What Does It Mean to Be an Alcoholic and How Can Ayurveda Help in Overcoming Alcoholism? - #15106

I’ve been struggling with alcohol for a while now, and after some recent health issues and conversations with my family, I’m beginning to accept that I may be an alcoholic. I often drink more than I intend to, and it’s starting to affect my work, relationships, and overall health. I’ve tried to quit several times, but I always seem to fall back into old habits. I’m really looking for a more holistic, natural approach to overcoming alcoholism, and I’ve heard that Ayurveda can offer support in this area. I’m interested in learning how Ayurvedic remedies can help break the cycle of alcohol dependence. Are there any herbs or treatments that can help reduce cravings for alcohol, detoxify the liver, and restore balance to my body? I’ve heard that Ashwagandha, Turmeric, and Brahmi might help with mental clarity and detoxification—could these herbs support my journey to recovery from alcoholism? In addition to herbs, I’m curious if there are Ayurvedic lifestyle changes or dietary recommendations that can help restore balance to my body and support my recovery process. Should I focus on cleansing and detoxifying foods, or are there specific practices like meditation or yoga that can help strengthen my resolve to stay sober? Has anyone here struggled with alcoholism and found relief through Ayurvedic remedies? What herbs, dietary changes, or lifestyle habits helped you overcome the addiction naturally?
