Practice 10/25/16

Okay. Today, I read Cindy's comments and really focused on "smiling more" and having that internal smile, and that helped alleviate a lot of the issues I was having. I have a tendency to frown the corners of my mouth in order to get a darker sound. With that in mind, I followed along with my Lessons from 2/26 and 2/27/16. These lessons really help me with loosening the adductory muscles, and that was something I was struggling with. The internal smile helped raise the soft palate and probably some other things. I also kept things pretty light towards the beginning and kept reminding myself to release my jaw, even during these "smiling" moments.
