Singing is good for our lungs
If you've ever led a warm-up on a grey Tuesday evening and watched a room full of tired faces slowly come alive, you already know singing does something to us. We stand a little taller. We breathe a little deeper. By the end of the session, people are chatting and laughing in a way they weren't when they walked in.
It turns out there's good science behind that feeling, especially when it comes to our lungs.
What happens when we sing
