SESSION Abstract: Your Voice Has Power: Breath, Sound, and Everyday Wellbeing:

This talk reveals what is happening in the body and brain when we breathe and use the voice, and why it has a direct impact on mood, perception, and control. Drawing on operatic practice and transformational breathwork, it examines the neurology and physiology of vocal mechanics, showing how breath and sound can actively shift internal state. The session is not about learning to sing, but about recognising the voice as a powerful, underused system for regulation, awareness, and self-management.


Date: Wednesday 18th November

Time & format: The course will start at 10am, with a coffee and tea break followed by a lively facilitated discussion to answer all your curious questions. The course will finish at 12pm each week

Location: We are delighted to be in the Tama Tūranga Huata room at Toitoi: Hawke's Bay Arts & Events Centre Hastings Street South, Eastbourne Corner, Hastings.
