This tool was developed as part of Cultural Cwtsh, which was an online creative wellbeing hub for the health and care workforce in Wales, created by the Arts Council of Wales in collaboration with artists across the country.
In partnership with the Arts Council of Wales, we’re excited to share this mental wellbeing tool, alongside with many other creative resources, with everyone in Wales!
Hello, my name is Iori. I’m a founder and Director of Choirs For Good and have been a choir leader working within the field of arts in health for over 10 years.
We all know that singing has positive effects on our health and wellbeing; it can reduce cortisol levels (so you feel less stressed), increase immune response and help improve lung function.
Grow your voice is a four-step programme to help boost your health and wellbeing.
We will learn about breathing, posture, voice function, and maybe sing a song or two along the way.
I hope to give you some handy tools and exercises which you can use daily, and if you’re ever feeling stressed or need a pick me up, this may just help.
Let’s start!
