The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study was to explore how professional soul singers described the lived experience of optimal performance as it relates to positive emotions, engagement, relationships, meaning and accomplishment (PERMA) in the Southern US. Professional soul singers have many physiological obstacles to overcome when performing for a live audience; however, there are also many mental and emotional barriers that can prevent performers from achieving consistent results. According to Willamon and Philppe (2020) there are insufficient adaptation strategies to achieve positive health among professional musicians. This lack of sufficient strategies is the reason that this research is needed. Well-being is not only physiological, but Willamon and Philppe (2020) states well-being is a multidimensional phenomenon and refers to emotional and cognitive dimensions that are subjective. Therefore, mental and emotional regulation holds as much importance for well-being as physiological awareness and vocal ability for singers.
