I have been in love with the human voice since before I could speak. I started teaching people how to sing in 1989, first in private vocal lessons. Now, full time, for the last 11 years I remind people how to use their authentic voice naturally-to sing, speak, tone and heal-in workshops across the country. In 1992 I earned a degree in Voice and Music Education from Indiana University.

Through my own vocal adventures and further studies, I have rediscovered my own true authentic voice. As I continue to study and grow, so does my work. Early on, when my voice students started healing from all kinds of things, just by learning how to sing, I realized how important an instrument of peace we have within our own bodies.

One of the many side effects of my work is the wonderment of my own consistent good health for the past decade. I don’t even catch colds.

“Sing For Your Soul!” & “Harmonies of Healing” came from my inner knowledge that vocalizing: singing, toning and speaking, is not some mysterious gift given to a chosen few. It is for Every Body. Let me remind you how good it feels to SING. Let me share with you how to use your own instrument as one of meditation and stress relief. My mission is to help others rediscover the power of their own beautiful, authentic, healing voice. Singing makes me happy and keeps me young and healthy.

The Voice is the breath of GOD made audible when allowed to flow naturally from the large abdominal muscles (original source of sound in an infant). The breath is deep. Conversly when breath is shallow the throat muscles tighten to producde sound. Singing and speaking with shallow breathing and tense throat muscles can result in stress.

Rediscovering my authentic, natural, healing voice has been an exciting adventure of motion and emotion, of sound and soul, of healing and hope. Through these adventures I’ve gained insight, lost weight, feel younger and stronger and have become peace-filled. I have found this way of life to be liberating, enlightening and ultimately necessary for my physical, emotional and spiritual growth.

Now I share this adventure with you, Enjoy the ride. Blessings, Lauren
