I have nodules. Will I ever sing again?

Nodules can be caused from a combination of factors. I found that shallow, incorrect breathing causes a lack of support and results in acid reflux. This condition is exacerbated by increased stress from negative unconscious thinking.  This in turn starts to effect the strength and health of your vocal chords. Once one masters correct breathing, abdominal support, proper placement of tone, and mental calmness, the voice is free and supported with ease, relieving the stress on your vocal cords. This will allow your nodules to heal.  The videos on breathing and conscious thought will create an environment that allows you to heal. Once your nodules have healed, you will now be able to sing (again).

I had a stroke, can I ever sing again?

In most cases medical professionals would say no, yet I taught a student who had had a stroke. She was relatively young, and was once able to sing beautifully.  She came to me just hoping to regain her speaking voice, and told me she thought she could never sing again. Upon using my Acapelladiva conscious breathing, getting proper support,  and finding her "dollar spot" she is now is singing and speaking clearly and with confidence. Only we can determine what we can achieve. It is the breathing technique I provided and Psychology of appropriate thought that helps one be resilient with any adversity. Our thoughts are instrumental in helping us find our vocal instrument.

I have tinnitus and sing off pitch, how can I sing on pitch?

Tinnitus is a constant ringing in your ears that cannot easily be relieved, but I have helped numerous people be able to sing ON PITCH with my Acapelladiva Method.  In the video series (name goes here) I helped a student identify his particular tinnitus pitch, and then was able to use constructive harmonic interference or a pedal tone and to use that tone to construct a vocal resonance off of. He talks of how he embraced his tinnitus pitch and trained his brain to hear the tinnitus as a pedal tone and not tune it out.  This "new discovery" now enhances his voice by integrating the octatonic scale with this pedal tone as opposed to trying to fight the ringing.
