Step by Step
Instructions for Clearing Your Throat before
Singing
How do I Clear My Throat for
Improving My Singing Voice?
Singers and musicians alike are to me
no different than any athlete or really, any person. We in
our daily lives need to communicate with our body and mind
in order to strengthen and improve our functionality.
Practice makes perfect and to me, visualization is key.
With these elements comes a key tip
and that is using proper techniques. There is a right way
and a wrong way to do things, and the wrong way can lead to
injury, or at the least poor performance on stage, while the
right way will lead to functional strength and
conditioning.
Breathing methods and techniques along
with proper ways of clearing your throat will help the young
singer with hitting high notes, singing in scales, and with
overall vocal performance. With the proper know how you will
gain the confidence to go into any local or junior
auditions, talent shows, or even karaoke competitions and
really show your stuff.
How Do I Clear My Throat for Singing
Improvement?
So what are the correct ways of throat
clearing? Start with a really modest cough, one that should
make very little sound. Dispose of any expelled mucus (In
other words, spit it out), then continue until your throat
is completely clear.

If you still have too much build up,
try some lemon juice in water (not ice water). Sip this
drink slowly for a period of a half an hour and see if that
helps. If you still have too much mucus build up, you may
want to consider changing your diet.
Avoid the Milk
Eating things like dairy products can
lead to too much mucus in the body, and will thus affect
your singing ability. Reaching those high notes on the upper
end of the scale is challenging enough without having a
clogged throat to hinder your ability. Talent does not help
if your voice is not clear.
Get Fresh Air into Your Lungs Through
Breathing Methods
When it comes to breathing, you want
to breathe like you're doing for a dive. Breathing in and
out fully and completely will allow more fresh air into your
lungs, and drive out the stale old air from them as well.
Breathing deep helps to make your lungs stronger and will
extend your lung capacity. This is great for hitting and
holding those long tough notes. You will come across as
relaxed and confident to your audience when you breathe
correctly.
Exhaust all Avenues
Keep in mind that there is always more
than one way of doing things, and if you find that you still
can't get your mucus levels down, you may be doing something
unconsciously and should consult a doctor. Things like
smoking or being around allergens can add to your breathing
and singing problems.
Just remember to practice consistently
and continue learning how to do things the right way to
avoid vocal problems later on. This way, improving singing
voice has never been easier! Now
that you have studied this important tip for a clear voice,
you can have Brett Manning teach you everything you always
wanted to know about speech level singing.
