Doctors' responses

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your health concerns. At 67, it’s wonderful that you’re proactively monitoring your health. From your reports, I understand that: • SGPT (ALT) is at 97 and SGOT (AST) is at 47 – indicating mild to moderate liver stress or inflammation. Hemoglobin is 11.1 g/dL, and hematocrit is 33%, which points toward mild anemia.

Let me first reassure you: both of these issues can be managed naturally, especially when we support the body gently and holistically, as we do in Ayurveda.

In Ayurveda, the liver (Yakrit) is the seat of Ranjaka Pitta, the sub-dosha responsible for blood formation and transformation. When Pitta becomes aggravated—due to improper diet, chemical exposure (like medications), or emotional stress—it affects both the liver’s ability to detoxify and its role in blood building, which could explain both your elevated liver enzymes and anemia.

Also, low Agni (digestive fire) and Dhatukshaya (tissue depletion) are common in older age, leading to weakened Rasadhatu and Raktadhatu, which are responsible for nutrient absorption and healthy blood We will aim to: 1. Strengthen and soothe the liver 2. Rebuild healthy blood (Rakta dhatu) 3. Support digestion and nutrient absorption • Bhumi Amla (Phyllanthus niruri): Excellent for reducing SGPT/SGOT and healing liver tissues. • Take 1 tsp juice or 500 mg capsule twice daily after meals. • Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia): A rejuvenative herb that detoxifies liver and boosts immunity. • Use 1 tsp Guduchi churna or 500 mg capsule daily. • Kalmegh (Andrographis paniculata): A potent liver cleanser—can be taken as tablet or decoction under guidance. • Arogyavardhini Vati: A classical Ayurvedic formulation for liver health. Take 1 tablet twice daily after food, under supervision. • Avoid oily, fried, heavy, spicy foods. • Favor light, warm, easily digestible foods like: • Mung dal khichdi • Steamed vegetables • Warm cumin-coriander-fennel water • Include bitter and liver-cleansing foods: • Lauki (bottle gourd), neem, methi leaves, turmeric • Use cow ghee in small amounts – it nourishes and cools the liver. • Sleep early (by 10 PM), as liver rejuvenates at night. • Do gentle walking after meals to support metabolism. • Practice gentle Pranayama: especially Sheetali and Nadi Shodhana. • Draksha (black raisins): Soak 10–15 overnight and eat in the morning. • Beetroot juice with a pinch of rock salt – strengthens blood and improves iron. • Pomegranate (Anar) – daily consumption is beneficial for both blood and liver. • Amla juice – take 10 ml daily with water to boost iron absorption • Punarnava Mandur – for anemia, edema, and liver support • Lauh Bhasma or Navayasa Lauh – classical iron preparations; to be used carefully under supervision • Dhatri Lauh – gentle and nourishing iron tonic

Note: Always combine iron-rich foods with vitamin C (like lemon, amla) to improve absorption. Poor digestion in elderly age can be a hidden cause of anemia even if you eat well. • Take Hingvastak churna or Trikatu churna before meals (¼ tsp with warm water). • Sip jeera-coriander-fennel water throughout the day. • Avoid cold, dry, and raw foods that may suppress Agni.

If you can visit a good Ayurvedic center, therapies like Basti (medicated enema), Abhyanga (oil massage), and Pizhichil or Takradhara (for Pitta calming) can rejuvenate the liver, strengthen immunity, and improve overall health At 67, your body is wise, but it needs gentle care now. These imbalances are your body’s way of asking for better alignment. With the healing power of Ayurveda, supported by the right food, herbs, and lifestyle, your liver can recover and your blood can be nourished again.

Please be patient, loving, and consistent with these practices. I also recommend periodic monitoring of your blood levels to watch your healing progress.

If you’d like, I’d be happy to create a customized daily routine and meal plan for you based on your Prakriti (body constitution) and other symptoms.

Wishing you vibrant health, peaceful energy, and many more joyful years ahead.

With warm regards and healing blessings, Dr. M. Sushma Ayurvedic Doctor | Holistic Wellness Expert

I have gained comprehensive clinical experience through my internship and professional duties, which has laid a strong foundation for my medical practice. During my internship, I worked extensively across multiple departments, including casualty, general medicine, general surgery, and obstetrics & gynecology at the Government District Hospital, Gadag. This exposure allowed me to handle a variety of acute and chronic cases, sharpen my clinical assessment skills, and actively participate in patient management under the guidance of senior medical professionals. Following this, I served as a duty doctor at AYUSH Hospital, Gadag Betgeri, where I applied my Ayurvedic knowledge in a clinical setting and contributed to patient care in both outpatient and inpatient departments. I successfully completed 366 days of rigorous internship training at DGM Ayurvedic Medical College and Hospital, Gadag, where I was involved in patient evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment planning under supervision. My time there allowed me to integrate classical Ayurvedic principles with practical patient care while developing a keen understanding of hospital operations and multidisciplinary collaboration. These experiences have enhanced my ability to handle diverse medical conditions confidently while maintaining a patient-centered approach. I am dedicated to continuing my journey as an Ayurvedic practitioner with the same passion and commitment, focusing on delivering quality, evidence-based, and holistic healthcare.

To avoid Fried food, excess oil, spicy food, alcohol (if any),refined sugar, packed foods,heavy foods To do Warm water with 2 to 3 drops of lemon in the morning (gentle detox). Green leafy vegetables, bitter gourd, bottle gourd, Homemade buttermilk with roasted cumin and rock salt after meals Meds Livokot 1BD before food Arogyavardhini vati 1BD after food For Hb, Hematocrit Due to age factor it may be common for this kind of values.and also its not that much low may Due to lower absorption levels it may happens.

It sounds like there’s a few things going on here with your liver enzymes (SGPT and SGOT) being elevated, and also your anemia. In Ayurveda, liver health is often linked to Pitta dosha, and an imbalance might be present. The liver acts as a key Pitta organ and its imbalance can manifest in varied ways including increased SGPT/SGOT.

You can start by focusing on a Pitta-pacifying diet, as it helps in balancing the liver. Try to include more cooling and hydrating foods like cucumbers, watermelon, and leafy greens in your diet. Avoid excessive spicy, salty or oily foods which can aggravate the Pitta dosha. Drinking coconut water regularly can also have a cooling effect on the liver.

Anemia in Ayurveda is closely associated with low Agni or digestive fire, impacting the assimilation and transformation of nutrients. It’s important to enhance Agni by consuming easily digestible, nourishing meals. Consider incorporating iron-rich Ayurvedic herbs like Triphala - it not only helps with constipation which can accompany anemia, but also enhances iron absorption.

For your liver, an herb like Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia) is beneficial due to its hepatoprotective properties, you might consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner to get the right dosage.

Apart from diet, practice yoga postures like Matsyasana (Fish pose) and Supta Baddha Konasana (Reclining Bound Angle pose) which are supportive of liver and digestive health, without overdoing it. Ensure you’re keeping a regular sleep schedule too, as this is crucial for liver restoration.

However, considering your age and the possible seriousness of these laboratory findings, it’s absolutely necessary to work with your primary healthcare provider alongside these Ayurvedic recommendations—it ensures that any underlying health condition receive appropriate attention. Safe to say, combining conventional care with these natural approaches could be beneficial for a well-rounded treatment.

Dr. Prasad Pentakota
I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

Dr. Surya Bhagwati
I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with more than 28 years in this field — and trust me, it still surprises me how much there is to learn every single day. Over these years, I’ve had the chance to treat over 1 lakh patients (probably more by now honestly), both through in-person consults and online. Some come in with a mild cough, others with conditions no one’s been able to figure out for years. Each case brings its own rhythm, and that’s where real Ayurveda begins. I still rely deeply on classical tools — *Nadi Pariksha*, *Roga-Rogi Pariksha*, proper *prakriti-vikriti* mapping — not just ticking symptoms into a list. I don’t believe in ready-made cures or generic charts. Diagnosis needs attention. I look at how the disease behaves *inside* that specific person, which doshas are triggering what, and where the imbalance actually started (hint: it’s usually not where the pain is). Over the years I’ve worked with pretty much all age groups and all kinds of health challenges — from digestive upsets & fevers to chronic, autoimmune, hormonal, metabolic and degenerative disorders. Arthritis, diabetes, PCOD, asthma, thyroid... but also things like unexplained fatigue or joint swelling that comes and goes randomly. Many of my patients had already “tried everything else” before they walked into Ayurveda, and watching their systems respond slowly—but surely—is something I don’t take lightly. My line of treatment usually combines herbal formulations (classical ones, not trendy ones), Panchakarma detox when needed, and realistic dietary and lifestyle corrections. Long-term healing needs long-term clarity — not just short bursts of symptom relief. And honestly, I tell patients that too. I also believe patient education isn’t optional. I explain things. Why we’re doing virechana, why the oil changed mid-protocol, why we pause or shift the meds after a few weeks. I want people to feel involved, not confused. Ayurveda works best when the patient is part of the process, not just receiving instructions. Even now I keep learning — through texts, talks, patient follow-ups, sometimes even mistakes that taught me what not to do. And I’m still committed, still fully into it. Because for me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a lifelong responsibility — to restore balance, protect *ojas*, and help each person live in tune with themselves. That’s the real goal.

Dr. Ayush Varma
I am an Ayurvedic physician with an MD from AIIMS—yeah, the 2008 batch. That time kinda shaped everything for me... learning at that level really forces you to think deeper, not just follow protocol. Now, with 15+ years in this field, I mostly work with chronic stuff—autoimmune issues, gut-related problems, metabolic syndrome... those complex cases where symptoms overlap n patients usually end up confused after years of going in circles. I don’t rush to treat symptoms—I try to dig into what’s actually causing the system to go off-track. I guess that’s where my training really helps, especially when blending classical Ayurveda with updated diagnostics. I did get certified in Panchakarma & Rasayana therapy, which I use quite a lot—especially in cases where tissue-level nourishment or deep detox is needed. Rasayana has this underrated role in post-illness recovery n immune stabilization, which most people miss. I’m pretty active in clinical research too—not a full-time academic or anything, but I’ve contributed to studies on how Ayurveda helps manage diabetes, immunity burnout, stress dysregulation, things like that. It’s been important for me to keep a foot in that evidence-based space—not just because of credibility but because it keeps me from becoming too rigid in practice. I also get invited to speak at wellness events n some integrative health conferences—sharing ideas around patient-centered treatment models or chronic care via Ayurvedic frameworks. I practice full-time at a wellness centre that’s serious about Ayurveda—not just the spa kind—but real, protocol-driven, yet personalised medicine. Most of my patients come to me after trying a lot of other options, which makes trust-building a huge part of what I do every single day.

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

Dr. M.Sushma
I am Dr. Sushma M and yeah, I’ve been in Ayurveda for over 20 yrs now—honestly still learning from it every day. I mostly work with preventive care, diet logic, and prakriti-based guidance. I mean, why wait for full-blown disease when your body’s been whispering for years, right? I’m kinda obsessed with that early correction part—spotting vata-pitta-kapha imbalances before they spiral into something deeper. Most ppl don’t realize how much power food timing, digestion rhythm, & basic routine actually have… until they shift it. Alongside all that classical Ayurveda, I also use energy medicine & color therapy—those subtle layers matter too, esp when someone’s dealing with long-term fatigue or emotional heaviness. These things help reconnect not just the body, but the inner self too. Some ppl are skeptical at first—but when you treat *beyond* the doshas, they feel it. And I don’t force anything… I just kinda match what fits their nature. I usually take time understanding a person’s prakriti—not just from pulse or skin or tongue—but how they react to stress, sleep patterns, their relationship with food. That whole package tells the story. I don’t do textbook treatment lines—I build a plan that adjusts *with* the person, not on top of them. Over the years, watching patients slowly return to their baseline harmony—that's what keeps me in it. I’ve seen folks come in feeling lost in symptoms no one explained… and then walk out weeks later understanding their body better than they ever did. That, to me, is healing. Not chasing symptoms, but restoring rhythm. I believe true care doesn’t look rushed, or mechanical. It listens, observes, tweaks gently. That's the kind of Ayurveda I try to practice—not loud, but deeply rooted.

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

Dr. Narendrakumar V Mishra
I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.

Dr. Manjula
I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.

I am working as an Ayurvedic physician with a focus on practical, grounded care—I try to keep things as close to real-life healing as possible, not just theory. Most of the time, I deal with digestive issues, joint pains, hormonal shifts, lifestyle diseases—the kinds of problems that don’t just go away with one pill or one session. I look at the person’s prakriti first, what’s out of balance, where digestion’s breaking down or emotions are stuck, and then start building the treatment around that. Nothing cookie-cutter. My usual method blends classical Panchakarma therapies, simple diet fixes, some herbal meds, maybe routines that match the patient's nature—not always fancy, but it works. I'm not rigid with classical-only, though. If there's a modern wellness tool that fits the Ayurvedic logic, I don't mind adding it in. What matters is the *result*, right? I’ve done quite a bit of online consults too lately—guiding people remotely who didn’t know much about Ayurveda, and still managing to help them get their heads around what’s going wrong in their body. That’s honestly satisfying. Not everyone needs deep detox—sometimes just understanding their agni or daily habits does half the job. And yeah, I try to keep things clear, not preachy. I tend to go deep into patient stories. Not just the chart stuff—how they *feel* stuck or tired or anxious without knowing why. That part matters. Being able to connect and just listen without rushing, I guess that’s my nature. Ayurveda’s something I’m still growing with. I like to keep learning, not just from books but also from how real ppl respond to the treatments. It’s weird, but every case teaches me something new, makes me rethink my approach a bit. My goal’s simple: make Ayurveda easier to understand, and actually helpful for ppl who’re tired of masking symptoms and want long-term fix.
