your child gets what you eat in all senses. Anyhow I’m going to listen to the more content just to see if I can learn some of the things that I never learned in the school. As for singing I’ve already tried that route and I will not be making it part of my lifestyle. It is so embarrassing to stand in front of a group of strangers and let them see just how unprofessional you are. And I am not talking about karaoke. Never did that either. What I want to learn more about is the way that voice sounds are produced. And here I realize that I know nothing at all. Other than something about vocal cords which I am supposed to be able to see if I look in the mirror but I do not. I will have to find someone else with more understanding of the science. It is a science right? I mean we all have a voice but they seem to have some people that know a lot more about it than the rest of us. Are they teachers? Usually not. They have found other ways to get through life.
