LESSON 2 · The Daily Voice Warm-Up
Daily Voice Practice
Treat your morning voice routine as regular vocal self-care:
- Water before coffee — lead with a glass of water so your folds are rehydrated before your first cup
- Gentle onset — start with humming, progress to soft speech, then normal conversation. Never force the voice cold
- Shower humming — steam hydrates your throat while humming warms the voice. Two benefits in one habit
- Time buffer — if you have early meetings, build in voice activation time so you are never speaking cold
