Neutralizing the larynx

Hi, Kianna! See here for a lesson on neutralizing the larynx, and here for a lesson on larynx control. You can sing with a high larynx (especially for pop styles and sometimes for a belt style) - but if it's uncomfortable, that's a sign that it's too high and/or other muscles are getting involved! Try singing on a "dopey" MUHM or BUHB first to retrain the larynx from rising for high notes. Then, when you feel stable, return to the lyrics - but try to keep that UH feeling in the throat!

How do you neutralize the larynx? And should you neutralize the larynx when singing high or belting (how would you do that)? I always feel that when I sing high, my larynx is going wayyy to high to the point it's uncomfortable. Any tips?
