Hello I truly understand how painful and exhausting it can feel when intrusive thoughts about a past relationship keep returning — even after you’ve started feeling better. What you’re experiencing is completely natural; the mind takes time to heal after emotional loss. So please don’t worry we are here to help you out😊
✅ AYURVEDIC TREATMENT PLAN
✅ INTERNAL MEDICATION
1. Manas Mitra Vatakam – 1 tablet twice daily with warm milk (Calms anxiety, controls intrusive thoughts, and improves sleep.)
2. Brahmi Vati – 1 tablet twice daily with warm water ( Enhances concentration, memory, and emotional balance./
3. Saraswatarishta – 20 ml with equal water after food twice daily ( Nourishes the nervous system, improves mood, and strengthens mental stability.)
4. Ashwagandha Churna – 1 teaspoon with milk at bedtime ( Reduces stress, improves sleep, and restores emotional strength.)
✅MIND–BODY PRACTICES
Morning Routine
Start your day with Abhyanga (self-massage) using sesame or Brahmi oil on the scalp and soles — this pacifies Vata and relaxes the mind. Sit quietly for 10 minutes, close your eyes, and repeat the mantra: Om Shanti Om — it invokes mental peace and grounding.or any mantra you belive in
Yoga Asanas- Balasana , Setu Bandhasana ,Viparita Karani Pranayama- Anulom Vilom, Bhramari
✅ DIET & LIFESTYLE GUIDELINES
✅ Include
Warm, nourishing foods: ghee, milk, rice, moong dal, cooked vegetables. Include herbs like turmeric, cinnamon, and basil. Fresh fruits (especially banana, pomegranate, and apple) to uplift mood.
❌ Avoid: Excess caffeine, sugar, spicy or fried food — they disturb Vata and Rajas. Overuse of social media or movies that trigger emotional memories.
Sleep Routine:
Maintain regular bedtime before 10:30 PM. Avoid screens 1 hour before sleep — read something calming or listen to soft instrumental music.
✅ MENTAL HEALING PRACTICES Write a gratitude journal each morning — list 3 things you’re thankful for. Practice forgiveness meditation: close eyes and mentally say I release the past with happiness Surround yourself with positive people or spiritual reading (Bhagavad Gita, Yoga Sutras, or inspirational books*). Spend 15 minutes in sunlight daily — it naturally elevates serotonin levels.
With calming herbs like Brahmi, Ashwagandha, and Saraswatarishta, regular self-care, and a sattvic routine, your thoughts will gradually settle, and inner peace will return.
Healing the mind is like strengthening a muscle — gentle, consistent effort brings stability and joy back.
Wishing you a good health 😊

Depression and other disorders related to the mind can only be treated when you make up ur mind to get rid of them.
❌ Try and avoid the trigger factors as much possible. Anxiety is a state of mind which you can surely control by altering your thoughts…
Just note the patterns n timings of the feeling and make yourself busy in that time… If you have nothing to do at that time simple do some physical activity or go for a walk or if it is possible for you concentrate on your breath(which most of the people find difficult to do)
🧘♀️ Anulomvilom and Bhramari Pranayam will help. But you have to do it early in the morning only.
❌ Donot get yourself into any addictions.
❌ Donot drink tea or coffee or aerated drinks.
❌ Reduce screen time… No screen in darkness and 1 hour before you sleep. Consume audio form of data rather than visuals before you sleep. Filter the content of data you consume… Let it be spiritual or positive…
✔️ Drink a glass of buffalo milk daily before you sleep; it will help you get a sound sleep.
✔️ 100 steps after both meals are must.
✔️ Eat only home cooked food… Avoid outside food, packed and processed food.
✔️ Prefer natural liquids like fruit juice, coconut water, lemon juice, kokum sharbat over packed ones.

HELLO,
After breakup, your mind is still trying to “process” painful memories. Even when you logically know the relationship wasn’t healthy, the emotional mind keeps replaying those scenes or thoughts These are called intrusive thoughts- unwanted mental images or memories that pop up repeatedly , causing sadness, anxiety, or guilt
In your case -depression symptoms low mood, energy, motivation show that your mental and physical energy are depleted -The constant replay of the past shows vata imbalance (restlessness, overthinking) and rajas tamas dominance (mental agitation and dullness)
ACCORDING TO AYURVEDA -The mind has three basic qualities -sattva (clarity, peace) -rajas (activity, passion, restless ness) -tamas (darkest, confusion , inertia)
-During emotional shock or breakup, rajas and tamas increase-> causing racing thoughts, sadness, withdrawal and self blame
AT THE PHYSICAL LEVEL -VATA DOSHA becomes disturbed -AGNI (mental and digestive fire) becomes weak-> leading to Ama (toxic residue) in both body and mind -This manasika ama clouds emotions, creating repetitive , obsessive, or sad thoughts
TREATMENT GOALS -stabilize and calm the nervous system balance vata -reduce intrusive thoughts -strengthen emotional resilence -improve sleep ,digestion and energy -restore confidence, clarity, and joy

Intrusive thoughts, especially after a breakup, are understandable and can be incredibly distressing. From an Ayurvedic perspective, these thoughts may be linked to an imbalance in the ‘Sadhaka Pitta,’ which governs emotions and the heart.
Firstly, focus on cooling and calming activities to balance Pitta. Avoid overly spicy, salty, sour foods as these can increase Pitta. Instead, eat more sweet, bitter, and astringent taste foods such as leafy greens, cucumber, and fruits like pears or melons. These help in soothing and calming the mind.
Incorporate practices like daily meditation or yoga, which can be particularly helpful in processing emotions and promoting mental clarity. Set aside a consistent time each day for just 10 minutes to practice a simple breathing exercise, such as ‘Nadi Shodhana’ (alternate nostril breathing), which help calm the mind and balances the doshas.
Herbal support can aid in this transition. Consider utilizing herbs like Brahmi or Ashwagandha, which are renowned for their adaptogenic properties, helping to manage stress and enhance cognitive function. You could prepare Brahmi tea by boiling the leaves and drinking it warm, ideally in the late afternoon.
Regular Abhyanga, self-massage with cool, grounding oils like coconut oil, done before a warm bath, can also be beneficial. This practice helps calm the nervous system and promote serenity. Applying Sandalwood oil on the forehead can be grounding and help with mental focus.
Ensure your Agni, or digestive fire, is strong and supports proper digestion of not just food, but emotions too. Avoid eating heavy or late meals, and keep meals regular. Sip warm water throughout the day to assist in detoxification and digestion.
Sleep is another crucial factor. Maintain a consistent sleep schedule, aiming for quality sleep between 10 pm and 6 am. Avoid screens at least an hour before bed, and create a relaxing bedtime routine that might include reading a calming book or listening to soothing music.
If these intrusive thoughts persist, consider seeing a professional Ayurvedic practitioner who can provide personalized care, reflecting your unique balance of the doshas, and guide you through this period.
