Muscle Tension can exist in the jaw. We hold more tension there than we think! Imagine holding tension in one of the strongest muscles in our body! Our strongest muscles are not necessarily our biggest muscles. If we could be more aware of this tension, imagine what the release of this tension would do for us? We have enough stress in life, but if we become more aware of where we are holding it in our bodies, we can actually change the way we feel and act throughout our entire day.
Join me here in this short episode to hear more about jaw tension!

Is Optimal Pitch something we all need to use? Well, no, but hey why not know what it IS? I would say, as a speech-language pathologist, anyone with a voice disorder SHOULD know what it means and how to find their own optimal pitch. It's especially important to use it if you are using a pitch in your speaking voice that results in a voice quality that you don't like, causes you further vocal fatigue, or abuses your voice. In that case, FIND IT! Practice, practice, practice, and listen to yourself. You can record yourself reading a passage, in conversation , or just reading simple sentences.
DM if you try it and tell me what you think! Let me know if I can help!
