Is jaw tension holding back your singing voice?

If your voice has been feeling tight, tired, or restricted, you’re not alone. As singers (and especially as moms), we often hold more tension than we realize—and it can keep our voices from sounding free and resonant.

In this episode we’ll cover:

  • Common causes of jaw tension
  • How it can affect your singing
  • Easy exercises to release jaw tension

Timestamps:
(3:14) My story with jaw tension and what helped me
(7:48) Common causes of jaw tension
(10:54) How jaw tension affects singing
(12:43) Exercise 1: Chewing & humming
(14:10) Exercise 2: Masseter release massage
(18:07) Exercise 3: “Yah” exercise for tongue–jaw independence

I hope you have fun finding new vocal freedom as you release your jaw!

Blessings,

Sarah 🌟
