My Head Shakes When I

My Head shakes when i get nervous?

i bet it's not actually shaking that much. i think you may feel as if it is and it makes you more nerveous. you need to focus on what the person is saying. try to become interested in what they are saying rather than thinking about your own body language.

i'm not saying that as if 'it's all in your head get over it' it's just sometimes our mind gets caught in ways of thinking that isn't true and if you stress about it, it will make it worse.
it;s kinda like when one of your freinds goes, 'the guy i like doesn't like me, noones ever going to like me' and you know that last bit isn't true.
Just like in your head your thinking 'omg i must look like a freak' you probably don't.

Why does my head shakes?

interesting. go to the doctor even if he doesnt know what it is. it couldnt hurt to go

Head shakes when I sing vibrato?

My answer is a bit boring, but hang with me!

These are good questions. There are many voice teachers who teach otherwise, but straight tone, not vibrato, is actually the most natural way to make a sound. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise! You never hear a baby cry with vibrato, nor do people talk with vibrato (unless you count Katherine Hepburn). Vibrato must be consciously or unconsciously caused physically by the singer.

For some people, their musical ears tell them to sing with vibrato and their bodies react and respond, “kicking off” the muscle work to begin the vibrato. They might not even know how they’re making it happen! Singers without a vibrato, on the other hand, will have to make a more conscious effort to train their bodies to produce vibrato. Once it does begin, though, it soon becomes relatively easy to maintain.

Let me give you this as a crude (and somewhat boring) example of what vibrato is:

It’s a bit like an air hose underwater, slowly letting air bubbles out at a consistent rate; say at 5-7 bubbles per second. Once one bubble is released, there is a little time for the air pressure to build back up, and then it releases the next bubble, and so on. In this example, of course, there is a complete break between each air bubble.

In singing, however, there is a constant, but uneven release of air. There is slightly more air pressure build-up than is being consistently released. As a result, there are periodic releases of that extra build up of air – the pulses that become vibrato. The extra back pressure before the release of each pulse, as small as it is, is felt all the way back in the lungs, and then it’s released. The vibrato sound we hear is the pressure-release-pressure-release pulsing that occurs. There is synergistic pressure build-up and release between the vocal folds (chords) and the muscles controlling the upward air flow (abs, diaphragm, and dozens of others).

But, at the end of the day, the vibrato process has to be “kicked off”, and then maintained by the singer. For many singers, their ear told them their tone needed a pulse to it, so they put it in. It’s frustrating to those who have to work at “causing” it, but it can be taught and it can definitely be learned. Once it’s learned well, it will feel “natural”.

Happy Singing!!

When i sing i tend to shake my head alot?

If this is uncontrollable even when thinking about it, or you miss notes when you don't do it, the chances are you are using an incorrect vocal technique. The reason a number of singers shake their heads, is to try and manually gain control over their vocal chords.

Never strain your voice to do anything. Do not force control over your vocal chords by singing louder, longer, higher etc.

Instead, practice scales and relaxation techniques. Drop your jaw, sing from you diaphragm, practice breathing, sing standing up or lying flat on your back.

When you harmonize, make sure the part is not too high/low for you. When you sing runs, ensure you aren't belting them and using physical motion to move your vocal chords. Practice runs slowly and build up the pace - don't just expect to be able to do it.

That said, you could just be a neurotic freak who watches too many pop stars. :P

When I get nervous my head shakes slightly. Why?

You just think about the result before doing anything. You don't want to try. Always be ready to do anything at anytime. Generate positivity in your life . Don't compare yourself to anyone . You are unique , your life has different chapter form others, so live with it full spirit and enjoy every moment. You always have second chance so always stand for trying anything without thinking about result.

Is it o.k. that my cat shakes its head once in awhile?

She may have mites, but it may also be normal. One of the signs of having ear mites is the head shaking that your cat is doing. Also you might check for something that looks like coffee grounds or dirt in her ear, but that isn't always present. I would call the vet's office and ask them if they have other signs that you can check for before you actually bring her in. (If one office insists on bringing her in for a visit just based on her shaking her head, maybe call and get another vet's opinion.) I hope this helps!

When I get nervous my head shakes, how do I stop this?

Why do you want to stop this. I'm curious. When I get nervous I talk alot. If I can't talk I let out occasional deeeep breaths. I figure these are release mechanisms we adapted into our life cycle which if used effectively helps ease the edge a little. These are things I didn't realise initially but with time you learn that every aspect of yourself can be developed further to increase the effectiveness off that specific aspect. So instead of trying to get rid of the habit develop it. Maybe you do it too often hence you are worried. Reduce the frequency of it. Shake your head in short bursts. Before you shake take in a deep breath and exhale while shaking. Add a little force to it. Force it out. You'll see the results. Don't look at it as negative trait. Since you do it everytime you are nervous your body understands the action. Now it's upto you how you hone it. Hope this helps.
