Q&A: “I Have Only Low Notes, And Can’t Sing High. Can I Expand My Range?”
Answer: YES! Case in point: 20 years ago I had no high voice. Zip. Zilch. Nada. I had my speaking chest voice, and a few weak middle head voice notes, separated by a clunker of a break. After that, my voice came to a (literally) screeching halt. When I had a major health crisis, Deepak…
Is Hitting High Notes With Your Chest Voice Good, Or Can It Damage Your Voice?
Three words: Don’t. Do. It. Here’s the thing: Ask yourself one question: WHY. That’s all. WHY do you want to do that? Or: WHY do you think someone else, or the song wants you to do that? WHY do you feel you need to push your chest voice high in order to HIT (… this…
Why do Opera Singers get Standing Ovations in Reality Shows?
Did you ever watch one of those talent shows?

Interesting observation. This may very well be a non-rational…

Does Practice Improve Your Singing Voice? Or Is It God Gifted?
Yes. And: Yes. You’re welcome. 😉 But seriously: Of course some of us have talents others don’t. We are not cookie cutter versions of each other. Rather, we are snowflakes, each with our own sets of skills, likes, dislikes, history, karma, intentions, and plans for this life. So clearly, there will always be those of…

"Using and freeing our full voice and breath is a preventative measure we can no longer ignore. Not just as a quick fix, but as an actual tool in preventing dis-ease in the first place." Ulrike Selleck, Healing Voice Expert, Classical Singer, Intuitive, Author, SING YOURSELF WELL
Hi, I'm Ulrike Selleck.
25 years ago I faced a major health crisis.
Dr. Deepak Chopra told me back then: If you want to heal, you have to learn to sing, speak up, and EXPRESS yourself!
Turns out, I'm not alone!
Did you know that we use only 20% of our voice and breath in daily life?
What if there's a connection between us using this tiny fraction and all the major health concerns today?
Depression, anxiety, asthma, high blood pressure, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, - all are symptoms of a constricted energy!
I'm passionately teaching what I learned: We need to use our full voice! The "normal" 20% are NOT enough.
In my book Sing Yourself Well in 7 Seconds I share my personal story, why we don't sing, why we absolutely need to, and HOW to do it, quickly, holistically, and in a fun way!
In my Sing Yourself Well online course you'll learn how to use your full voice and breath in a fast, fun, systematic way, so you strengthen your health, gain authentic confidence, happiness, and learn to get yourself out of pretty much any funk, all in 7 seconds!
I'd like to invite you to join me on this path of both, finding your inner voice, and expressing your outer voice. I'm looking forward to hearing how your life has changed for the better. ~ Ulrike
