Hello Ruth, could you please share more details about his diet, sleep patterns, and general behavior before and after the relocation? Additionally, has there been any significant stress or changes in the family environment? It would also be helpful to know if there are any digestive issues, skin rashes, or any other physical symptoms that could provide more insight into his current condition.
In Ayurveda, such behavioral changes could be linked to an imbalance in the Vata dosha, which governs movement and communication. The sudden change in environment might have disturbed his mental equilibrium, leading to restlessness and withdrawal from verbal communication. We may recommend a calming and grounding regimen to balance the Vata dosha, which could include herbal remedies such as Ashwagandha, Brahmi, or Shankhapushpi, known for their adaptogenic and calming properties.

Hello Ruth,
Your child's sudden speech regression after relocating may be due to language confusion, stress, or sensory overstimulation. Waitching Watching excessive screen content like Cocomelon at an early age can sometimes lead to delayed speech development or reduced social interaction.
Try limiting screen time and engaging in interactive play, storytelling, and songs in both the old and new languages. Encourage eye contact, face-to-face conversations, and social interactions with other children. Abhyanga (daily warm oil massage with Bala Ashwagandha oil) can help calm restlessness.
Does he respond to his name, follow instructions, or show frustration when trying to communicate? Any sensory sensitivities like avoiding eye contact, covering ears, or repetitive behaviors? If speech doesn’t improve, a speech therapist and Ayurvedic therapies like Nasya (Brahmi ghee) may be helpful.

It seems like you’ve got quite a situation on your hands! It's not uncommon for young children to experience changes in speech and behavior after a significant transition like moving to a new place, especially with a new language environment.
First things first, the switch of environmental and linguistic surroundings can be really overwhelming for a child. They might feel a little disoriented. Watching cocomelon, or a lot of screen time in general, might have made your child a little more passive in their interaction with the real world. Kids can tend to mimic, and sometimes watching hyperactive programming contributes to their restlessness.
In terms of Ayurveda, emotional well-being is crucial. You need to focus on balancing Vata dosha, as unpredictable shifts in environment can aggravate this element, leading to anxiety and restlessness. Here are an idea or two to help support your little one with this change.
Consider a daily routine, something predictable and comforting for him. A massage with warm sesame oil can help soothen Vata imbalances - just a gentle rub before bedtime could make him more grounded and calm. Encourage outdoor play, but in a calm, green environment. The sounds and textures of nature can really ground a child.
When it comes to diet, focus on warm, nourishing foods – maybe some homemade khichdi or soothing herbal teas like chamomile. Avoid any cold or raw foods as they can aggravate restlessness.
Oh, and a reduce in electronic usage would also be beneficially. Maybe instead explore story-telling or interactive games that engage him physically and mentally. You might also want to engage with someone who speaks both languages fluently to encourage a smooth lingual transition.
If his behavior seems more intense or persistening, do get in touch with a child specialist or therapist who can give you insights into speech development support. Balancing the mind-body complex will support his wellbeing through the tremulous times during the transition!
