Stress Management through Ayurveda

द्वारा लिखित

Dr. Priya Sharma

Nangelil Ayurveda Medical College

I am Dr. Priya Sharma, and I mostly work with women who are struggling with stuff like hormonal issues, skin flare-ups, hair thinning, or fertility troubles that don’t always have one straight answer. Over the years, I’ve realised that real healing doesn’t come from a standard protocol—it comes when you actually sit with a person, understand what their day looks like, how they eat sleep think feel. That’s where Ayurveda makes all the sense in the world to me. My clinical work revolves around women’s health—especially gynecology and infertility care. Many women who reach out to me have tried many things, felt confused or unheard. Whether it’s PCOS, irregular cycles, or just feeling “off” hormonally, I try to look at the root imbalance—agni, ama, ojas—basic Ayurvedic fundamentals that still explain modern conditions better than most charts or labels. Fertility support is something close to my heart… we don’t rush anything. It’s more like—let’s fix the ecosystem inside first. I also work with chronic skin and hair problems. Acne that just won’t leave, hyperpigmentation, postpartum hair loss, oily scalp with dandruff… and again, for these too, it’s usually not a skin problem. It’s digestion, stress, sleep, circulation—internal stuff showing up outside. We work with diet tweaks, gut reset, herbs, maybe some lepas or sneha therapy—but always after tuning into what your body wants. Outside my clinic I write a lot. I’m part of content teams that simplify Ayurveda into understandable bits—whether it’s about hormonal balance or skincare or daily routines. Writing has helped me reach people who aren’t ready to consult but want to start somewhere. And I think that matters too. I don’t believe in intense detoxes or piling on medicines. The work I do is slow, layered, sometimes messy—but that’s healing. That’s what I try to offer—whether someone walks in with hair loss or years of failed fertility cycles. Every body has its own story and my job’s just to hear it right. Maybe guide it back home.

Stress is one of the biggest antagonists of modern society. It plays an important role in reducing one’s productivity and affects both the physical and mental health of an individual. Stress could be the result of big changes in life or unavoidable circumstances even due to the pressure that is beyond the individual’s capabilities. Regardless of the reasons, stress acts as a grave inhibitor in leading a fulfilling and satisfying life. There are many ways to manage stress but Ayurveda’s approach to stress management is not only holistic but also involves building routines and regimens that help in solving the root cause of stress and not just the symptoms.

What Is Stress and Its Causes?

Stress is the natural response to any threats or challenges in one’s life. They are in a state of worry or mental tension in such situations. Stress is experienced by everyone to some degree and it is essential to make sure it has been dealt with. Stress is manifested due to many reasons like big changes in life or unavoidable circumstances even due to the pressure that is beyond the individual’s capabilities.

Stress affects both the mind and the body. A little bit of stress is good and can help us perform daily activities. Too much stress can cause physical and mental health problems which can overwhelm anyone resulting in a harder life compared to the ones that manage the stress.

Ayurvedic Approach to Stress Management

In order to achieve a balanced life, stress management is important. Of the many methods, the Ayurvedic approach to stress management plays a significant role in cultivating a holistic and fulfilling method.Ayurveda is a holistic system of medicine that originated in India thousands of years ago. It takes a whole-body approach to health and well-being and believes that stress is one of the main causes of disease. Ayurveda implies many methods to not only reduce the symptoms but also ensure that the root cause is identified and resolved and suggests lifestyle and other changes to ensure that this situation is not repeated again.

Some of the stress management through Ayurveda that’s followed by Ayurveda practitioners in accordance with its principles are:

Eating according to your Dosha can help balance your body and mind, reducing stress.

Get enough sleep: When we’re well-rested, we’re better able to cope with stress. Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep per night.
Learn to say no: Don’t be afraid to say no to things that you don’t have time for or that will add to your stress levels.
Take breaks: When you’re feeling stressed, take a few minutes to step away from whatever you’re doing and do something relaxing. This could be taking a walk, listening to music, or reading a book.

To incorporate yoga into your routine, start with just 10-15 mins each morning or evening. Try poses like child's pose or cat-cow, which relax your mind and body. Focus on your breath to calm the mind! Didn't mention it, but having a consistent time helps make it a habit. See how it syncs with your dosha too for best results :)

Start small, like 10 mins in the morning for yoga and a bit of mindful breathing before bed. Try adding breathing exercises during breaks at work. Keep it simple—maybe a YouTube guide to start. Just fit it in as it feels right for you, don't stress about it! Ayurveda sees the mind-body connect, so regular practice, even short, can really help.

For reducing stress through Ayurveda, focus on grounding, comforting foods. Warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg or ashwagandha helps. Favor cooked veggies like sweet potatoes, carrots, or asparagus, and whole grains like rice or oats. Avoid spicy or very cold foods , they can agitate your stress levels. Keep it simple & always listen to your body!
