What Are the Benefits of Shirovasti in Ayurveda? How Does It Help in Mental Clarity and Stress Relief? - #13370
I’ve been dealing with chronic stress and mental fatigue, and I am interested in trying Shirovasti, an Ayurvedic therapy known for its ability to improve mental clarity, relieve stress, and enhance cognitive function. Shirovasti involves pouring medicated oil on the head while a cap is placed to keep the oil in place, allowing the oil to absorb and heal the nervous system. Ayurveda believes that Shirovasti can help with Pitta imbalances, which often lead to mental strain, anxiety, and restlessness. I want to know how Shirovasti can benefit not just in stress reduction, but also in overall mental wellness. Some reports suggest that it helps in calming the mind, improving concentration, and balancing emotions. I’m curious whether it works for conditions like insomnia, anxiety, and even headaches caused by mental exhaustion. If anyone has tried Shirovasti, please share your experience. Did it help with improving focus, reducing anxiety, or providing better emotional balance? How long did it take to feel the effects, and how frequently do you recommend the treatment for best results?
