About this episode
This episode is another instalment of our movable articulator release journey. We will learn how to release the lips to help us improve our vocal clarity and communication. We will talk about the benefits of lips release, and we will go through a simple yet effective lip release exercise.
What You Will Learn In This Episode:
- The benefits of lip release
- The importance of awareness of the lips
- What sounds our lips helps produce
- How to do the Martian speak exercise
The lips have a central role in many of the sounds we produce, like bilabial plosives, bilabial nasals, bilabial approximants, and labiodental sounds. Releasing the lips is very important for articulation, but it is also crucial for volume and vocal quality.
