It sounds like your cousin is dealing with some respiratory challenge, possibly related to asthma or allergies, which is not uncommon accordin to Ayurvedic principles. Let’s approach this from an Ayurvedic perspective keeping practical, personalized methods in mind.
Firstly, it’s important to understand that these symptoms could suggest an imbalance in the Kapha dosha, with possible involvement of Vata as well. Ayurvedic practice emphasizes balancing these doshas, targeting the root cause rather than just the symptoms.
Dietary Considerations: Since your cousin has diet allergies, pay special attention to what triggers these reactions. Support the digestive fire, or Agni, as it can be weakened in such conditions. Encourage a light, warm, easy-to-digest diet. Avoid cold, heavy, oily, and damp foods. Include ginger and turmeric in his meals, as they help boost immunity and reduce inflammation. Freshly prepared meals are preferred over leftovers.
Breathing Exercises: Pranayama can be very beneficial to improve lung function and reduce wheezing. Starting with Anulom Vilom and Bhramari pranayama daily, ideally in the morning or evening, can be effective. Begin with 5-10 minutes and gradually increase .
Herbal Remedies: Consider herbs like Tulsi (Holy Basil) which is known for its anti-inflammatory properties, and Licorice (Mulethi) which can soothe the respiratory tract. However, it’s important to consult with a local Ayurveda specialist for personalized dosages, especially in case of allergies.
Lifestyle Changes: Establish a regular sleep schedule, ensuring a calm environment to mitigate snoring. Warm mustard oil massaged on the chest before bed can help; consider this, but check for any skin sensitivities first.
Finally, if symptoms like wheezing or difficulty in breathing worsen, it’s crucial to seek immediate medical attention, as asthma attacks can be serious. Ayurvedic treatment can support overall health, but should complement rather not substitute critical medical care.
