Most of us carry around a narrative that "happiness" will be something we experience when we... fill in the blank. Achieve a skill, make more money, find love, perform successfully. But, what if happiness was available to you right here right now? In fact, what if you've been delaying the experience for yourself because you just haven't stopped long enough to notice? What if you gave up the story that you need to accomplish XYZ in order to feel good and started practicing happiness now? What actions would you take? How would you show up in the world? This episode is meant to be the encouragement you need to actually engage this truth and make choices accordingly.

Recently Davin had an experience with a client where he was demonstrating sounds that were more constricted in his body and then he made adjustments to show her sounds that were more free. Her response was "My body wants that! It's like my body knows." This got him thinking about how we all have a deep knowing of freedom, yet we have been so conditioned to ignore it. The path back often doesn't feel easy because it requires a willingness to become quite intimate with our suffering, but when we do, we always find ourselves pointed toward more clarity on what freedom really is.

There is a simple truth that if you understand might be a real game changer in your life, and it is this: The only thing any of us actually want, is a feeling. While we convince ourselves that we want things or situations or outcomes, the thing we are actually craving is a feeling and it turns out it is available to us here, right now. We simply have to cultivate awareness around it and allow it to emerge. In this episode, Davin shares more about this singular truth and how embracing it more fully has been a key to his personal growth and development. In addition, he reflects how not understanding this is often a hindrance to many on their voice journey.

Do you question your voice? Wonder if it is good enough? Wonder if it is worth listening to? Wonder if it will ever be able to sing that note or do that thing? You're not alone, but this is also at the heart of what inhibits your ability to express yourself like you want. Trusting your voice is no small task, but it is at the heart of what it will take to really enjoy transformational change in your singing and creative expression. In this episode, Davin shares how trusting your voice is akin to believing your intuition. It's a coming home to self and knowing the wisdom of the body. It is about making choices based on curiosity and optimism rather than inhibition and fear. It is a path of constant expansion, growth and belonging and it is possible for you, right now.

What is one thing you share in common with all other singers? You have a core vocal wound, and subsequently a core vocal belief. What does this mean? Well, all singers have some experience (or experiences) from their childhood, regarding their voice, that they perceived as a threat. These experiences can range from seemingly small happenings, like someone telling you to "be quiet" to the truly life altering, like childhood abuse. What comes up around these experiences, or your core wound, is a core belief that you concocted as a means to keep yourself safe. In this episode of the Free Your Voice, Free Your Life Podcast, Davin will help you understand how to move through and beyond your core wound, core belief and core decision into a life of vocal flourishing. Using the words of the Zen Buddhist teacher, Charlotte Joko Beck from her book Ordinary Wonder, Davin offers insights on why returning to your core wound is the necessary first step to exercise compassion for and ultimately sing for your inner child... one of the most powerful acts you can offer yourself on your voice journey. If you would like to learn more about this process, check out Davin's virtual voice coaching program which kicks off Jan 20, 2024.

We learn about the connection between sound and our bodies, painting a picture of an intimate bond between our physical and spiritual selves. In the final segment of our conversation, Davin opens up about the impact of voice and sound in healing. He shares insights on how trauma manifests physically through tension, and how it can be released through our voices. We learn about the magic of group work and the divine expression of improv. Davin wraps up the discussion with his views on improvisation and its power to provide a safe space for healing.

Have you ever attempted to practice singing and then realized you didn't quite know what to do? This is not an uncommon experience, even amongst more advanced singers and there is good reason for this. Singing is quite a mysterious sport. It's easy to think about it loosely as the same as practicing any other instrument, but that comparison might not quite hold up when we think about the journey of becoming a more accomplished singer. In this episode of the Free Your Voice, Free Your Life podcast, Davin will give you practical advise about how to best practice singing so you can facilitate change within your voice. He'll also explain why a one-size-fits-all approach will never work and why the framework of yoga and meditation might be the best way to understand your voice journey.

Have you ever considered “being seen” as an important part of your voice journey?

In this episode of Free Your Voice, Free Your Life, Davin dispels this myth and shares the importance of understanding the fullness of your presence when you use your voice and really sing. See, all fo the physical evidence for how your voice works in your body is discoverable by watching. An important task for singers is to learn to watch themselves so that others can do the same. It is a practice, but is the only real way to step into the full embodiment of your voice. Learn more about Davin at davinyoungsvoice.com and Instagram @davinyoungs…

Think of this like a universal law about the singing and the voice: If It Feels Good, It Sounds Good. Now I know that you don't trust that to be true and that there have been many times that you have felt good singing where are certain that it hasn't sounded good... but in this episode of Free Your Voice, Free Your Life, Davin explains to you why this has to be the truth and why knowing it, in your body is an essential step on your voice journey. As humans, we are not conditioned to notice the truth and wisdom that our body offers. But, as singers, it is essential that we do in that the discomfort is always our best cue to uncover and discover pleasure. When we experience pleasure in our sound... regardless of our skill or ability, we then allow others to experience the same. It's a simple principle, but really knowing it take a willingness and bravery to confront the truth of our sound. This episode is an invitation for you to notice what actually feels good, and an encouraging word to lean fully into it. The result will always be good sounds.
