How to protect your voice during the period of voice change
To learn to protect yourself, you must understand your body, its changes in different periods and the necessary protective measures that should be taken. Only in this way can life The tree is evergreen. For middle school students, adolescence is the period of greatest physical change. If a person's life is compared to a picture scroll, adolescence is the most colorful one; if life is compared to a journey of climbing one peak after another, adolescence is the most difficult and dangerous peak to conquer. During this period, if you cannot understand the changes in various parts of the body, it will cause a series of troubles. A boy named Chen Jianshuo sent us a letter telling us about the troubles he encountered. He said: I feel very inferior recently, more inferior than ever before. I am the sports committee member of the class and I lead the team for a run every morning. I like this job very much. Seeing my classmates moving forward in unison amidst my loud slogans, I feel a sense of satisfaction in my heart. I feel as if I am a commander commanding thousands of troops. But recently, I lost my position as commander. I don’t know what happened, but the slogans I shouted could no longer be louder. My throat was always itchy and painful, and it didn’t get better even after taking anti-inflammatory drugs. In the morning, when I shouted for everyone, the classmates in front laughed and laughed, and the classmates behind said they couldn't listen. Some girls even rolled their eyes at me, which made me feel very guilty. There was no other way, so the teacher had to replace me with someone else. I'm sad, really. I don't know what's wrong with me. Will I always have a "duck voice"? Please help me so that I can regain my former glory as soon as possible. The letter from classmate Chen Jianshuo reminded us of Xiaoqing who was in trouble. It can be said that Xiaoqing had the same "experience" as him. Xiaoqing's voice has always been very good, loud, simple and powerful. He loves to sing, and his songs are the most popular among his classmates at every New Year's Day party, and they always become the well-deserved finale. If there is a performance task in the school, everyone will recommend him to participate on behalf of the class. When he was in elementary school, he even won the first place in the district solo. The certificate he brought back was hung high on the wall of the classroom by the teacher. The principal said that he had won honors for the school. However, in a music class not long ago, Xiaoqing sang out of tune, making her classmates burst into laughter. I don't know who said, "Oh, I stepped on a chicken's neck." Xiaoqing blushed to her neck, feeling very upset. After trying out singing a few more times, Xiaoqing became a little discouraged and he didn't even dare to sing loudly anymore. In the past, music class was Xiaoqing's favorite class, but now, he is most afraid of music class and hearing the laughter of his classmates.
He didn't understand why his originally loud voice had changed overnight. He only felt that his throat was stuffy and suffocated, and his voice was always hoarse. In fact, during adolescence, many teenage friends will have such "encounters". In childhood, the voices of boys and girls are not much different. However, as they grow older, girls' voices become sharper and thinner, while boys' voices appear broader and deeper. Moreover, both of them originally sang very well, but after a while, one person's voice was still very sweet and loud, while the other person's voice became hoarse and unpleasant. Why did such a change occur? This is because people rely on two vocal cords in the throat to pronounce words. During childhood, the vocal cords of boys and girls are similar in length, so the sounds they produce are not very different. The sounds at this time can be collectively referred to as child sounds or child voices. When the voice changes, the vocal cords will change. Boys' vocal cords gradually become thicker, while girls' vocal cords become relatively thin. When the vocal cords change, the voice will naturally change. Moreover, along with these changes, there are other physiological changes. At this time, the throat is prone to congestion or a certain degree of edema. If you don't protect your voice well at this time, your voice will change after the voice change period has passed, and some people's voices will become hoarse and unpleasant. Although Chen Jianshuo and Xiao Qing's voices have become deep and hoarse, this is not a terrible thing because they are in the voice-changing period of adolescence. The change in this period is a false change that has not yet taken shape and has not been completely fixed. As long as they can master the protection measures and skills of the voice during the voice change period, they can restore the voice to its former glory. The voice in the voice-changing stage is like a small tree that is growing and maturing. You need to take good care of it and protect it. When you find something wrong with it, you should correct it in time and give it timely treatment. Then it will regain its former health, sing beautiful songs, and shout loud chants. If you neglect to take care of it, it will be rude to you. So, how should you protect your voice during the period of voice change? First of all, pay attention to using your voice wisely. During the voice-changing period, the throat is often in a congested state. If you talk too much or sing for too long or use too much force, it will cause fatigue in the throat. Therefore, whether you are singing or speaking, do not use too much force, let alone shouting. If you practice singing, it should not exceed one hour a day, and you should not use your voice continuously. After singing for more than ten minutes, you should pause for a while and take a rest. Second, do not eat irritating foods, such as peppers, garlic, onions, vinegar, etc. They will irritate your throat and make your vocal cords more congested, red and swollen. In addition, alcohol and cigarettes also have a great irritating effect on the throat. In pursuit of style and fashion, some middle school students also imitate adults by smoking and drinking. The voice-changing period of adults has passed, the vocal cords tend to be mature and stable, and tobacco and alcohol are less irritating to adults. It's different for young people. The vocal cords are already changing, and smoking and drinking can only aggravate the edema and congestion of the vocal cords. Furthermore, food that is too cold or too hot can also cause trauma to the vocal cords. Therefore, if you like to eat cold drinks or drink hot soup, you should pay more attention during the period of voice change. Third, we must prevent respiratory diseases. During the voice-changing period, you need to take more precautions against colds. After a cold, your voice will be directly affected. Especially severe coughing will increase the burden on the vocal cords, making them more edematous and congested. Fourth, protect your throat and keep it moist. In winter, families in the north have heaters for heating. If the windows are not opened for a long time and the heater is relatively hot, it will easily dry out the air in the room. When people live in a dry and hot environment, their throats and noses will become unbearably dry. thereby increasing the likelihood of disease. Therefore, if you want to have a good voice, you must always pay attention to protecting it from harm. If you feel uncomfortable in your throat, see a doctor as soon as possible, or take some throat lozenges. Self-care is multifaceted. Just like you need self-care when playing video games, your throat also needs careful care. As you are entering adolescence, if you want to have a beautiful singing voice, you might as well start protecting yourself from now on!
