This is NOT a lecture! As a previous smoker myself I understand the challenge of quitting.
In this episode I go deep into my relationship with cigarettes and alcohol, the affects they both have on your voice and how to manage your voice as a smoker and what to expect if you are able to quit.
I include some vocal therapy exercises to use when you quit and experience a detox after smoking and share tips on how to rebuild your voice and accept your new and improved instrument! (See the weekly vocal workout subscription if you'd like more detailed exercises)
This episode definitely contains swears and is one of my more passionate and personal episodes. My goal is to support you through any transitions with smoking and encourage you to do whatever you choose, not to lecture anyone about their personal choices.
If you are trying to quit here are a few resources that really helped me
I read the book by Alan Carr, Easy Way to Stop Smoking: https://www.allencarr.com/easyway-stop-smoking/how-to-quit/
Also the Alcohol Experiment was fascinating https://learn.thisnakedmind.com/the-alcohol-experiment-registration
For vocal rehab, the Singing Straw is a fantastic tool, use this link and promo code rockit10 to get a discount on your purchase.
If you are trying to quit I commend you and I'm here to support you! Good luck and congrats on your choice! Please let me know if I can help you with your voice in any way as you go through this process. [email protected]
