Exercise for muscle relaxation before speaking
A couple weeks ago @Anouchka Hanneman asked me about a practice do to so that you can relax your muscles before speaking and how to prepare And I thought WHAT A wonderful question!! I honestly donโ€™t really relax my muscles before speaking my target language but I think I should. I only used to do that when I would sing in concerts and stuff but I think that it is very useful especially if you want to speak clearly and goodly (I know thats not a word lol) So yeah Here are 3 quick things that you can do 1. The Brrr - I think its called something like the raspberry but anyways you make a brr sound by putting your lips together and its great. Do this for 3 minutes before you speak. 2. Conscious breathing - I know this one sounds kind of weird but if you think about it a lot of the time we are tensed up and if start becoming aware of your breath and kind of focus on it then we relax and especially our throat and whole body just relaxes. Have a concious inhale and exhale for 3-5 minutes 3. Also when I was being taught how to sing one thing that we always did was Yawning and relaxation So after you breath consciously try and yawn. PS: The daily learn languages together will only be 45 minutes instead of the usual 1hr today :) Also if you have any more questions please ask me

@Kai Cerar Great tips! The conscious breathing one is so helpful for high-stakes speaking, and often speaking in our second languages increases the โ€œsocial stakesโ€. It reminds me why having a beer or two is great for my fluency and confidence when speaking Chinese ๐Ÿ˜‚

@Kai Cerar Youโ€™ve covered some great ones! I try to encourage: - a physical ritual (like the brr or a tongue twister) - a breathing ritual (physiological sigh is great) - a mental ritual (cognitive reframes, grounding techniques, โ€œmantrasโ€) Thatโ€™s plenty. Any more than that is overkill haha.
333 members!!!
We JUST hit 333 members And as you all know - every 111 members something new happens... For 111 it was weekly community calls For 222 it was the 5 day language learning quest and accountability companions For 333 it will be..... A free DAILY 1 hour language call where you can connect and talk with people that are learning your target language and also a language learning Chest (coming soon 1-2 days) That is filled with resources For 444 members it will be language learning Guilds and competitions I was literally Dreaming of this!! Because the best way to learn a new language is to actually have conversations with real people not with a screen... sooo if you want to speak and are actually serious about learning your target language then open your calendar and add it into there :) Also we will have our weekly community call today you can check it out here ๐ƒ๐š๐ข๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐จ๐ญ๐ž For all the investors here :) "Knowledge acquisition represents the most reliable investment strategy, yielding returns throughout one's lifetime." โ€” Benjamin Franklin ๐ƒ๐š๐ข๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐•๐š๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ž If you really think about language learning and simplify it as much as possible you will come to the conclusion that it is just input and output or Comprehension and composition And the BEST possible way to actually train these 2 skills is by communicating with someone in your target language, making mistakes and forgetting also getting comfortable with the fact that you are NOT perfect..... ๐ƒ๐š๐ข๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐‚๐ก๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ž๐ง๐ ๐ž Speak to a mirror in your target language for a min of 1 minute. This sounds crazy but it is literally the most underrated way to get better at becoming conversational. Because you arent looking at text, you are speaking to someone and its veeery hard but its great for building confidence as well All the best, Kai :) ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ’–โค๏ธ

@Ruth aka Grace Rose I'm doing good! How are you doing?
If you could teleport to 1 place, where would you go.
I was drinking a blend of herbs and stuff for my throat. When all of a sudden I had this strong yearning to travel somewhere and then I had a thoughtโ€ฆ.. If you could grab your stuff in your hands and teleport to a place quickly or for however long you want where would you go? ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”
