JAMES MENY: So let me give you some examples of that. Nay, N-A-Y, is a high larynx exercise. Nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay. E, let's say the word gee. Gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee. Very high larynx. If you're able to see underneath that, that would go up. If you want to do it on your own in your own home, you just put your fingers on your neck. You'll feel your larynx go up when you do it. Nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay, nay. You also, sound-wise, will get that winey sound. Hay, hay, hay, okay? The opposite end would be to use a low larynx exercise, which would be something like mum, M-U-M. Mum, mum, mum, mum, mum, mum, mum, mum, mum. And you can feel more chest sound coming out of that or hear more chest sound coming. You can feel it in your upper chest also vibrating. It's what we call secondary resonance. So, mum, mum, mum, mum, mum, mum, mum, mum, mum or noh, noh, noh, noh, noh, noh, noh, noh, noh. Nuh, nuh, nuh, nuh, nuh, nuh, nuh, nuh, nuh. All low larynx exercises.
