Body shakes - #20379
I'm having shakes. It's not the whole body it's my hands . For example if I'm standing or sitting and I put pressure on my hands then they start to shake. It started of very slight but now it's getting worse.

The trembling in your hands, particularly when pressure is applied, can be, in an Ayurvedic perspective, often rooted in a Vata imbalance. Vata, one of the three doshas in Ayurveda, governs movement and the nervous system. An imbalance in this dosha can lead to symptoms such as tremors and shakiness. The reasons for Vata imbalances can range from lifestyle factors like irregular eating schedules, lack of sleep, or high stress levels, to dietary issues such as consumption of dry or processed foods.
First, consider your diet. Incorporate foods that are warm, oily, and grounding to pacify Vata. Think of cooked vegetables, whole grains, and nuts. Avoid cold, raw food and reduce intake of stimulants like caffeine, as they can aggravate Vata.
Daily routines are important for keeping Vata in check. Try to maintain a consistent schedule, ensuring 7-9 hours of sleep each night. Regular oil massages with sesame or almond oil can be very grounding and soothing for Vata-dominant individuals. Apply the oil warm to your body before a bath or shower.
For herbal support, consider ashwagandha, an adaptogen known for its calming properties. It can help stabilize the nervous system and bring balance to Vata. However, consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner for dosages and specific contraindications before starting any herbal supplements.
Meditation and pranayama (breathing exercises), specifically Ujjayi or alternate nostril breathing, can also help calm the mind and balance Vata energy. Aim to practice these daily for at least 10-15 minutes.
If you’re experiencing persistent or worsening symptoms, or if the trembling affects your daily life, it’s important to seek medical attention. It could be indicative of a neurological condition or other medical issues that may require conventional medical treatment alongside Ayurvedic management.
