Let’s talk about the authentic voice.
Authenticity has become somewhat of a ‘buzzword’ these days, with gurus and teachers telling people to “be authentic!” and “be yourself!”
And while the sentiment is beautiful, it often lacks practical guidance.
What does authenticity actually mean when it comes to your voice ?!
How do we actually learn to sing, speak, and express ourselves from a truly authentic place-not an idea, but as lived, embodied experience?
When I was studying in music school, I received incredible training in vocal technique. But something was missing. I wasn’t taught how to connect with my voice—my authentic, soul-level sound.
And I spent many years trying to understand how to find my own expression.
It wasn’t until I started learning and integrating my spiritual studies and yoga principles with systematic vocal technique that I began to understand that there is indeed a way to create the conditions for authenticity to arise within the individual.
Authentic expression is something we can cultivate!
This was a eureka moment!!
And it’s one that I am called to share with others, as I want to live in a world where more people feel free and tapped into their authentic expression.
These vocal tools that create the conditions for authenticity starts with awakening the physical body and the physical voice.
Authenticity isn’t just a mindset. It starts by grounding into the body. From there, we awaken the physical and energetic voice, especially through the throat chakra, which governs communication and self-expression.
When the throat chakra is open and flowing, your voice becomes a channel for truth, creativity, and healing.
Here’s what I’ve learned through years of holistic vocal work:
🔹 There is an authentic inner voice that becomes easier to hear when we attune our bodies and energy systems through sound.
🔹 When we follow our “authentic inner voice’s” guidance, we can create manifestation of what we desire in our lives, and experience creative and artistic flow state.
🔹 When you connect to your inner voice, your physical voice naturally becomes more powerful, radiant, and true.
🔹 We can create the conditions of a fully resonant, embodied voice by incorporating alignment and breathing principles into our singing practice.
🔹 Alignment and breath support create a fully resonant, embodied sound.
🔹 A resonant, embodied voice carries healing frequencies and emotional impact.
🔹 Your embodied voice becomes more than a tool—it becomes an extension of your soul.
Imagine what it would be like to sing, speak, and express from this deeply embodied place?!
Imagine being able to emanate the frequency of your soul through your voice and moving listeners in profound ways?
While the power of the voice can seem mystical at times, the process to arrive there is not mystical at all.
There is a systematic set of tools that ANYONE can use to tap into the power of their voice.
This isn’t some mystical dream. It’s a skill that can be cultivated with the right tools, practices, and support.
And that’s exactly what I offer in my voice work. If this journey speaks to you, here are a few ways to go deeper:
