Hi Kristy: Great question. I find that I actually will do both depending on which is most convenient. But I think the majority of the time I breath through my mouth. I don’t think there’s really a best way. However, one tip I will give is to inhale quietly. Inhaling quietly though the mouth seems to keep your throat more open and relaxed and combined with the help of the low breath, seems to help keep the larynx lower too. Thanks for the question.
Hi Chuck! I love your videos! Question: When you breathe, should you breathe in through the nose? Does your voice work better breathing through the nose rather than through the mouth?
Thank you,
Kristy
