Dear pratikji Thank you for having the courage to speak about your condition Stammering, especially from childhood, can deeply affect confidence, career opportunities, and personal development I understand, the emotional strain you have you have been carrying and anxiety that has built up over time due to this speech concern, you’re not alone, and more importantly, you’re not helpless. I want to assure you that. With consistent effort, proper practises, remarkable improvement is possible. Let us approach your concern with care and clarity, combining modern speed science with traditional Ayurvedic wisdom to offer you a complete path to speech fluency , self-confidence, and emotional calmness According to Ayurveda, point of view, chronic stammering referred to as vikrit vani or mooka is primarily a vata vyadhi a condition rooted in an imbalance of the VATA DOSHA, particularly in the UDAAN vayu which governs speech memory and expression when VATA becomes aggravated due to genetics, fear, anxiety, trauma, poor diet, or lifestyle habits. It causes disruption in the smooth coordination between the mind, nervous system, respiratory function and vocal l apparatus. This leads to issues like broken speech, reputations pronunciation, and blocks-commonly seen in stammering. Long-standing stying also affects the mental channel, often leading to stress, fear of speaking, low self-esteem and social withdrawal As you mentioned that the stammering has been present since birth making it a chronic condition Chronic VATA disorders are more deep rooted and require a multi dimensional approach, not just medicines, but behavioural therapy, breath, work, mind, training, and gradual speech correction You are also experiencing anxiety and reduced confidence -this are not separate issues but directly connected to your stammering. Wind speech becomes an obstacle in daily communication. It affects emotional strength and increases social tension. Therefore, we have to work on your speech and your mind Internal medicine Bag devi rasayan-1 teaspoon can be taken at night after food Choose slowly before swallowing Its sentence speech channels Calm Vata in the throat and mind improves clarity and control Manasamitra vatakam-one tablet daily at night with milk Anu tailam - one drop to each nostril twice daily on an empty stomach Ashwagandha churna+ Brahmi churna- Half teaspoon each with warm milk, at bedtime Continue this medicines for at least 3 to 6 months to allow deep healing

If possible try Panchkarma therapy near nearby centres, which will be more beneficial You can try shirodhara nasyakarma Abhyanga In addition to the above treatment Practice speaking, while exhaling slowly inhale deeply and begin speaking gently exhalation Use words like yes or OM in a slow prolonged manner like for example yyyyyyyeeeeeesssssss, Oooooooommmmmmmmmmm This else train the vocal system to release tension and reduce blocks Place one and on your belly and the other, and on your chest breathing deeply through the nose so that the belly rises more than the chest exhale slowly through the mouth This relaxes the diaphragm and improves the vocal rhythm Stand in front of a mirror, speak slowly and clearly to yourself with a smile Express positive affirmation like I speak confidently. I express myself calmly. I have control over my voice. Read newspaper daily Read aloud slowly, then sentence by sentence, then paragraph wise Do not rush, focus on clarity and rhythm, not speed Write a simple short speeches about yourself or any topic of interest Practice speaking them out loudly daily, as if delivering them to an audience Start alone, then with one close person and gradually with many Diet- Warm freshly prepared meals with Ghee, green, leafy vegetables, carrots, beats, pumpkin moongdal rice multigrain roti nuts fruits Herbal tea drink, plenty of warm water throughout the day Regular sleep Sleep before 10 PM and wake up before 6 AM Take early meals, no late night dinner Gentle physical activity like walking or yoga Avoid fried, oily, fermented, and stale food XST or coffee, cold drinks, my the junk food and packet food, heavy meals at night over sleeping or staying up late at night, afternoon nap. Stammering is not your identity. It is a condition and conditions can be improved and even overcome. Many successful people had speech difficulties, but with consistent practice, they turned it around. Do not avoid speaking situations, embrace them with courage Focus, moron, expressing yourself, clearly than being perfect Self acceptance is the foundation of feeling your valuable and worthy with or without speech I can finally say that with the discipline believe in yourself and consistent application of this integrated approach that is Ayurvedic support, breath, training, mental clarity, practices, and speech exercises you will experience is significant improvement in your speech, confidence, and emotional state Recovery may be gradual, but it is certain when you stay committed Wishing you strength clarity and full recover recovery

Hi pratik thanks for sharing your concern, I want to assure you that stammering is manageable and improvable - even if its been present from birth

1) SPEECH THERAPY- find a certified speech- language pathologist either locally or online for fluency shaping words and shuttering modification

2) self practice exercises can be done daily- breathing control- practice diaphragmatic breathing-10 minutes twice daily inhale deeply (count 4) , hold (count4) exhale slowly (count 6)

slow reading - read a passage slowly out loud everyday

mirror talk- talk to yourself in mirror for 5-10 minutes daily smile gently as you talk this will increase your confidence level

for example instead of K-K-K-KITE SAY Khhhh-ite in a long soft stretch

practice mindfulness meditation daily Brahmi can help reduce stress

ayurvedic support ( optional but very effective) Nasya with Brahmi oil instil 2 drops daily in both nostrils in morning

Brahmi vati- 1 tab daily at bed time

saraswarista- 15ml twice a day after food with ghee

tips- use pauses- silence is very useful smile before speaking- it relaxes your body and the listener prepare scripts for interview and practice multiple times acknowledge your stammering openly- it diffuses tension

thank you

Addressing stammering can indeed be challenging, but Ayurveda offers some insights to help you manage it more effectively. In Ayurvedic terms, stammering can be seen as an imbalance of Vata dosha, which governs communication and movement within the body. Here’s how you might begin to address this:

Firstly, let’s look into dietary management. Include Vata-pacifying foods in your daily intake. This means foods that are warm, moisturizing, and grounding. Favor cooked vegetables, whole grains like rice and oats, and healthy fats such as ghee or sesame oil. Avoid cold, dry, and rough foods as they might aggravate Vata, which can exacerbate stammering.

Incorporate practices like Abhyanga, which is a self-oil massage, using warm sesame or almond oil. Perform this in the morning before your shower, as it can help relax your nerves and reduce Vata imbalance.

Try engaging in Pranayama, especially the Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing). Doing this regularly for about 10 to 15 minutes a day can help calm the mind and improve clarity in speech. Another breathing exercise is Brahmari (bee breath), which has a soothing effect on the mind and nervous system.

Additionally, consider herbal remedies such as Brahmi and Ashwagandha, which are known to calm the mind and nervous system, though these should be taken under the guidance of a trained Ayurvedic practitioner to ensure it’s suitable for you.

Maintain a regular daily routine, going to bed and waking up at same times each day. A structured rhythm can stabilize Vata. Engage in regular physical activity, like gentle yoga, which supports your grounding and mental relaxation.

Finally, interacting with a speech therapist could be pivotal in your journey to improvement. They can provide specific techniques adapted to your needs, complementing Ayurvedic strategies. While Ayurveda offers holistic ways to balance your body and mind, professional speech therapy targets the mechanical aspects of speech.

Dr. Prasad Pentakota
ChatGPT said: 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. Hemanshu Mehta
I am Dr. Hemanshu—right now a 2nd year MD scholar in Shalya Tantra, which basically means I’m training deep into the surgical side of Ayurveda. Not just cutting and stitching, btw, but the whole spectrum of para-surgical tools like Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma... these aren’t just traditional, they’re super precise when done right. I’m not saying I know everything yet (still learning every day honestly), but I do have solid exposure in handling chronic pain issues, muscle-joint disorders, and anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, fistulas—especially where modern treatments fall short or the patient’s tired of going through loops. During clinical rounds, I’ve seen how even simple Kshara application or well-timed Agnikarma can ease stuff like tennis elbow or planter fasciatis, fast. But more than the technique, I feel the key is figuring what matches the patient’s constitution n lifestyle... like one-size-never-fits-all here. I try to go beyond the complaint—looking into their ahar, sleep, stress levels, digestion, and just how they feel in general. That part gets missed often. I honestly believe healing isn’t just a “procedure done” kind of thing. I try not to rush—spend time on pre-procedure prep, post-care advice, what diet might help the tissue rebuild faster, whether they’re mentally up for it too. And no, I don’t ignore pathology reports either—modern diagnostic tools help me stay grounded while applying ancient methods. It’s not this vs that, it’s both, when needed. My aim, tbh, is to become the kind of Ayurvedic surgeon who doesn't just do the work but understands why that karma or technique is needed at that point in time. Every case teaches me something new, and that curiosity keeps me moving.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
ChatGPT said: 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. Narendrakumar V Mishra
I have been practicing as a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician since 1990, with over three decades of clinical experience in treating a wide range of chronic and lifestyle-related health conditions. My core areas of focus include hair disorders, skin diseases, and lifestyle disorders such as diabetes, arthritis, and stress-related imbalances. Over the years, I have developed a patient-centric approach that emphasizes deep-rooted healing through authentic Ayurvedic principles. My treatment philosophy is based on understanding the unique constitution (prakriti) and imbalance (vikriti) of each patient, allowing me to craft individualized care plans using classical formulations, diet corrections, detox therapies (shodhana), and lifestyle modifications. Whether it’s persistent hair fall, recurring skin allergies, or long-term metabolic disorders, I aim to address the root cause rather than just suppress symptoms. In the management of lifestyle disorders like diabetes and arthritis, I integrate Ayurvedic medicines with structured dinacharya (daily routines) and ahar (dietary guidance), focusing on sustainable results and long-term wellness. I also work extensively with stress-related concerns, offering holistic strategies that incorporate mind-body practices, including meditation, herbal support, and counseling rooted in Ayurveda. With a strong foundation in traditional Ayurvedic texts and decades of hands-on experience, I remain committed to providing safe, natural, and effective healthcare solutions. My goal is to guide patients toward a balanced life, free from chronic ailments, through personalized treatment protocols that restore harmony to both body and mind.

Dr. Keerthana PV
I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.

Dr. Anjali Sehrawat
I am Dr. Anjali Sehrawat. Graduated BAMS from National College of Ayurveda & Hospital, Barwala (Hisar) in 2023—and right now I'm doing my residency, learning a lot everyday under senior clinicians who’ve been in the field way longer than me. It’s kind of intense but also really grounding. Like, it makes you pause before assuming anything about a patient. During my UG and clinical rotations, I got good hands-on exposure... not just in diagnosing through Ayurvedic nidan but also understanding where and when Allopathic tools (like lab reports or acute interventions) help fill the gap. I really believe that if you *actually* want to heal someone, you gotta see the whole picture—Ayurveda gives you that depth, but you also need to know when modern input is useful, right? I’m more interested in chronic & lifestyle disorders—stuff like metabolic imbalances, stress-linked issues, digestive problems that linger and slowly pull energy down. I don’t rush into giving churnas or kashayams just bcz the texts say so... I try to see what fits the patient’s prakriti, daily habits, emotional pattern etc. It’s not textbook-perfect every time, but that’s where the real skill grows I guess. I do a lot of thinking abt cause vs symptom—sometimes it's not the problem you see that actually needs solving first. What I care about most is making sure the treatment is safe, ethical, practical, and honest. No overpromising, no pushing meds that don’t fit. And I’m always reading or discussing sth—old Samhitas or recent journals, depends what the case demands. My goal really is to build a practice where people feel seen & understood, not just “managed.” That's where healing actually begins, right?

Dr. Karthika
I am currently a PG 2nd yr student in the dept of Shalakya Tantra at Parul Institute of Ayurveda and Research, batch 2024. I joined right after UG—no break—straight into PG (regular batch). I did my undergrad from Rajiv Gandhi Ayurveda Medical College (2017 batch, CCRAS syllabus under Pondicherry Univ). Somehow managed to secure 2nd rank university-wide back then, which I didn’t totally expect. Right now, my core interest lies in the Ayurvedic and integrative management of eye disorders. I’ve got decent exposure to both classical texts and clinical practice. From anatomy to pathology, I try to stay grounded in both the traditional Ayurvedic view and also the modern opthalmic understanding, especially with conditions related to the cornea, retina, and anterior segment. During PG deputation in 2nd year, I handled like 200+ OPD patients daily within 1–2 hrs (felt crazy at first but got used to the pace). I’m also trained hands-on in cataract and cornea surgeries under supervision. Not calling myself a surgeon yet, but I did get a good amout of surgical exposure in the PG postings. In terms of academics, I got 82% in the first-year PG exams—distinction score—secured department 1st and university topper at Parul Institute. Sometimes I do wonder if all this speed actually lets me go deep into each case but I’m learning to balance efficiency with proper patient care. Honestly I think that’s the biggest challenge in clinical ayurveda today—staying rooted in shastra while also being practically useful in today's overloaded OPDs. Anyway, still got a lot to learn, but I try to show up with clarity, humility and the will to keep improving every day.

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. Arpita Satish Wader
I am someone who’s kinda taken the long road through different corners of Ayurveda practice in Maharashtra—each place, each hospital, gave me something new to figure out. I’ve worked at Tarachand Ayurved Hospital in Pune, which honestly gave me some solid grounding, like hands-on stuff you can't just read in books. Then came Sassoon Hospital—AYUSH dept. there was different... faster pace, diff crowd, and yeah more challenges too. Spent time at Rural Hospital Jejuri near Pune, where things were a little rough but that’s where I got a feel for rural setups, you know, less tech more instinct. Then I was at Vishwaanil Ayurved Clinic in Vairag, Solapur—small place but packed with people who just trust Ayurveda. That kinda stayed with me. Lastly PIOS Hospital, Jaysinghpur in Kolhapur—more integrated work there, seeing how different systems meet but still keeping ayurvedic core intact. All these experiences kinda shaped how I treat now—sometimes I’ll go all classical with herbs n’ all, and other times, tweak it based on what’s real for that patient, that day. Nothing’s copy-paste. Every place taught me somthing different—some patience, some speed, some doubt also but yeah it helped me grow in ways I didn’t plan. Still learning. Always am.
