Thank you for watching. Do you find the exercises easy? If so, write EASY in the comments below. If not, just ask me questions and I will help you make it easy.
I’m really looking forward too doing these every day. My voice is weaker than it used to be, I get too self conscious now, and if I crack, I try to focus on that, instead, and lose my confidence
Thank You, I needed this one
If I do something like this I don't know why I feel my head is dizzy 😫
Ms katarina. Do you have a program or certain excercises for MTD...All I have is you.... I keep missing your last post... about a program or something?
I know I spoke to you once before, which was a honor to speak with you....
So what you think.....
Easy
It seems like my voice is weak when I am mentally drained or nervous. It gets so soft that people can’t understand me. It’s intermittent though. I will practice! Thank you. ❤️
If you know that your voice is affected by your emotions and stress, then look at that side of your voice. Strengthen your resilience and emotional endurance.
Same with me 😂 and when I become happy i roar like lion but when I am in tension I can't even headed
Same but when Im at my house my voice sounds like a teacher’s voice (the volume of their voice)
But when im outside (,telling what I want in restaurant,talking to my classmates or random people),my voice is very weak
Maybe because im nervous/suppressing it thinking people might talk about me
Did it heal?
The more lifted the spirits, the stronger the voice
This has not only helped me in strengthening my voice but also controlling my breathing. Thank you Katarina
I am so happy to hear that! Glad it was helpful in multiple ways.
Puberphonia exercise
L.
How did it control your breathing?
Thank you for sharing this video. I recently had a severe GERD flare-up that had a dramatic impact on my voice. Even after treatment, I never got my vocal strength and clarity back. I've begun doing these exercises to help, and I was surprised to find them somewhat difficult. Obviously I'll pursue further speech therapy if I don't begin to see improvement, but this is a wonderful starting point. Fingers crossed I start to sound more like myself again soon.
Great video! One of the hardest things to hear is I need to practice twice a day! I know I can do it. Just gotta make myself bc it sure isn’t going to fix itself lol. Thank you again Katarina!
You can do it! It's only two times 10 minutes (or even less). That's it.
@@healthyvoicetips can you tell me when doing the 5 different pitches, is the vibration to come from the lips? Mine varies but I was curious. I start in the throat but eventually work it properly to be more front face. It’s wild how the muscles and brain work like that.
Op
I have myasthenia gravis and my voice has completely changed its so depressing i sound so awful singing now and i used to be decent. I wasnt great but could properly hold and copy notes. Hope this helps.
I am sorry to hear that you are dealing with myasthenia gravis. Exercise is important to keep the muscles working but too much exercise can cause fatigue. So the balance of exercising and resting is important. These exercises can help but will not solve the underlying problem. I wish you all the best.
Hello Katerina m a teacher and for two years i have facing this problem of roughness of voice while talking .i went to doctor he examine me n suggest me to take voice rest n medicine btafter doing everything my voice beecome normal bt as i start teaching it becomes rough plz tell me what i do now to improve my voice permanently
I suggest that you speak to a voice therapist who can teach you how to use your voice more efficiently when teaching.
Hi I have a question for you. Would you do these if your voice is going away or cracking? Or would you just rest the voice? Also what if you need to sing/perform when your voice is weak and cracking. How would you go about that?? (Ps it’s weak and cracking from talking too loud, not singing)
This video is about the strengthening part of the exercises. You can use the same exercises but with a different regime and with a different focus if working with an overworked or strained voice. You don't need to practice different pitches - focus more on the effort levels when doing the exercises.
In my head, I sound normal like other people but when I hear me in a recording, I sound like I got Down syndrome or something which I don’t
It is very common dislike your own voice when listening to it on a recording. There is actually a scientific and psychological explanation for this. Here are some shorts that I made on this topic: ruclips.net/user/shortsbk2AnjvAWyQ and ruclips.net/user/shorts6DO12P3WBZM
Thank you so much, Katarina. For me these exercises are not easy but my voice lacks stamina after surgery some years ago and I am trying to strengthen it so I will stick to this routine twice daily and hope I'm doing it right. I'll keep watching the video to make sure!
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you
Update?
As am watching this video I've recovered my vocal and my fans are happy that it wasn't a juju but lack of relax.
I used this video to heal myself and it worked
Thank you so much
Well done! Great to hear!
Mam I have a unclear voice many people don't understand my voice, so my question is that " is breathing from mouth affect voice"
Voice is more complex than that. Breathing is important but there are many other components to sound production. I suggest that you have your voice evaluated by a laryngologist and find the real reason why people cannot understand you.
Hello, Katrina-these are easy. My question is: Have you ever treated someone with a vocal tremor? I have been told that there is no cure for my tremor, but that I should get Botox injections for this twice a year. My intuition tells me that there must be a way to improve this through exercise and other possible ways. I feel that exercise helps cure many ills. I declined the Botox. What are your thoughts. Thank you! Jane
ME TOO I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM
I am sorry to hear about your vocal trouble. I have helped people with tremor in the past. The goal is to optimize the vocal function. I don't think there is a cure.
U r breathing in or out madam plz tell clearly
I am blowing out through the straw when making the sound.
Katarina...would these help lessen a nasal sounding voice??? If not, do you have a video for nasal voice exercises or any ideas how to fix that? Thank you.
I have some videos on the channel to learn how to control nasality of the sound.
Katrina, thank you for your videos, The higher notes (D) were very difficult. I could not find the 7 step voice-body-mind video you referenced in the above video. The problem I am concerned with weak, scratchy voice, sometimes when I attempt to project my voice even a little, it stops altogether !
Tom Z
Hi @Tom Z, I am sorry to hear that you are having voice issues. I demonstrated the 5 note exercise on a range that fits my voice, you probably need to move down and practice 5 notes in your comfortable vocal range. The link to the 7 step video is here: how2improvesinging.mykajabi.com/strong-voice-without-tension
Also, I am wondering if you have seen an ENT (voice specialist) to have your voice properly evaluated. If you have any further questions, let me know.
@@healthyvoicetips Good Morning Katrina,
Thanks for your response. Yes, about 4 months ago I visited an ENT due to a clogged ear issue. She observed my hoarse with pauses in my speech. After the vocal cord examination she said my vocal cords were not completing closing.
After searching RUclips I found your videos. I learned right away that I should not be constantly clearing my throat which I was doing a lot.
I think the STRAW PHONATION is beginning to help.
I am now going to link to the 7 step video.
Thanks Again
Tom X
My voice is really light i would like to deepen my voice in a more masculine way .will these exercises help?
Not necessarily, these exercises will condition your voice for more vocal demands. To deepen your voice, you would need to change the way how you use your voice (I am not talking about pitch but maybe vocal tract shape).
@@healthyvoicetips thank you mam can you suggest some exercises for it ?
Hi Katarina,
What muscles are we strengthening from doing the SOVT exercises? Is it the arytenoids?
I find when I over use my arytenoids, even by just bringing them together, my throat feels tired mostly under the chin area. It can even feel a little painful and sore! Is this normal?
You cannot isolate the work of one particular muscle when doing vocal exercises. They are all working, you are strengthening the whole system and coordination. Arytenoids are cartilages and there are several muscles that bring them together and they come together every time you use your voice. Soreness under the chin can pint to overworking your tongue muscles but again, it is just a guess and most likely, there are other muscle working too.
Thanks, voice has been on and off for last 10 years due to reflux and stress.
Will try these exercises and let you know if voice improves
Also, don't forget to keep managing the reflux and stress.
Thank you I tried you training this morning and I will continue to use this exercise for 2 weeks to see if it will help my voice. I am a trainer and no one can hear me when we are at live bands.
How is your voice doing? Are you still doing the exercises?
Hi Katarina, your videos are so helpful thank you so much! I have been diagnosed with reflux laryngitis and my voice is very weak. I can only speak very comfortably when my voice is placed in a particular way but I can only do that in quiet environments otherwise my voice box hurts. Consultant says my larynx is weak, so do you think these exercises will help? I am so upset and fed up of not being able to talk. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you, James

Hi! Will these exercises work for a paralyzed vocal fold?
No, I am sorry but they will not.
Where can I get that straw? Thanks
You can use any straw that you have at home.
Thank you so much! I appreciate this video!
Glad it was helpful!
Not easy for me , I am unable to prolong each node for more time 😢 so much of pitch breaks
It takes practice. Try to change something in the exercise - less air, less effort, different position of the jaw, tongue etc. Play with it. The process may be more important than the result.
I will try these.I love to sing however because of depression and feeling as tho my voice box felt strained,I haven’t in over a year up until recently.praying this will strengthen my voice on my new journey with building my voice back up
I wish you all the best!
Simple not necessarily easy for me in the higher octaves.
That is quite common - the higher you go, the more challenging it can be!
Katarina mam plz hlp me. From 2 years my voice when I rapping and singing in hard voice my voice got down . Like something stuck in my throat everytime I clear my throat. My voice feel like weak. It doesn't work properly. Plz mam i frm india🇮🇳.
Hi Panit,
We should produce a sound with ease and resonance. Sometimes we want to produce a big sound but we are making effort so we feel like we need to clear our voice or weak. We need to learn how to use the technique.

Do you recommend doing a 5-10 min vocal warm up before doing this in the morning? The sirens are part of your recommended vocal warm up video as well. How is this different then doing the warm up?
That is a good question. The goal of warm ups is different from the goal of strengthening exercises. I would say that the difference is in the frequency and length of the exercise. As you can see, both can use the same vocal exercises.
Hi Katarina, I have a question!
I'm an elementary school teacher and my voice goes whenever we start the new term. I can feel pain in my throat when I talk to them. I have to talk a lot and fairly loud, so I think I'm straining my voice every day without rest. I'm scared I'm going to permanently damage my voice. Can you advise what would be best? Thank you! :)
The very first step is to have your voice assessed by a laryngologist (that is an ENT doctor who specializes in voices) to make sure that your voice is ok. Then, I would suggest that you start working with a voice therapist (if the laryngologist recommends it). You need to first know how your voice looks and how it functions, then you can start finding solutions. If you have further questions, you can ask me via myhealthyvoice@gmail.com
Thank you so much! ❤️ I really appreciate the time you've taken to reply to me :)
Thank you Katerina. Your exercises are just what I've been looking for
Glad you like them!
Katarina,
Thank you so much for your awesome videos! The straw exercises and SOVT techniques have greatly improved my singing! ❤️
I will continue to follow you 😊
Thank you for your lovely comment!
Easy, thank you the first excerise really helped my dad...thank you.😂
Where do u get that straw??
You can use any straw that you have at home. You don't need the same straw.
Mam could you suggest any excercise to reduce bass from my voice my voice is so bassy
Raise your larynx, raise your tongue or spread your lips.
Where can I buy that cool straw
I don't even know where I bought it. Maybe in a dollar store. It really does not matter what kind of straw you have.
Katarina, quick question and I may have asked this before… is any air coming through your nose as you do these or is it all coming through the mouth and straw only? Thank you in advance!
The air is coming through the mouth and the straw. Nothing coming out of the nose. If air is escaping through the nose, either pinch your nose or try to figure out what you need to do to direct the air through the mouth (e.g. pretend you have a cold/blocked nose). I hope this helps.
@@healthyvoicetips Yes thank you!
Would I be correct in understanding these exercises serve a dual purpose: reducing tension as well as strengthening? Dealing with ongoing MTD, I’m beginning to know which exercises help relieved my muscle pain and tension in my larynx, and I guess I don’t want to rush into exercises that I’m not ready for. Thank you for all you do : )
Good question. The type of exercise that I use in this video are so called SOVT exercises that optimize the vocal function as you do them. Whether you use the straw exercises to strengthen or relax the voice depends on the width of the straw. So for strengthening exercises I would chose a straw with higher resistance.
I can’t use my voice. It’s too powerful. It comes across unliked in many different ways. So I do what the Army does I always whisper or speak softly. Never will I raise my voice again.
Im confused with the straw. Are you pushing air out to make the sound or just humming but with the straw in your mouth?
Would you recommend the first exercise (long notes) for someone trying to build up their head voice? I neglected my head voice register for years and am trying to find the best way to start strengthening it.
Yes, absolutely. Work on the range that feels weak. But make sure that you can produce those pitches without constriction.
Should we be attempting to go through our passagio when doing the siren sound? It appears you travel from your chest to your head voice during it. I am trying to smooth out this transition. Will the siren help? Thanks for the video and your coaching.
Following
Yes, you can cover as much or as little of your range as you want. Generally, sirens are amazing for smoothing out transition breaks.
@@healthyvoicetips thank you
@@healthyvoicetips Thank you!
This is quite helpful,, ma’am I have a question before start humming do I have to inhale deeply before doing each note or just breath in normally and then go through ?
I'm glad to help. A normal breath would be better. Let me know if you have more questions.
@@healthyvoicetips thank you so much for your reply… yes ma’am I have another question, basically I am a ventriloquist, and your exercises and tips are really helping me to enrich myself. Besides these, is there any additional exercises I can do that’ll help me more in my ventriloquism?
Hi! I have had a stutter since I was a kid and have noticed I have a lot of muscle tension when I speak and sing. It hurts when I talk and singing is tough with all the muscle tension. Will these exercises lessen tension when I talk too?
It is tough not to stutter without tension. It is affecting my singing!!
Hi Emily, how are you now? What have you tried that worked for you?
Easy and effective exercise - one question: why do I find it more difficult to sustain the lower notes?
Are you talking about lower notes than your speaking voice?
Hlo mam
I had vocal polyp surgery 15 days ago
Still no sound I can't speak can u help me out
I am going through puberty and my voice is so low that most of the people I talk to can't hear my voice , and I have to repeat my words each and every moment. It's getting very weak , also I have tried many remedies but nothing can be solved. Please help me , my voice is not loud enough 😭
Puberty can do a number on your voice. Things are changing in your throat and it takes time to find a balanced coordination. If there are any vocal exercises that you like, do them daily. They will give your voice a little bit of workout and an opportunity to figure out a better coordination. I don't think you need to "strengthen" your voice. Once things stabilize, you will be able to access your new strong voice.
Thanks for replying , anyways great video content
Hello Katarina, I've just gone through a surgical procedure to remove a polyp/nodule on my vocal, it's been 2 weeks since the surgery do u recommend these sovt for speech therapy? Can u suggest me some other techniques as I'm having issues resonating high pitches. Thanks.
SOVT or straw exercises can be used for vocal rehabilitation. I suggest that you speak to your therapist who can show you how to do these exercises and maybe other exercises too.
Hi. I used to sing professionally but have not used my voice regularly for many years. I have lost my range and some pitch and need to rebuild from scratch. When practicing the sirens through a straw, my voice ‘cuts out’ on the way up but is fine on the way down. I’ve only started the sessions a few days ago but was wondering if you have any suggestions or is this just something that will improve with practice? Thank you
That is very normal! Many people experience this. If you want, just do the sirens from top down and notice what you are doing to transition through the break (less air?). Then, start from the top and go back up. And practice in this way.
Thank you for great tutorial
Could we imitate the straw exercise by just pursing the lips?
EASY
Yes, it is possible but straws will give you more resistance.
I was told that my vocal cords are a little weak and I have some inflammation around them possibly due to acid reflux. Are these exercises good for me? I am getting hoarseness often after I got my Covid vaccine and developed a bad cold with it
These exercises will strengthen your weak voice. Talk to your doctor about how to manage your acid reflux and decrease inflammation. That may be also the cause of your hoarseness. Did the doctor suggest voice therapy?
@@healthyvoicetips yes but my copay is $80 for each of those visits and I can’t afford that so I was hoping I could watch your videos and do the exercises for the vocal cords. He prescribed omeprazole for acid Reflux but I prefer to use natural medicine so I am using other things.
Thank you so much for what you’re providing in this channel! I started doing this straw exercise & I have one question: when I do the siren or produce the sound of the notes, what amounts of air should flow from the straw? So I know if I’m doing the exercise right. I noticed I don’t flow much air through it.
Yes, that is the point - realize that you don't need that much air for some sounds. Definitely, you don't need too much air for straw exercises.
@@healthyvoicetips thank you 🙏🏼
Thank you, I wish I had found your channel much sooner.
Welcome! If you have any questions, let me know.
My voice sounds like a baby voice but lm 20 years old lm nolonger comfortable talking because people will laugh
Speak to your doctor and ask for a referral to see a laryngologist or voice therapist.
I underwent surgery for thyroid after that my voice is very very low... If I practice this will I get my original voice
I suggest that you work with a voice therapist. People after surgeries need individual treatment plan.
Really thanks u r great basically u r serving to human being b blessed
Thank you for your kind words.
Loved the exercises and the way you explained.
Thank you.
Happy to hear that you enjoyed the video.
Do you keep your nasal area open or closed during the exercises?
Madam, I went to a speech pathologist and she told me to practice vocal rest for 15 days...can I do lip sync?....today is the 5th day and I'm doing lip sync for all these days...
Is it okay??
I am not sure what lip sync means.
Ma'am, thanks so much for these exercises, but to do siren is still very difficult for me, pls help me out. Thanks
Keep practicing! Sirens are challenging for everyone first!
Great exercises. Trying get voice back after illness.
I am happy to hear that you are enjoying the exercises.
The C was difficult! The higher the more difficult for me. Is this normal for most people?
It's possible that your comfortable range is different than mine. And yes, for untrained people, the higher you go, the more challenging it can be.
Hard! They are easy to understand, but not easy for me! I have trouble make my voice loud enough to teach (my job before the stroke). Thanks for these exercises, and I’ll try them out for several weeks. Cheers! 😅
Start with a soft voice and go from there. Work with what you have. You have the challenge of working with muscles that have been affected by a stroke so don't be so hard on yourself!
Thank you Katarina, this is so helpful. Since coughing my way through Covid and Long Covid I’ve despaired over my weak voice and wondered if I’d ever sing again. Now I’m feeling hopeful! ❤
Covid ,long covid ? What a bullshit! Covid was made up disease to introduce fake pandemic. But coronaviruses are real ,over 150 types
Yes, COVID can really affect the functioning of the voice. I wish you all the best!
Do you recommend these exercises also for strengthening the singing voice? I mean as the only exercises to do and get a stronger singing voice?
Learning to sing requires more than one exercise. Singing is a learned skill, not a trick.
Hi Katarina, This was easy. Tku ! Just needed to check if you were blowing air gently while blowing the straw or just making the sound ?
Air through the straw while making the sound.
on the highest note, I found my voice cracking before the time was up! Ah!
That is absolutely fine. You may not need to hold it as long as I did.
I have had vocal dysphonia. I'm having trouble with these exercises. It's easier to do high pitches rather than ones even though I'm an alto. Been getting botox shots for a year that help.
If you are dealing with vocal issues and have been treated with Botox, there may be an anatomical difference that makes this exercise difficult for you. I suggest that you chose a type of exercise that you can do safely without extra tension. Start in your comfortable range.
I moved from a dry climate to a humid climate and lost my voice. My health is not changed that much. I no longer can sing in the choir please help.
First, have your voice checked by a laryngologist. Humid air should not be a problem.
Is it OK to continue with these straw exercises when the voice is "unsteady?" Your voice is consistently on note, mine wavers and is halting.
Yes, it is ok to continue. Use less effort or less air to see if it makes any difference. Or add more air and engage the big body muscles for more support and see if that improves your voice.
Dear Katerina could you please teach a class on how sing the Cuperto exercise ?
Tony

I don't know that exercise.
Easy easy gg
😉👍
I can't thank you enough for this exercise. I'm recovering from flu n now my voice is extremely very weak. I notice during the exercise, I could hear a creak (like the sound of a door that needs oiling😂) in my vocal notes. But after the exercise, it faded away.
I am happy to hear that the exercise helped. I hope your voice is feeling fine now.
easy! Thank you! from an old granny with a crackly voice
With pleasure!
Remarkably fine but simple exercises. Thank you - Ananda
Hi Ananda, sometimes the simplest things can be very effective.
Easy! I have had 2 cerebellum strokes. The 2nd one left me with dysarthria. You help my weak voice!
Happy to hear that you found the video helpful.
Wow! I had two cerebellum strokes, and I noticed my voice got weaker. The doctor ignored me. Maybe I have to find someone who listens to me. Thanks, this comment helps me.
@@Lupita311 We gotta share what works for us so others can try it!!
Easy
Good to hear!
Easy
👍
I love you! I noticed when I-got to D on the straw training the sound quality wasn’t as strong as the other keys.
That is normal. A shift in how you make that sound.
I hope this helps me. Singing was one of the only joys left in my life.
I had two bouts of serious esophagitis r/t GERD. I also had sinus surgery in 2017. Since, then my voice seems ruined and weak. It makes me very sad.
Easy
Excellent!
Easy
Excellent!

That is great!

That's good.
Is it’s normal to crack while doing sirens?
Absolutely. It is a learned skill not to crack.
C and D very difficult..to go al the way you do.😢
Use pitches that are within your range. You do not need to do the same pitches as I do in the video.
Easy
💗👍
soon i will apply to your vocal freedom coaching, I am almost reaDY!
i will go see a doctor first.
I am happy to talk to you whenever you are ready.
Easy peasy. Thank you. I am a 75 yr old who has been wWriting and singing covers for the past 2 1/2 years. I have been told that I have a weak voice and also a wobbly voice. I am more aware of the latter than the former. Do you think these exercises will help both of these “conditions.” Thank you.
My believe is that there is always room for improvement. I am not sure about eliminating wobbly as that can be a sign of an aging voice but strength can be improved at any age.
Thank you, I so enjoy this video and am on day 2 and hope to make it for at least 21 days! Thank you!!!!!
I am happy to hear that you enjoyed the video.
Thanks for the tips. I've been trying singing with my lips partially closed to strengthen my voice, but I may have put too much strain on my throat...I'll try these tips once I've recovered.
Great advice for strengthening your voice
Thanks for listening
Very good exercices. I also do vowels exercices it helps too :)
That's great!
Can you teach how to sing with diaphragm
Please🥺?
I have a video on that too. Just check out my channel.
I think the exercises are easy. I am trying to get back into singing and finding certain notes in my upper mid-range are weak and shaky. To work on these particular notes, should I do the straw exercises an octave above what you demonstrate?
When i do my siren exercise my craks blocking n not allowing me to go higher pitch.. Pls advice me
You can try a few things: use less, air, allow the larynx to rise, make the sound more "whiny", use head and neck anchoring, use a high tongue position. See if any of these help.
Do u have any videos on that please?
Very peaceful and seems like a very great combo,
Straw phonation and
Pitch Slides
Hello, Katrina I have a question how long dose It take to see improvement ?
It depends what you are dealing with.
Thank you.
I'm on day 3 and this is still very hard for me, but I'm determined. My voice tends towards nasality and I'm probably trying too hard to eliminate that. But I always feel good after these exercises, so I'm grateful to you for the instructions. Take care :3
I am happy to hear that you like the exercise. I am not sure if that is the right exercise for making your voice less nasal. But if you feel good after the exercise, it means that it is doing something beneficial. Keep going.
@@healthyvoicetipsThanks for replying! Yeah, I also do other exercises that deal with nasality specifically, but I've really needed to strengthen my voice in order to do them effectively. So I will definitely keep going!
It's good if you have a few different exercises, each addressing a different goal. You got this!
