Q&A for How to Exercise Your Voice

Sure. Bananas should not negatively impact your singing voice.

Keep praticing with your soft voice. As it develops, slowly practice voice projection. It will gradually develop into a good soothing yet audible voice.

Drink warm liquids, such as tea with honey, and try not to talk for a while. Do these exercises again and see if it helped.

You should use the easiest pitch that you are comfortable with and try to lower your singing voice.

Try exercise scales and listen to other people's recordings to correct your pitch.

Honey and lemons coat the throat well; drink plenty of warm fluids such as tea and room-temp water.

Train with a qualified professional to develop your tone. In addition, try tHerbal Throat Gargle, which will help your vocal chords relax before practicing or performing. The recipe for the Herbal Throat Gargle is: 2 teaspoons of lemon, 1 tablespoon of oregano, 4 sprigs of mint, and 1 teaspoon of paprika dissolved into water. Gargle for 3-5 minutes and spit out.

A soft (not whispered) "v" sound will give your vocal cords a wonderful massage. Do not whisper, yell, talk on the phone, or sing while your vocal cords are healing.

Find a small group of people that are your close family or friends. Let them know that you are still practicing, and have them act like an audience. Ask for tips or criticism after, if you feel up to it. Remember, you can do this! If they are true friends they will respect your singing and your courage.

There's not really much to help with that. You should embrace the fact that you have a naturally deep voice as many would love to have that. Don't try to sing out of your comfort zone as that can sometimes lead to damaging your vocal chords.

If by blurry you mean unfocused, you need to shape the vowels. Use Italian vowel sounds. Yawn to open the throat, flare your nostrils and raise the soft palette. Keep the tongue relaxed down and forward. Practice singing vowels only, on a scale. Imagine the sound is in the middle of the mouth -- keep it out of the throat.

Lip trills are the answer. When you feel that you are having trouble with high notes, do not sing them, lip trill!

No, it takes a lot of time and a lot of practice.

Start in the middle of your comfortable range and sing down the scale. Stop on your lowest good note. Go back up to one note below your previous starting place and repeat. You need to practice this often, daily if possible. You can stretch your range, but be patient and realistic. There is a real limit to how low you will be able to go. If your current range is less than 3 octaves, then daily practice will increase this.

Try clearing your throat and rubbing the front center of your neck with your index finger and your middle finger.

Drink water and take breaks when you start to feel your voice getting strained.

Don't breathe out so much as you're singing, and try using less breath as you sing.

No, just be sure to drink lots of water. It's also helpful to not eat before you sing.

That might just be how your voice is. You're probably an alto, which is totally fine for a girl. If you really want to sing high, get a vocal coach and carefully extend your range, or just work on songs within your range. Adele songs are great for altos.

Drink water and make sure to drink warm liquids and do the exercises above.

You can, as the milk may cause complications for your voice and your vocal chords. Please be careful and considerate of the temperature of the tea, as well.

Some of the most famous singers also stutter, and their main advice is to practice.

No. It will affect your lungs, and that prevents you from breathing properly for singing. Breathing is important because it helps your tone, pitch, and chord length!

Usually in the middle of the day. That is when you are most active. Activeness helps when you are trying to sing. Don't do it when you are tired or you'll sound bad.

There are many ways to overcome this problem, including: Taking deep breaths before you speak; loosen your jaw by gently opening your mouth as wide as you can and then releasing it; and letting your jaw flop closed. Practice opening your mouth when you speak, forming each sound clearly.

A lot of times people just aren't confident enough to reach those high notes so they shy away and that's when it cracks. What my voice teacher used to tell me was to attack the high notes. If it helps practice in private, it sometimes helps if no one is watching you. Also when you are approaching a high not take your forearms and put them in front of you then put one hand over the other in a circular motion go from slow and go faster the higher you get. Try leaning forward while doing this. You can also try whatever hand motions work best for you whether that be reaching or pushing or just whatever. The most important thing is don't let those notes intimidate you!

Practice breathing every day make sure that when you exhale your chest doesn't collapse. On a very loud note (fortisimo or more like ffff) humming the note for a split second and then singing it sometime helps you project the note.
