Chronic overthinking with sleeplessness indicates Vata–Pitta imbalance, affecting Manovaha srotas (mind channels). This leads to restlessness, anxiety and disturbed sleep. About Himalaya Mentat: Yes, it can be helpful as a supportive medicine. It contains Brahmi, Shankhpushpi which calm the mind, improve focus, and reduce anxiety. Ayurvedic Management: 1. Medicines Combine with stronger medhya (brain tonic) herbs like Brahmi, Ashwagandha, Jatamansi Consider formulations like Saraswatarishta / Ashwagandha churna 2. Sleep Support Take warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg at night Practice Abhyanga (oil massage) with sesame oil or Brahmi oil before sleep 3. Lifestyle Fixed sleep time Reduce screen exposure at night Daily Pranayama (Anulom Vilom, Bhramari) 4. Diet Avoid caffeine, spicy, dry foods Prefer warm, grounding foods (ghee, milk, khichdi)
