Leaning Into Discomfort: Supporting Regulation and Resilience in Voice Care

Working with the singing body and nervous system, whether in teaching, coaching, therapy, or performance, often means navigating moments of stress, vulnerability, and uncertainty. In these moments, both teachers and clients can find themselves operating from a heightened autonomic stress response that affects communication, learning, and vocal function.

This session explores how an understanding of the autonomic nervous system can inform more effective and compassionate voice work. Participants will learn practical strategies to support regulation and resilience in themselves and the singers, students, or clients they work with.

Through discussion and applied examples, we will explore grounding techniques across the senses, co-regulation in the teaching and clinical relationship, recognising personal stress responses, and developing supportive strategies such as SMART goal setting and mindset shifts around challenge. We will also consider the role of the wider musical environment and how professionals can advocate for healthier, more supportive learning and performance cultures.

Designed for voice teachers, coaches, singers, and students with an interest in voice care, this session combines evidence-informed concepts with practical tools that can be applied immediately in teaching, coaching, and clinical contexts.
