One has to start from something...This dummy book is actually not bad for the beginner in singing, of which I am. But...there is a but... I would not recommend reading this book or something similar before actually working with a voice teacher for a little while.... Why? I believe that learning to understand how your voice works from practicing will intuitively guide you into the right answers about what works and what does not work for your voice. Of course, in order to achieve that, you got to have 3 things: A voice teacher you trust Awareness about how you feel when singing Ability to turn off your real emotions and turn on acting. I found that these three things help to observe how your whole body works when you inhale and exhale when breathing. Carefully listening to the tonality of your voice. Trusting your teacher and listening to your intuition that will push you into the right direction. I guess all I am trying to say. Learn something by practice always. If read this book 6 weeks ago when I just started on my vocal journey. It would have been a waste of my mental storage.

On Effective meditation: Part 1 Investment into @mindvalley quests has been one of the best educational experiences I have ever invested. In one week of the program led by Michael Beckwith, I have come to realize multiple things, live them and experience them not with my mind but with my soul. One of the most powerful realizations was on meditation. You see, I meditated in my life before. Quite diligently. Meditation helped me to stay grounded, centered and what’s most impo...rtant it helped me to truly and authentically be me. The space where you face yourself and it’s scary. It requires a lot of acceptance, forgiveness and gratitude for your own self. And that’s how I used meditation in the past. I learnt about myself. Plus, I did use it to ask questions and seeking for guidance through life. Filling up the gap I had in my spiritual knowledge through this Mindvalley quest program, I have discovered two completely new approaches to meditation that I never thought of before. I call them my effective approaches to mediation. Here is the first one. To be effective during meditation practice and maximize the output I get from this experience I write down the questions I seek to find answers on into my notepad and then I meditate while lying on the floor in a star body position with my pumps facing up to ensure easy floor of energy via the body. I then close my eyes and ask myself the first question I’ve written down into the notepad. While asking this question, I allow for my body to physically relax. Allow my muscles to ache until they are straitened up and the pain completely evaporates. I breathe in. And out keeping the question , asking it. And then I watch what’s coming into my head. Whether it is an image or a thought that I hear , I quickly get out of the meditative state and write the answer down into the notepad. Without analyzing it. And, since my body still finds itself in meditation, I easily slide in to find the answer to the next question in my notepad...Try it out and let me know how it goes! In the meantime, I will cover the second approach to my mediation experience in the next post.. #inspiration #mindvalley #personalgrowth

Pie, no pie story. How people activate their potential? I remember, when I was little, my grandma and then mum used to make a cake and one type of cookie out of 2 or 3 ingredients only, that they could find at home. Just to give you a little bit of history here, I was born just four years after the breakdown of the USSR on the East coast of Russia. And at that time the area I was born in experienced the biggest economical hardship of all. People were hungry, there was a card ...system and the work was quite scarce due to the privatization of the main industrial sectors happening in Russia at that time. Hence, these times collectively caused uncertainty and fear in the minds of the generation of people that just emerged from the postwar era, believing and hoping for the best times to have finally come. Their positive spirits were unfortunately shaken...They had to mobilize their selves, become creative and RESOURCEFUL, but more than that certain in their own ability to stay centered at the core during the most uncertain times of their lives. Like my mum and grandma who found a way to make the most delicious cake out of 3 major ingredients.! Nowadays, uncertainty became a reality. And from now on it will continue to grow externally. But what cannot be changed is our inner ability to stay centered at the core and not allowing external uncertainty to affect our internal certainty. Ability to have the unshakable assurance of tomorrow existence, having a career or business you love doing while enjoying the peace and solely comfort of the family that is yet to come into your life if you are young like myself or older, who maybe even thinking already about manifesting your now and future life in another body, dimension, galaxy. Whatever it might be. Human potential is at its peak when we are facing uncertain times. To embrace and realize that potential within us as humans, is not to experience it via intentional actions or realization of ambitions right away apparently. Because, action is born out of a masculine energy that always in abundance yet contributes to emotional overburn and uncertainty inside of us. Continue in the slider! @ Vancouver, British Columbia
