•Drink a lot of water – Water acts as a lubricant for your vocals. You need to consume at least eight glasses of water every day. Water helps in relieving your throat after a practice. But you have to make sure not to drink cold water because it can strain your voice and eventually damage your vocal chords if you drink one.
•Get enough sleep – Enough sleep is important for you to go through a hectic practice in singing. You cannot expect to perform your best in every practice if you do not have the energy to do so. You should at least get 8 hours of sleep every day to ensure that voice doesn’t get groggy.
•Join voice lessons – Enrolling in voice lessons can help you learn to sing. Professional voice teachers will teach you the basic in singing including proper breathing technique and correct posture. They will teach you how to improve your voice and how to take good care of your vocal chords.
•Love your own voice – Probably you have thought of imitating the voice of your singing idol. And you want to sound just like him, the way he performs on stage. This is not good. For you to learn to sing doesn’t work that way. It is not advisable to imitate the voice of other singers because you will not have your own identity and you will only hurt your vocal chords because the voice you are imitating might not be in your vocal range. I’m sure if ever you become famous you would want people to remember you because of your own voice and not anybody else.
•Refrain from eating dairy products on the rehearsal and performance day – if you eat a little too much of a dairy food on the day of your rehearsal or performance, you will feel like you cannot get out the phlegm out of your throat. Some of the food that build up phlegm are cheese and milk so better stay away from foods like these.
•Love your singing – If you really love singing and you have a passion for music then there is no doubt that you will improve your singing ability and probably make it big in the music industry someday. You just have to take a lot of practice and take extra effort in everything you do.
