Thanks Sparkster, I think you've hit the nail for most of us. We 'know' we have to relax and try to take a deep breath etc, but then life takes over and the pressure of having to relax causes more tension - it's so ironic, you have to laugh or you'd cry! Hard sounds are difficult, soooo much tension in our lips, jaw and throat. It's good you re-boot and practice techniques to help you through ;) Thanks for sharing ;)
