Ahead of the Italian Song Festival, San Remo, I always get interviewed by some reporter looking for some tips for their readers. This time it is the turn of Oggi, which presents 5 tips to keep your voice from aging.

Here is an excerpt; you can read the entire article in Oggi Number 5, Feb. 2, 2023.

Taking care of the voice is not just for singers. Vocal cords suffer from the wear and tear of time, cold, dry environments and irritating foods. To keep them in shape, follow 5 tips inspired by the routines of artists and vocal coaches.

No to icy or hot drinks. Let’s dispel the myth of hot milk with honey: milk increases mucus production and heat dilates the tissues of the vocal cords. Cold, on the other hand, makes them contract too much. Either way, the voice suffers. Hydrating the vocal cords is essential, explains vocal coach Milena Origgi: “Drinking water goes down the esophagus and does not touch the vocal cords, which are in the larynx. But at least two liters of water a day hydrates them from the inside.” 

Little “singers’ herb.” Sore throat lozenges made from erismus, the so-called “singers’ herb,” act as an anesthetic: reducing pain, they give the perception of speaking or singing better, but they lead to straining the voice. No alcohol (and no smoking). Alcohol dehydrates the vocal cords, affects their tone and, by producing a brief vasodilation, gives the il- lusion of having a warm apparatus. If one “warms” the voice by drinking, after a few minutes of speaking or singing there will already be a need to clear the voice.

A news agency went out today about my work and the international success of the Inborn Voice method, especially in the United States, chosen by all CEOs and managers of major corporations.

Today an interesting article came out in MF, Milano Finanza, the high profile magazine related to investments, titled “How to speak in public: public speaking for professionals and entrepreneurs” in which it is explained why Inborn Voice Vocal Coaching is the natural evolution of Public Speaking, especially from a business perspective.

You can learn more directly on the Milano Finanza website or read the translation below.

As you may have already seen on social media, Mylena has just opened a new Inborn Voice Studio in Miami, in a totally exclusive location with direct views of the Atlantic Ocean and Beach.

Mylena will soon be holding her workshops in Miami, and we will be able to offer everyone the opportunity not only to attend, but also to stay nearby, so as to combine business with pleasure and fully enjoy Miami’s year-round warm climate.

In the February issue of OK Salute e Benessere you will find a new interview of mine that explains why vocal disorders should never be underestimated: if you often suffer from hoarseness, sore throat, bronchitis or stomach ache, perhaps you are using your voice in the wrong way or your soul wants you to take a break and think.

I’ll be waiting for you at the newsstand and as always I’ll be looking forward to seeing you on this page in March, where you’ll also find the full interview here.
