Overwhelming fear,brain oxygen level,disinterest,numbness - #25586

Vashishta

First off I wanna thank the Ayurveda community for being so helpful to the world. 1. I am destroyed by my elder kins ( jija and bhai ) ,5 years ago they snatched my property and did physical abuse on me through their connections. I underwent physical and mental totrture for 2 years, but ever since I have become very coward, even a shout from a random guy will force me into submission, anybody can snatch my belongings, Ashwagandha rista was helpful though but not to the satisfaction.when I wake up I feel extremly angry and keep thinking of the hardest two years when I wasn't able to feed myself.i underwent allopathic psychiatry treatment for these but their treatment and bills never seem to cease. 2.whenever I experiance wet dreams I feel relaxation throughout the day and my emotions are back substantially or though very rare i Sit infront of shivling experiance the same relaxation. PS- kindly advise me the most strengthful medicines as many products lack the required strenghth

HELLO VASHISHTA,

Thank you for courageously sharing your story. The kind of trauma and betrayal you’ve experienced can leave deep scars- mentally, emotionally, and physically. it’s important that healing addresses all levels of your being- Manas(mind), sharira(body), and Atma(spirit).

AYURVEDIC DIAGNOSIS BASED ON SYMPTOMS

OVERWHEKMING FEAR= aggravated prana vata, disturbed manovaha srotas

NUMBNESS, EMOTIONAL FLATNESS= tamas domination + Ojas kshaya

PHYSICAL ABUSE AND TRAUMA= vata-pitta vitiation-> creates dryness, rage, instability

ANGER UPON WAKING= subtle pitta Dushti in sadhaka pitta(emotional fire)

RELIEF FROM WET DREAMS/ SHIVLING DARSHAN= indicative of apana vata + Ojas + spiritual alignment momentarily opening manovaha srotas.

This is not ordinary anxiety or depression. Its a post traumatic vata - pita - tamasic imbalance involving depletion of Ojas, memory, stability, and emotional resilience.

INTERNALLY START WITH

*MORNING(sattva restoration)

5-6 am= CHYAWANPRASHA = 1 tsp with lukewarm water

6 am= BRAHMI GHRITA= 1 tsp in warm milk

7 am= KALYANAK GHRITA(every alternate days)= 1 tsp with warm milk

*AFTER MEALS= SARASWATARISHTA= 15 ml with water =balances memory, speech , mood

CHOOSE AUTHENTIC BRANDS= ARYA VAIDYA SALA, AVP, VAIDYARATNAM, OR BAIDYANATH

*MIDDAY PROTOCOL(NADI AND MANAS SUPPORT)

2PM= SMRITI SAGAR RAS= 1 tab with water

3PM= JATAMANSI CAPSULE= 500mg for calming nerve and fear

*NIGHT PROTOCOL(VATA SHAMANA AND SLEEP REGULATION)

8PM= MANAS MITRA VATAKAM= 1 tab with warm milk

9PM= ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp in milk add pinch of nutmeg+cardamom

9:30PM= SHANKPUSHPI SYRUP= 1 tbsp aids deep sleep, mental clarity

SELF OIL MASSAGE WITH BALA ASHWAGANDHADI TAILA FOLLOWED BY HOT WATER BATH

DIET TO BE FOLLOWED FOR EMOTIONAL AND OJAS RECOVERY

-ghee + warm milk= restores Ojas, sleep - moong dal khichdi= easily digestible, vata pacifying -boiled root vegetables(beet, sweet potato)= grounding - soaked almonds , raisins, dates= build Ojas - ash gourd juice(early morning)= calms mind and nervous heat

AVOID STRICTLY -caffeine , fried food, cold foods -garlic/onion in excess= disturbs manas in trauma - late night meals - overthinking and isolation after 8 pm

SPIRITUAL AND EMOTIONAL HEALING you already found shivling Darshan soothing . that is a direct sign from your inner self.

JAPA OF “OM NAMAH SHIVAY”= 108 times daily with rudraksha Mala =purifies deep karmic pain and shame

TRATAKA(candle gazing)= 5-10 min before sleep = removes tamas from mind

AGNIHOTRA= fire ritual at sunrise/sunset = deep vibrational cleansing

YOGA NIDRA = before bed =brings safety, body reconnection

READING FROM BHAGWAT GEETA OR SHIVA PURAN= 1-2 verses per day =emotional strengthen and clarity

LIFESTYLE SUPPORT -wake up with brahma muhurta - daily walking barefoot on ground grass - sleep before 10 pm

Vashishta, your experience was unjust- but your strength to speak now is divine. The path of Ayurveda + inner spiritual discipline will not only HEAL you but transform your inner power

This protocol is strong, if you begin it with sincerity and consistency- even 50% - you’ll notice change within 30-40 days

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

IF YOU CAN TRAVEL TO A CENTRE, PANCHAKARMA , REQUESR A 21- DAY PROGRAM FOR POST TRAUMATIC VATA PITTA IMBALANCE

BASTI(medicated enema)= 5-8 days = deep vata correction

hello Vasishta, Thank you for your honesty and truly, I’m so sorry that you had to go through all this. The kind of betrayal and trauma you’ve faced, especially from those closest to you, can shake the very foundation of your self-worth, confidence, and mental resilience. And when emotional trauma isn’t addressed deeply, it doesn’t just live in your mind it settles in your nervous system, your Prana (life force), and your Manovaha Srotas (mental channels), as we describe in Ayurveda. What you’ve explained the fear, sudden submission, suppressed anger, dependency on certain triggers for relaxation all show signs of Vata imbalance in the mind (Prana Vayu vitiation) and Ojas depletion (the core vitality).

Let me say this clearly: you are not broken. What you’re feeling is the nervous system trying to protect you it’s not weakness, it’s trauma held too long in your tissues. Ayurveda can absolutely help rebuild your mental strength, emotional courage, and clarity not with suppressants, but by grounding your Vata, rejuvenating your Ojas, and stabilizing Prana.

Also, that moment of relaxation you feel after wet dreams or while sitting before Shivling is not random it’s your Ajna Chakra and Apana-Prana balance temporarily restoring. Your mind finds stillness there. We’ll build on that to make it last longer.

Prescription (Strong Medhya + Ojas Restorative Protocol)

Ashwagandha Avaleha – 1 tsp with warm milk twice daily Saraswatarishta (with gold if affordable) – 15 ml with equal water twice daily after meals Manasmitra Vatakam (Gold if affordable) – 1 tab at bedtime with milk Brahmi Ghrita – ½ tsp early morning on empty stomach with warm water

Nasya with Kshirabala Taila (101) – 2 drops in each nostril daily morning Abhyanga (self-massage) with Bala Ashwagandhadi oil before bath — 4x weekly

Sit in front of Shivling or Tulsi plant for 10 minutes daily after sunrise — don’t rush this part; this is your healing anchor. Supportive practices Avoid cold food, skip raw salads or fridge water — this worsens mental Vata Include cow’s ghee, soaked almonds, dry dates, and warm milk with nutmeg daily Play Vishnu Sahasranamam or Rudram daily in background, even if you don’t chant it Do not sleep late, even if you lie down without sleep — sleep timing resets trauma

Optional investigations (if not done recently) Serum Vitamin D3 and B12 Thyroid profile Serum testosterone (if libido or energy is low) Blood glucose and lipid profile (to check Ojas-supportive factors)

You’ve already survived the worst. Now it’s time to rebuild — not like before, but stronger, calmer, and clearer. Ayurveda won’t rush this, but with consistent use of strength-giving Rasayanas, you will absolutely regain your inner steadiness.

If you have any doubts, you can contact me. Take care, regards, Dr.Karthika.

Thank you for your kind words.Vitamin d3 and Hdl cholesterol ratio are low. LDL Ratio is high. Blood testerone is high by 400 score

Hi Vashishta , Thank you for updating me — that means you’re already taking charge of your healing, which itself shows your inner strength is rising again.

So based on your test results: • Low Vitamin D3 and low HDL (good cholesterol): These are common in chronic stress, poor sleep, and irregular digestion. They’re signs that your Ojas (vitality) and Dhatu formation are not optimal yet — but they can definitely improve with the Rasayanas we’ve started. • High LDL (bad cholesterol): This reflects some Rasa-Rakta Dhatu Dushti and sluggish liver metabolism — it can be brought down by gently improving Agni and clearing Ama. • Testosterone high by 400 score: This may sound surprising, but it often happens when the body is under emotional suppression or chronic survival mode — the body overdrives certain hormones to protect itself. It’s not something to panic about unless symptomatic (like aggression, acne, or sleep issues). We’ll balance this by grounding Vata and cooling excess Pitta.

So overall, your current protocol is quite on track. But I’ll make a small addition and swap now:

Updated Prescription: 1. Ashwagandha Avaleha – continue 2. Saraswatarishta – continue 3. Manasmitra Vatakam – continue 4. Brahmi Ghrita – continue 5. Nasya + Abhyanga – continue

Now ADD: 6. Chandraprabha Vati – 1 tab twice daily after food (supports cholesterol metabolism, stabilises mood, strengthens kidneys) 7. Arjuna Ksheerapaka (or Arjuna Churna in milk) – 1 tsp boiled in 1 glass milk + 1 glass water till reduced to half. Take at bedtime. (helps regulate LDL, calms heart, supports sleep and Ojas) 8. Vitamin D3 supplement (Ayurvedic like Haridra-based D3 or as per allopathic dose) — once a week for 2 months.

Keep doing what you’re doing with faith and consistency. Nothing in your body is broken — it’s simply trying to reset after long years of holding pain inside. We are gently peeling away those layers.

If you ever feel stuck, overwhelmed, or even unsure — just write to me.

Thank you for the detailed response. I have been taking vitamin d supplement for three month so the condition is highly unlikely due vitamin d. And I forgot to mention some concerning things. 1.excessive sweating esp around forehead and eyes. 2. Pain in and around chest during stressful situations and involunatirly running away without even realizing. 3. Pain in veins around navel area. 4. Strange fear between 2 Am-3AM I usually stay awake till 3 probably due to high testerone. 5. Feeling of vomitting during meals Though irrelevant, when I mentioned dreams of being chased by snake met an astro-vaid who told me that migraine attacks and pain in lower abdemen during childhood are connected to these conditions, but wasn’t relieved by his herbal remedies though

The experiences you’ve described are affecting you deeply, and while it’s clear you’re seeking strength and resilience, Ayurveda can provide some pathways that may help you cope better, emotionally and physically. Given your experiences, I’d recommend looking into a holistic approach that targets both mind and body, which will offer longer-lasting relief.

Grappling with such a traumatis art worth focused measures. Firstly, introduce Brahmi into your routine; it’s a potent herb recognized for enhancing cognitive function and combating stress. You can consume Brahmi powder with warm milk every night before bed. It’s gentle yet incredibly effective in modulating stress and promoting mental clarity.

Ashwagandha churna can be continued; though you might try it in a different form – like a tincture or a capsule, sometimes they offer different bioavailability. Evening’s a good time to take Ashwagandha, with warm milk, to bolster its calming effects.

Dietarily, nurturing your Agni (digestive fire) is pivotal. Incorporate ginger tea into your day, sip it about 20 minutes before meals to enhance digestion and warm the body, which can be soothing. Favor meals that are simple but nourishing, like kichari (a mix of rice and lentils) to sustain your energy without complicating digestion. Too spicy or heavy foods might overwhelm the system now.

Pranayama and Yoga practice can also provide mental peace. Consider deep breathing (nadi shodhan), it balances the energies in your body and clears mental clutters. Spending time in nature, if possible, can also offer tranquility and comfort.

While herbal remedies can bring relief, please ensure that you’re integrating these suggestions with ongoing professional psychological support, given the depth of your experiences. A mental health professional can support the healing alongside these Ayurvedic practices. Remember, healing doesn’t always happen at a quick pace, so kindness to yourself will be an important companion on this path.

Thanks,Ginger tea before meals is doing its job .but I found brahmi ghrita and awagandharista to work better than powder. I have undergone prescription medicines for 6 months back then I wanted to save time. I fear combining these herbs with those drugs may cause serious side effects.

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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. Nisha Bisht
I am an Ayurvedic physician with over 10 years of real, everyday experience—both in the clinical side and in managing systems behind the scenes. My journey started at Jiva Ayurveda in Faridabad, where I spent around 3 years juggling in-clinic and telemedicine consultations. That time taught me how different patient care can look when it’s just you, the person’s voice, and classical texts. No fancy setups—just your grasp on nidan and your ability to *listen properly*. Then I moved into a Medical Officer role at Uttaranchal Ayurved College in Dehradun, where I stayed for 7 years. It was more than just outpatient care—I was also involved in academic work, teaching students while continuing to treat patients. That phase really pushed me to re-read things with new eyes. You explain something to students one day and then end up applying it differently the next day on a patient. The loop between theory and practice became sharper there. Right now, I’m working as Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital (part of the Shivalik Ayurved Institute in Dehradun). It’s a dual role—consulting patients *and* making sure the hospital ops run smooth. I get to ensure that the Ayurvedic care we deliver is both clinically sound and logistically strong. From patient case planning to supporting clinical staff and overseeing treatment quality—I keep an eye on all of it. Across all these years, my focus hasn’t changed much—I still work to blend classical Ayurved with today’s healthcare structure in a way that feels practical, safe and real. I don’t believe in overloading patients or selling “quick detox” ideas. I work on balancing doshas, rebuilding agni, planning proper chikitsa based on the person’s condition and constitution. Whether it’s lifestyle disorders, seasonal issues, chronic cases, or plain unexplained fatigue—I try to reach the cause before anything else. I still believe that Ayurved works best when it’s applied with clarity and humility—not overcomplicated or oversold. That’s the approach I carry into every patient room and every team meeting. It’s a long road, but it’s one I’m fully walking.

Dr. Snehal Tasgaonkar
I am an Ayurvedic physician with around 7 yrs clinical experience, though honestly—feels like I’ve lived double that in patient hours. I studied from a govt. medical college (reputed one) where I got deep into classical Ayurvedic texts n clinical logic. I treat everything from chronic stuff like arthritis, IBS, eczema... to more sudden conditions that just pop up outta nowhere. I try to approach each case by digging into the *why*, not just the *what*. I mean—anyone can treat pain, but if you don’t catch the doshic imbalance or metabolic root, it just comes bak right? I use Nadi Pariksha a lot, but also other classical signs to map prakriti-vikruti, dhatu status n agni condition... you know the drill. I like making people *understand* their own health too. Doesn’t make sense to hand meds without giving them tools to prevent a relapse. My Panchakarma training’s been a core part of my work. I do Abhyanga, Swedana, Basti etc regularly—not just detox but also as restorative therapy. Actually seen cases where patients came in exhausted, foggy... and post-Shodhana, they're just lit up. That part never gets old. Also I always tie diet & lifestyle changes into treatment. It’s non-negotiable for me, bcs long-term balance needs daily changes, not just clinic visits. I like using classical formulations but I stay practical too—if someone's not ready for full-scale protocol, I try building smaller habits. I believe healing’s not just abt treating symptoms—it’s abt helping the body reset, then stay there. I’m constantly refining what I do, trying to blend timeless Ayurvedic theory with real-time practical needs of today’s patients. Doesn’t always go perfect lol, but most times we see real shifts. That’s what keeps me going.

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.

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. Kirankumari Rathod
I am someone who kinda grew into Panchakarma without planning it much at first... just knew I wanted to understand the deeper layers of Ayurveda, not just the surface stuff. I did both my graduation and post-grad from Govt. Ayurveda Medical College & Hospital in Bangalore — honestly that place shaped a lot of how I think about healing, especially long-term healing. After my PG, I started working right away as an Assistant Professor & consultant in the Panchakarma dept at a private Ayurveda college. Teaching kinda made me realise how much we ourselves learn by explaining things to others... and watching patients go through their detox journeys—real raw healing—was where I got hooked. Now, with around 6 years of clinical exp in Panchakarma practice, I'm working as an Associate Professor, still in the same dept., still learning, still teaching. I focus a lot on individualised protocols—Ayurveda isn't one-size-fits-all and honestly, that’s what makes it tricky but also beautiful. Right now I’m also doing my PhD, it’s on female infertility—a topic I feel not just academically drawn to but personally invested in, cause I see how complex and layered it gets for many women. Managing that along with academics and patient care isn’t super easy, I won’t lie, but it kinda fuels each other. The classroom work helps my clinical thinking, and my clinical work makes me question things in research more sharply. There's a lot I still wanna explore—especially in how we explain Panchakarma better to newer patients. Many people still think it's just oil massage or some spa thing but the depth is wayyy beyond that. I guess I keep hoping to make that clarity come through—whether it’s in class or during a consult or even during a quick OPD chat.
