There has never been a book like it! Dive into a step-by-step process for embracing a mindfulness practice by allowing your raw natural singing voice to be the ultimate bio-feedback tool. Mindfulness and Singing have a natural affinity as they both require a sense of presence. The Mindfulness of Singing fulfills a dynamic niche in the explosive mindfulness market. Change your habits, change your life and let singing be the tool that provides you immediate feedback. Readers will be guided through the authors' four-step "SING Method" which brings awareness to one's mind, body, and spirit. Applying the actionable hands-on tips creates a vibrant and more fully present lifestyle, which enriches one's authentic voice. "The Mindfulness of Singing, Creating a Harmonious Mind, Body and Spirit book is one of the most thoughtful, brilliant and knowledgeable books I have ever read on the topic of singing. It was great reading about many practical techniques and lifestyle practices such as how much water to drink, how to breathe properly and what to eat in order to optimize vocal precision, performance energy and your overall well-being. Not to mention, I loved the chapter on meditation. Denise and Toni did an excellent job at simplifying complex topics such as meditation and making it crystal clear on how to incorporate these beneficial practices into one's daily life. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking practical fun tips on how to perform at your highest level while feeling and looking great. Hats off to Denise and Toni for putting this brilliant book together. I will find myself coming back to this book over and over again." - Jillian Speece, Indie Folk Rock Singer-Songwriter, Emmy Award Winning Artist from The Bergamot, New York "The Mindfulness of Singing thoughtfully addresses the singer's interior journey through an approach that is both practical and personal. Denise and Toni offer a range of useful strategies to align mind, body, and spirit, which will guide the reader to benefits far beyond the voice." - Dean Southern, DMA, NATS Master Teacher, Vice President & Dean at the Cleveland Institute of Music "The Mindfulness of Singing strikes just the right balance of information and practice. The quotes help the reader to feel settled for the section ahead. Its central pedagogy, SING, and targeted applications, are in just the right balance. The personal story telling is powerful and creates a welcoming environment allowing the reader to tailor the content as needed. I really appreciate the authors willingness to share their knowledge. The book does a good job of pointing the reader to their website and podcast for more information without pushing itself. Chapters 3 and 4, the book's center, are chalked full of clear, relevant research and practices. It is impossible to keep reading because it compels you to get up and get to the party! The journal kickstarts are really helpful and what book on singing has ever included a recipe---valerian root has been my friend for years. I used to call it stinky tea. I am definitely going to try the jello! An engaging and thoughtful read, the fine work of these two authors distills centuries of knowledge, practice, and modern research into a thoroughly accessible and practical text for anyone-novice to professional singer, beginning or advanced, studio teachers of all styles (or really, any subject!), stage directors, and conductors. I will most certainly keep this gem near the piano as a companion for when those long days and semesters of teaching and singing need a kickstart!" - Sarah Holmon, NATS International Region Governor and Professor of Voice at Wheaton College

The harmonious partnership between the mind and body lies at the core of practice and performance for classical singers. Mindfulness (staying in the present moment) and Self-regulation (understanding and controlling ones own learning environment) are key concepts that when applied to the discipline of classical singing, could help to enhance the growth of efficient learning skills and healthy vocal development. This paper gathers the philosophies and perspectives of respected researchers (including Jon Kabat-Zinn, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi and K. Anders Ericsson), and organizes them into three separate stages: 1) Mindfulness Stage One which involves mindfulness meditation, developing awareness and increased concentration by paying exclusive attention to the breath, 2) Self-Regulation which centers on deliberate practice, the experts approach to acquiring and developing a skill, acting as a bridge to 3) Mindfulness Stage Two FLOW, the state in which the mind-body connection has been finely tuned to the point that the performance seems effortless and spontaneous. Research data was acquired from classically trained singers through a comprehensive online survey, to determine if the concepts of Mindfulness and Self-regulation were being utilized in the training and performance of classical singers. Comparisons were made between the responses of student singers and professional singers. The intention was to look for commonalities and differences with regards to their training and performance practices as well as their perspectives on and experience with these key concepts. Based on the survey results, the researcher concludes that the singer participants are familiar with and do apply some basic Mindfulness and Self-regulatory concepts and strategies to their practice of singing. The researcher believes that the singers could benefit from a deeper understanding of these concepts, leading to more consistent and focused training and performance. Further research is needed that would require direct observation of the singers implementation of these concepts into their regular practice routine. The information garnered through this dissertation sets up a foundation for promising future research projects, such as the development of smart-phone applications as tools for self-feedback and self-analysis, further exploring how Mindfulness and Self-regulation can be applied to classical singing.

“Singing is as human as breathing, and this book tells us why.” —Mark Guarino, contributing music writer, The Guardian Celebrated yogi-musician Girish opens new possibilities for transforming your life through song, combining the ancient art of singing mantra with twenty-first century neuroscience research. For as long as he can remember, Girish has created rhythm to accompany life. His first experience of music as sacred art came in college, playing with jazz bands. “During improvisational sessions,” he recalls, “there were these unexplainable moments of synchronicity and intuition that felt like magic.” This led Girish to an unexpected journey—a seeming detour to live as a monk in an ashram for five years that inadvertently nourished his musical artistry. Here, he studied Sanskrit as a means to understand the deeper meanings of ancient chants, which sparked a life-changing event that led him back to music—and to combine music with Sanskrit chants. Now he shares what he’s learned to help people of all ages, backgrounds, and traditions to transform body, brain, and life through mantra and music. With Music and Mantras, Girish has created an interactive toolkit—including more than ninety minutes of companion audio material—for personal transformation through singing, sharing his own experience as a musician, yogi, and former Hindu monk. Weaving simple, elegant mantras from ancient traditions with neuroscience, Girish shows us how to achieve greater peace of mind, clarity, calm, focus, and even improved health and wealth through the yogic art of chanting—an ideal practice for singing our way to happiness, health, and prosperity.

Participants' stories were ripe with explorations of themselves, life circumstances that contributed to their relationships with their voices and vocal technique and musing on society and professional pressures. Primary discoveries include participants' self-attributed growth in self-awareness, including self-efficacy and an increased growth mentality. Incorporating deliberate vocal technique using non-judgmental noticing, kinder self-talk, open-ended feedback, and the use of third thing discussions similarly enhanced participants' self-defined growth and emphasized the importance of self-reflection within a group setting. The discussion concludes with an exploration of additional factors affecting participants' growth, such as gender and race, and potential considerations for implementing continued work with singers, contemplative education, and mindfulness.

Mindfulness and mindfulness-based practices improve productivity in general education and vocal settings and have the potential to revolutionize choral music education. The purpose of this research is to improve vocal music education, vocal pedagogy, and voice practice, through the study of mindfulness-based practices and their relevance in vocal practices. The essential question answered as part of this research is, how do mindfulness and mindfulness-based practices increase productivity in the choral classroom? Sub questions addressed in this research include: 1) What is mindfulness meditation?, 2) How is mindfulness already utilized in vocal settings?, and 3) How can mindfulness best be included in the curriculum for the choral classroom? Mindfulness is an ancient practice that has been passed down, modified, and expanded upon for generations to improve physical and mental health, and as is learned in this research, vocal health. In vocal settings mindfulness is used to encourage awareness of the vocal mechanism, promote relaxation, and reduce stage fright. Mindfulness can be adapted to meet the needs of each individual choral classroom using methods such as the Alexander Technique, General Secular Mindfulness, and Yoga. Mindfulness improves productivity in the choral classroom by addressing common problems associate with student singing, improving focus and behavior management, and increasing awareness within the student.
