Namaste Radha ji, Your persistent hoarseness from morning to sunset suggests an imbalance of Vata and Kapha dosha affecting your vocal cords. Vyoshadi Vatakam is helping you, which indicates that excess Kapha (mucus) may be coating your throat, and some Vata dryness may also be causing strain. To support your voice naturally, continue warm herbal drinks with ginger, Tulsi, and black pepper, and avoid cold, heavy, and fried foods that increase Kapha. Oil pulling (Gandusha) with sesame oil, followed by Bhramari Pranayama (humming bee breath), can strengthen your vocal cords. Steam inhalation with eucalyptus or mint leaves before singing can also help clear your throat. In addition to Vyoshadi Vatakam, try Yashtimadhu (licorice) with honey to reduce strain and soothe the vocal cords. Kantakari Avaleha can also be beneficial for maintaining voice clarity and reducing hoarseness. If the hoarseness persists despite these remedies, a deeper Nadi Pariksha (pulse diagnosis) may help determine underlying imbalances. With consistent care, your voice will regain its clarity, strength, and effortless range for singing. Wishing you a melodious journey ahead!

It sounds like you may be experiencing a Vata imbalance, which can cause dryness and strain in the voice, particularly when overused. Vyoshadi Vatakam is often used to balance Vata and support the respiratory and vocal systems, as it has properties that help soothe dryness, clear mucus, and ease strain in the throat. Since it brings clarity and ease to your voice, it indicates that it’s helping to balance the elements of your body that affect your vocal cords. Ayurveda also recommends maintaining a warm, hydrating diet with soothing herbs like Licorice and Ginger to support your voice. Additionally, regular oil gargles with sesame oil or using herbal teas like Tulsi can further help. Avoiding excessive speaking or singing without rest and incorporating practices to calm Vata, such as meditation and adequate hydration, can also support your vocal health over time. If the issue persists, you may want to explore deeper Ayurvedic treatments to restore harmony to your voice and overall vitality.
