Rule of 12 Breaths

Feel like you’re not getting enough AIR? Try invoking the “Rule of 12 Breaths”! While sitting down, breathe 3 times into your ribs with arms over your head. Then clasp your hands behind your back, push them down and breathe 3 times across your chest. Next wrap your hands around yourself in a hug and breathe into your back 3 times. Finally, roll down and place your elbows on your knees. Again, breathe 3 times and feel the expansion in your lower back, belly, and pelvis. After 12 breaths, you should feel a great expansion of breath all over your body! Any time your breathing is feeling shallow, just remember the “Rule of 12 Breaths”. You’ll be breathing much more efficiently without even having to get up!

The Right Attitude

Excellence > Perfection

We all strive to be EXCELLENT in our artistry. However, no artist, performer, or singer is PERFECT. It’s important to make the distinction between Excellence and Perfection. To be Excellent is to EXCEL. It is the ongoing state of excelling and doing well. In other words, Excellence is a process and not a final result. Perfection, on the other hand, is static. It is something that is already fully whole and complete. This is why Perfection is never attainable for any artist. Nor should we desire to attain it. Because if we were Perfect, we would be DONE. But, thankfully we can never be Perfect. So, our artistic and vocal journey continues every single day. Our Freedom comes from letting go of the desire to be perfect. Our Joy comes from the constant state of pursuing Excellence. And our Excellence comes from our Joy and Freedom to sing!
