Treating the Voice on an Emotional Level

After  years of working with singers I find it essential to address vocal challenges at  ALL levels. So much of singing is mental/emotional, and in order to really free  the voice, you have to get to the root of the emotional block. Usually stifled creativity, or just plain old shutting down of the ability to 'speak one's truth,' leads to constriction and an inability to release the voice, both  emotionally and physically. 

It's  like peeling an onion - you just compassionately and intuitively chink away at the armor that has been built up over the years that masks true feelings and the ability to express those feelings. Very fascinating!
