Clearing Your Throat

This may seem like a simple thing to do but in order to get the most out of your singing voice, it is important to be able to do this correctly. In fact, there are some who say you should never directly clear your throat.

Brett Manning, the creator of Singing Success, suggests the best method is to clear your throat without irritating it. To do this, a gentle ‘whispered cough’ is often used by those who use Singing Success, as this clears the mucus that builds up in your throat but doesn’t turn your voice coarse.

However, sometimes the mucus production can be in overdrive and so the best way to deal with that is cut up a lemon into quarters. Put one quarter in a tall glass of water and sip it over 20 minutes. If you’re performing, make sure you have this nearby on stage. This should definitely cut through the majority of the mucus giving you a clearer sound.

The last tip that definitely co-incides with using Singing Success would be to avoid dairy products as much as possible during the day of the performance…especially Cheese!
