I was recently diagnosed with LBD with Parkinsonism: Any advice?

My husband is with LBD and used to have a soft voice, almost inaudible. Chanting exercise for 12 minutes a day seems to help with this and now his voice projection is quite good. One will see the difference within in a week or two. Singing and reading out loud help, too. I think these exercise may help with other aspects (swallowing, drooling, facial expression and blood circulation in the brain) by strengthening facial muscles and vocal cords. We use Kirtan Kriya by The Light House and Nirinjan Kaur (short) versions for the exercise.

It was an unexpected, marvelous benefit. It's a great exercise to do together with other family members. Try and see.

Welcome @jecheon. What a simple but effective way to strengthen the voice.

I noticed that you wished to post links to 2 YouTube videos. You will be able to add links to your posts in a few days. There is a brief period where new members can't post links. We do this to deter spammers and keep the community safe.

Are these the videos you wished to post?
