6.  VocalMist Portable Nebulizer   -  Keep your voice going and more


VocalMist Portable Nebulizer has kept my voice from cracking or even failing me during those important meetings, speeches, or events.
This VocalMist Portable Nebulizer does a brilliant job of keeping your vocal cords healthy and hydrated, so you can sing or speak with ease.
This device works with isotonic saline so that it takes less pressure for your vocal folds to produce sound.
It's available now for $118.00 on VocalMist's website. Less on Amazon!
Thanks to the constant stream of dry heat, this time of year never fails to wreak havoc on my voice. No matter how much water I drink (and I drink a lot of the stuff), my voice, mouth, and throat are always dry. This causes problems with so many of the things I do. I've experienced dry throat so badly, in the past.

That's never good. Not only does it disappoint those who would have been involved, but it also puts me in a backlog situation, where I wind up getting busier and busier. Drinking plenty of water, of course, is key. And humidifiers can also help the situation. But what happens when you find yourself on a stage where you're about to give a presentation or in a meeting room that's dry enough to cause you vocal problems?
