Throat Coat Tea
Hydration
One of my most used vocal products! I love to steam morning and night to clear out sinuses and add some extra topical hydration to your cords. Just be careful not to steam too soon before you sing; you want to give your cords a bit of time to cool do...
Personal Steam Inhaler
I love to use my nebulizer before a rehearsal or church service! Because it is a “cool mist," there's really no risk of overuse and you can nebulize right up until it's time to use your voice!
Portable Nebulizer
Obviously you can use any water bottle, but I love my Owala! Perfect for taking into rehearsals or any other high-voice-use setting!

I don't always add electrolytes to my water, but I love to incorporate them on days where I know I'm going to be using my voice very heavily, for a little extra hydration!

Nasal Irrigation
Good quick alternative to a Neti Pot…
ARM & HAMMER Simply Saline Nasal Care Mist 4.5oz
Nothing like a good Neti Pot to totally clear out your nasal passageways… Maybe not the most fun activity but it helps SO much in having a clear voice!
Neti Pots
