Q: Speech starts with breathe, so good speech starts with good breathing. Ideally you want to breathe from your diaphragm, slowly and steadily, at all times. Start practicing by placing a hand on your stomach and breathing deeply so that you stomach rises and falls with each breathe. Practice this several times a day. Another breathing exercise you can do is to read a paragraph with a mix of long and short sentences. Use just one deep, single breathe for each sentence, exhaling gradually as you read out loud. Then take a breathe and start the next sentence. This is just an exercise to improve breathe strength. This isn't how you should try to talk normally. Faster speech will make you sound less confident, and will make you harder to understand. One way to improve the quality of your voice immediately is just to slow down. Practice by reading anything out loud, first with your normal speaking speed, and then slowed down. Another way to practice is to read off a list of numbers as if it were a long phone number, writing them in the air with your finger as you go. This is the ideal speed for natural, clear speech. Depending on where your natural pitch and pitch variety are right now, you may need to work on this a lot, or just a little. Work on your overall pitch by consciously trying to speak in a lower tone, as often as you can remember. It's important to do this gradually though, just around a half-tone lower at a time. Work on your pitch variety by injecting different pitches in your sentences to add interest and emotion. Two ways to practice this are the following exercises:  Practice saying a two syllable word over and over with varying pitch changes. There are four types of pitch changes, rising pitch, falling pitch, rising up then down, and falling down then up. Repeat a sentence over and over and change which word gets the emphasis. For example, say "I didn't steal the bike," first by emphasizing that it wasn't you who stole the bike, then by emphasizing the "didn't," then by implying that you did something to the bike besides stealing it, and then by implying that you stole something other than the bike. Practice talking with a more relaxed mouth and jaw. The best way to do this is to practice on your own, exaggerating the normal movements of your face as you speak. Open your mouth wide when you make "oh" and "ah" sounds, and let your jaw move low. Add this to your daily voice practice routine. If your voice isn't relaxed, you're going to be speaking from your throat instead of your diaphragm, and your voice will come out tense, harsh, and forced. Follow this method several times a day to relax your voice:  Start by placing your hands on your throat and talking normally, noting any tightness in your throat and jaw. Make a big yawn and let your jaw fall as low as it will comfortably. End the yawn by saying "ho-hum." Continue the "hum" for several seconds with your lips shut, and as you do so, move your jaw from side to side and let it hang a little. Do this several times. Say the words "hang," "harm," "lane," "main," "lone," "loom." Exaggerate your facial movements as you do so. Yawn again whenever your throat gets a little tired. Use your fingers to softly knead your throat muscles. Relax your throat as your repeat the following sounds slowly: "nay," "nay," "nee," "no," "noo."
A: Improve your breathing. Slow down and lose the filler words. Watch your pitches. Open your mouth and jaw more. Learn exercises to relax your voice.

Q: Look up organizations that make wigs for people with cancer, Alopecia, etc. Find one that you like and know the requirements for a hair donation. The policies vary amongst organizations, and some may or may not take your hair.  Two organizations, Pantene and CWHL (Children With Hair Loss) accept donations of 8 inches (20.3 cm) or more. Locks of Love and Wigs for Kids accept donations only of 10 and 12 inches, respectively. If it's curly, pull it straight to measure. Make sure your hair is not chemically damaged (dyed repeatedly), very dead (split ends), or dirty, and is at least 8–12 inches (20.3–30.5 cm) long (depending on the organization). Hair like this is often not accepted.  Be sure you don't waste your hair or your efforts!  There is a difference between colored and bleached hair. Each organization is different, but just because you've colored your hair doesn't necessarily mean that you're out of the running to help. Gray hair is appreciated just as much! Most organizations have a form online that you can fill out to accompany your donation. If you want to remain completely anonymous you may choose to do so, but if you want verification that your donation was received, this step is necessary. This may be as simple as including your name and address. And if it takes a couple of months to hear back, don't fret. Sometimes the organizations are running low on help and it takes time to get everything organized. You can always call or inquire online if you're curious.
A: Do your research. Prepare your hair. Fill out the form.

Q: If Aries men are the crash and burn, fly by the seat of your pants type, Pisces men are more gentle, nurturing, and romantic. The more you can turn on your gentle side, exploring your natural sensitivity and vulnerability, the better your chances will be. The Pisces man doesn't care how much money you have, what kind of car you drive, or where you live. While it's a plus to him, he doesn't base his opinion of you on superficial factors like job status. Pisces men are looking for more of a soulmate, not a status symbol. Pisces men are very in touch with their creative side; they tend to look for the same thing in their romantic interests. If you've got a creative bone in your body, get in touch with it, explore it, and nurture it. A Pisces man who sees you develop a relationship with your art will want to explore that relationship with you. That's your in.  Art, spirituality, music — these are all expressions of your creativity that you can show to the Pisces man. Philosophy, sculpture, writing are also good hobbies to cultivate in order to put your best foot forward. A Pisces man may not be the life of the social party, but he treats the friends he does have like family, and he treats the family he has like friends. Invest in his family in order to invest in him. Pisces also like to feel that they are welcomed by your family. Therefore, try to prepare your family for someone who has a rich inner life, but whose outer shell may not immediately suggest it. Because Pisces internalize a lot about the world, perhaps noticing injustice and cruelty in ways that other signs don't, it helps to be generous around a Pisces you're trying to woo. Don't fake it, because he'll be able to see right through your shenanigans; tap into your most charitable self and let that person come out. Whenever you say "I love you," mean it. Don't be afraid when he says it back because a Pisces's words are the most meaningful and carefully chosen of any sign.
A:
Be sensitive and gentle around him. Be yourself. Get in touch with your creative side. Get along with his friends, family, and respect what they do. Be charitable by giving back. Mean it when you deliver gestures of affection.
