Hello Sapna ji Thank you for sharing your concern. I completely understand how unsettling nighttime palpitations and stress-related blood pressure changes can feel but dont worry we are here to help you out😊

✅AYURVEDIC PLAN OF MANAGEMENT

✅INTERNAL MEDICATION

✅For Palpitations, Anxiety, and Stress Relief:

1 Saraswatarishta – 15 ml with equal water twice daily after meals. (Calms the mind, supports sleep, and reduces overthinking.)

2 Mukta Vati – 1 tablet twice daily after meals. (Excellent for mild hypertension and palpitations due to stress.)

3 Ashwagandha Capsule – 1 cap twice daily with warm milk. (Balances Vata and supports emotional resilience.)

4 Brahmi Vati (Gold) – 1 tablet at bedtime with milk ( Nourishes the nervous system and improves sleep.)

👉 Optional (if anxiety is high):

Manasmitra Vatakam – 1 tablet at bedtime.

✅EXTERNAL THERAPIES (Very Effective)

Abhyanga (Oil Massage) with Ksheerabala Taila before bath (2–3 times a week). ( Calms Vata, improves sleep, and balances heart rhythm.)

✅DIET MODIFICATION

✅ Include

Warm, soft, and slightly oily foods — khichdi, moong dal soup, ghee, milk with nutmeg or saffron.

Fresh fruits like banana, pomegranate, and apples.

Herbal tea made from Arjun bark + Brahmi + Jatamansi once daily.

Include cow’s ghee (1 tsp) daily – nourishes Majja Dhatu and calms Vata.

❌Avoid:

Tea, coffee, alcohol, spicy/sour foods. Late-night work or phone use before sleep. Empty stomach and skipping meals — it disturbs Vata further.

✅Lifestyle & Stress Management

Practice Abhyanga (self-oil massage) and early dinner by 7:30 pm. Sleep by 10 pm to balance Vata dosha. Pranayama: Anulom Vilom – 7–10 rounds morning & night. Sheetali / Sheetkari – 3–4 minutes to cool Pitta and reduce BP. Meditation or listening to soothing mantras before bedtime. Gentle evening walks under moonlight calm both heart and mind.

Wishing you a good health😊

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

HELLO SAPNA,

You’re experiencing palpitations (feeling your heart beating fast or hard, especially at night) and slightly raised blood pressure. At the same time, you mention stress, overthinking, emotional hurt, and disturbed sleep- all of which have deep effects on the heart and mind

In Ayurveda, this is mainly due to an imbalance in two doshas

VATA imbalance= causes anxiety, restlessness, irregular heartbeat,insomnia

PITTA imbalance= causes irritability, anger, heat in the body, high bp

When vata and pitta become disturbed together, it affects the Hridya (heart) and Manovaha srotas (mental channels)- leading to stress- induced palpitations and mild hypertension

TREATMENT GOALS -calm the nervous system -reduce emotional heart, irritability -strengthen the heart -improve sleep and relaxation -prevent further rise in bp

INTERNAL TREATMENT

1) ARJUNARISHTA= 20 ml + equal wtaer twice daily after meals for 2 months =strengthen heart muscles, regulates heart rhythm, lowers bp

2) BRAHMI GHRITA= 1 tsp twice daily after meals for 2 months =improves mental calmness, memory, and emotional stability

3) SARPAGANDHA VATI = 1 tab at night = reduces bp naturally mild sedative

4) PUNARNAVA MANDUR= 1 tab twice daily after meals for 2 months = improves circulation, and kidney function controls Bp

5) MUKTA PISHTI= 125 mg with honey twice daily for 1 month =cooling, heart tonic, relieves palpitations and anxiety

EXTERNAL THERAPIES

1) OIL MASSAGE= warm sesame oil all over body gentle circular strokes on chest, back and feet daily = calms vata, relaxes nerves, reduces palpitations

2) NASYA= instill 2 drops of cow ghee in each nostril in morning daily = nourishes nervous system, balances hormones

3) FOOT MASSAGE= warm ghee before bed daily = improves sleep ,reduces night palpitations

HOME REMEDIES -Arjuna bark tea= boil 1 tsp Arjuna bark powder in 2 cups water, reduce to 1 cup , add honey after cooling, drink once daily -Tulsi + brahmi tea= calms nerves and supports the heart -Garlic 1-2 cloves- raw or lightly roasted with ghee daily for bp and heart strength -Coriander + fennel water= strain and drink in morning -soaked almonds 3-4, and raisins 5-6= nourish the brain and heart -warm milk with nutmeg or cardamom before bed- improves sleep and reduces anxiety

YOGA ASANAS -tadasana= improves posture and ciruclation -vrikshasana= balances body and mind -setu bandhasana= strenghtens heart -shavsana= total relaxation -vajrasana after meals= aids digestio and reduces pitta

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= balances both hemispheres of brain-> 10 min daily -Bhramari= excellent for calming the mind ad heart-> 5-10rounds before sleep -sheetkari/sheetali= 5 min in morning and afternoon

MEDITATION -15-20 min morning and evening -focus on your breath or chant “om shanti” slowly -helps breaks the overthinking anxiety cycle

DIET -warm, soft, nourishing foods -cooked vegetables like bottle gourd, ridge gourd, pumpkin, spinach -moong dal khichdi, puma, porridge, soups -fruits= pomegranate, baanana, sweet apple, papaya -cow’s milk, ghee, almonds, raisins, coconut water

AVOID -spicyy, fried, salty , sour or heavy foods -excess coffee, tea, alcohol, and tobacco -cold foods or drinks, ice creams, soft drinks -skipping meals or eating under stres

LIFESTYLE -maintain fixed sleep and meal times -avoid late nights -limit screen time especially before bed -practice positive self talk and gratitude -spend time in nature or do daily morning walks -avoid rusting, multitasking, or reacting immediately to emotional triggers

Your condition is manageable and reversible with consistent ayurvedic care and stress control The key lies In calming your mind, balancing emotions, and nourishing your heart- not just takin medicine Be patient- Ayurveda heals from the root, so changes take a few weeks but are long lasting

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Experiencing nighttime palpitations and elevated blood pressure can be concerning, especially when combined with stress and emotional factors. From an Ayurvedic perspective, these symptoms often indicate an imbalance in Vata dosha, which governs mental activity, circulation, and movement in the body. Here’s how you can work towards restoring balance and managing your symptoms:

Firstly, addressing your blood pressure is crucial. Ayurveda suggests incorporating Ashwagandha in your daily routine due to its adaptogenic properties. You can take it in powdered form, about 1 teaspoon mixed with warm milk or water, preferably before bedtime to promote relaxation and support. Try Brahmi, known for its calming effects on the mind, which can help reduce stress and overthinking. A decoction or tea made from the Brahmi leaves, consumed in the morning and evening, might be beneficial.

Your diet plays a significant role; aim to consume warm, cooked meals that are easy to digest, like kichari, consisting of rice and lentils, which can stabilize Vata. Avoid cold, raw foods and stimulants like caffeine and instead incorporate more nourishing and grounding foods such as root vegetables and ghee.

Incorporate a regular routine with Abhyanga, or self-massage, using warm sesame oil, which calms Vata and promotes relaxation. Before showering, spend about 15 minutes massaging your body in circular motions. Additionally, breathing exercises like Anulom Vilom (alternate nostril breathing) can be practiced for 10–15 minutes daily to calm the mind and regulate blood pressure.

Regular sleep is essential. Try to establish a bedtime routine that includes turning off screens at least an hour before bed, diffusing calming essential oils like lavender, and going to bed by 10 pm when possible. Avoid overly stimulating activities right before sleep to help settle your mind.

If symptoms persist or worsen, be open to consulting with a healthcare professional for a thorough examination and to rule out any underlying heart conditions, which is extremely important. This integrated approach may help maintain your health, but ongoing medical supervision should not be ignored given your symptoms.

For managing nighttime palpitations and blood pressure, we can look through the lens of Siddha-Ayurvedic principles to create a holistic plan. Your symptoms suggest a vata-pitta imbalance. Overthinking, stress, and emotional turbulence often aggravate vata dosha, while palpitations may indicate heightened pitta. To address these imbalances, start with calming the mind and body to reduce stress levels.

Begin by implementing a daily routine incorporating practices like Abhyanga, or self-massage with warm sesame oil, which can be grounding and reduce vata. Do this each morning for around 15 minutes before bathing. At night, consider a warm bath with a few drops of lavender or sandalwood oil to soothe pitta. This helps promote relaxation; aiding sound sleep.

In terms of diet, focus on warm, cooked meals that are easy to digest. Favor sweet, sour, and salty tastes, avoiding stimulants like caffeine and excessive spices, which might aggravate pitta. Include foods like oatmeal, stew, and soups. Herbal teas with chamomile or peppermint can be calming.

Additionally, breathing exercises such as Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) can be very effective. Practice this daily for 10-15 minutes, preferably twice a day to stabilize vata and calm the mind.

Keep an eye on your blood pressure readings; if they continue to rise or stay elevated, consulting a healthcare provider is prudent to rule out any underlying concerns. Techniques for stress management, like mindfulness or yoga, practiced regularly, can deeply help manage palpitations linked to heightened emotions. Remember, integrating these practices consistently is key to achieving balance and supporting well-being.
