Doctors’ responses
Dear Masood
Thank you for opening up about what you have been going through panic attacks, anxiety, chronic stress, tiredness, and low stamina or not just mental health. They deeply affect your physical strength, emotional well-being and day to day life. I truly understand how exhausting and overwhelming it must feel to deal with all this continuously, especially when medications only bring short-term relief
According to Ayurvedic point of view, these are not separate problems, there are all signs of inner imbalance in the bodies, energy system, particularly in your VATA Doha (which governs the nervous system moment, thoughts, and breathing) when VATA become becomes aggravated, it leads to symptoms such as
Restlessness and racing thoughts Sudden fear, palpitation panic attack attacks Poor, sleep, or insomnia Body weakness Irregular direction or low appetite Shaking dizziness or tightness in the chest
In the chronic condition like years that is lasting up to more than four years, this imbalance leads to not just the mind, but also ani that is your digestive fire, Ojas(vital immunity, and strength) and the the manovaha srotas(channels, and mental flow) all this need to be rebuilt gradually and logically for lasting recovery
Ayurvedic understanding of your symptoms —
Your current state shows classical science of vata aggregation , possibly combined with —
Pitta imbalance(if you experience, irritability, anger, or heart flushes with anxiety) Low ojas (vitality) causing weakness, and low stamina Mental ama (toxic thoughts or emotional residue) Disturbed PRANA flow (life, energy disruption)
Ayurveda doesn’t suppress symptoms fixes. It works to restore harmony between your mind, body, and spirit, which brings true and permanent relief
How Ayurveda can help you internally
To heal this straight from within Ayurveda works on several layers
Balancing VATA DOSHA
Vata governs mental activity, breathing, and nervous impulses when imbalance it causes instability in thoughts, fear, sudden panic dry body, weak direction, and FATIGUE
You need herbs and practises that come warm, nourish and ground the body. This includes.
Ashwagandha- 1/4 tsp with warm milk cut night It calms anxiety strengthens the nervous system Brahmi vati - One tablet to be taken twice daily after food with warm milk It supports mental clarity reduces panic and restlessness Jatamamsi- It acts as a natural anxiety, herb, improves mode, and sleep
Improving Agni, that is digestive fire
Weak direction leads to FATIGUE, poor nutrition, absorption and AMA(toxins) which cloud the mind and reduce energy you should avoid cold, dry fried food instead eat fresh, warm, soft, cook meals, simple spices, like you cumin, ginger, turmeric, ajwain
Drink warm water throughout the day Early dinner before sunset Do not skip meals
You can take digestive support, herbs like- Hingwastaka churna-half teaspoon with water after food twice daily, which helps in gas, bloating or heaviness
Rebuilding ojas(vital energy)-
Your energy and stamina can be rebuilt by restoring ojas Low ojas often results from long-standing stress, overthinking, fear, or trauma
To build ojas- Include ghee, soaked almonds Warm milk with turmeric at night Use herbs like shatavari guduchi licorice and amla
Avoid excessive sex, fasting, cold exposure or over exercising Get proper rest, gentle sunlight, exposure, and loving relationships
Dinacharya hat is daily routine
Yes, table routine anchors vata and brings mental calmness
Try the following Before 7 AM Drink warm water upon waking up Light stretching or walk with calming music Oil massage, three times a week with sesame oil Avoid stimulants like tea, coffee and cold drinks, which further disturbs VATA Sleep by 10 PM with a calm mind and warm body
Sleep and relaxation
Sleep is your natural medicine to improve it Warm bath foot soak before bed Brahmi oil over this car, unlike massage to soles of feet Drink warm milk with a pinch of NUTMEG at bedtime Keep No phone after 9:30 PM Avoid negative content or skin exposure after sunset
You may be holding emotions for years like fear, gree pressure, guilt, these accumulate in the minds, subtle channels and create chaos

Try and avoid the trigger factors as much possible. Anxiety is a state of mind which you can surely control by altering your thoughts…
Just note the patterns n timings of the feeling and make yourself busy in that time… If you have nothing to do at that time simple do some physical activity or go for a walk or if it is possible for you concentrate on your breath(which most of the people find difficult to do)
Anulomvilom and Bhramari Pranayam will help. But you have to do it early in the morning only.
Donot get yourself into any addictions. Donot drink tea or coffee or aerated drinks.

Depression and other disorders related to the mind can only be treated when you make up ur mind to get rid of them.
What you should do: Avoid all triger factors. Whenever you fell something is triggering you do either some physical activity or concentrate of your breath.
Daily workout is important.
AnulomVilom, Bhramari, Sitali, Kapalbhati all these pranayams to be done early in the morning.
Reduce screen time… No screen in darkness and 1 hour before you sleep. Consume audio form of data rather than visuals before you sleep. Filter the content of data you consume… Let it be spiritual or positive… too much motivation can also cause depression.
Drink a glass of buffalo milk daily before you sleep; it will help you get a sound sleep.
100 steps after both meals are must.
Eat only home cooked food… Avoid outside food, packed and processed food.

To address the anxiety and panic attacks you’re experiencing, it’s important to explore Ayurvedic approaches that offer more sustainable relief. The fatigue and low energy you’re feeling are likely connected with imbalances in your doshas, often pointing towards an aggravated Vata or sometimes the influence of Pitta if stress is a trigger.
Firstly, consider incorporating Ashwagandha, an adaptogenic herb revered in Ayurveda. This can help calm the nervous system and reduce anxiety. You might take 500mg-1gm of Ashwagandha powder with warm milk twice a day in the morning and evening. It’s gentle and helps to balance Vata dosha while building stamina and energy.
When it comes to diet, favor warm, nourishing foods like kichari (a dish made from rice and lentils), and use spices such as turmeric, cumin, and ginger to support digestion and calm Vata. Avoid cold, raw foods, and caffeine, as they can increase anxiety. Ensure that you have regular meals to maintain stable energy levels.
Practicing Abhyanga (self-oil massage) with warm sesame oil before showering can be very grounding. This daily ritual supports the reduction of stress and fatigue. Just apply the oil generously over your body and let it sit for about 20-30 minutes before rinsing off. This nurtures the nervous system and stabilizes Vata.
Incorporate Pranayama - specifically, Anulom Vilom (alternate nostril breathing) for about 5-10 minutes daily. This technique harmonizes the pranic energy and offers immediate calming effects for the mind and body.
For your routine, prioritize good sleep hygiene. Try to wind down with a gentle herbal tea like chamomile or Brahmi before bed. Establish a consistent sleep schedule, aiming to retire by 10 PM, which aligns with Vata times and aids restorative rest.
Remember, while these Ayurvedic practices can significantly support your mental health, continue working with a healthcare provider for any necessary medications or therapies. Make these changes gradually, integrating them into your daily routine in a way that suits your lifestyle.
