Nutrition and Hydration
Eating gives you the fuel to stay focused and keep going under pressure. Healthy food of a single ingredient (so fruit, vegetables and so on), is preferable to processed additive-ridden ready-meals which can affect your gut and your brain. There’s a huge link between one and the other, and if you eat like a slob, you’re likely to get brain fog … as well as enjoy the knock-on effects of being overweight (and the issues that leads on from that, including problems breathing), and more directly for the voice a poorly-performing or poorly-coated vocal fold system.
More long-term ways to cut anxiety:
· Exercise, which leads to sleep
· Social media detox
· Your diet – less alcohol or sugar fluctuations
Create some ‘performance routines’ of positive self-talk, mindfulness[1] and breathing exercises, a physical and vocal warm-up and a visualization of success.
