hello keshabhai jumma bhai Maheshwari,

You’re 58 and have been facing anxiety, depression, insomnia, and sexual weakness for 20 years, along with high BP and cholesterol. Long-standing psychiatric medications may help symptoms temporarily but do not always rebuild the nervous system or correct the root imbalance. According to Ayurveda, this condition reflects a chronic Vata imbalance, especially affecting the Manovaha Srotas (mind channels), Majja dhatu (nervous tissue), and Shukra dhatu (reproductive essence).

This leads to disturbed sleep, overthinking, nervous fatigue, and eventually impacts libido, performance, and mental resilience.

Internal Medicines (6–8 weeks):

Manasamitra Vatakam – 1 tablet at bedtime with warm milk Brahmi Ghritam – 1 tsp with warm water in the morning Ashwagandha Churna – ½ tsp with milk at night Saraswatarishta – 20 ml + 20 ml water after lunch and dinner Makardhwaj Vati (Plain) – 1 tablet after breakfast (for stamina and mood) These will help improve mood, reduce anxiety, calm the mind, and improve both sleep and sexual vitality.

External Support:

Abhyanga (Oil massage) – Use Bala Taila or Ksheerabala Taila, warm and apply over whole body 3–4 times a week, especially on spine and feet Shirodhara therapy (if available) – 7 sittings with Brahmi Taila or Ksheerabala oil can calm the nervous system deeply

Diet & Lifestyle Tips:

Eat warm, freshly cooked, easy-to-digest meals Avoid cold food, raw salads, and stimulants like coffee Start the day with 1 tsp cow ghee + warm water Include almonds (soaked), dates, and ghee in diet Avoid excessive mobile/TV exposure before sleep Sleep by 10.30 PM – maintain strict routine Practice Bhramari pranayama and Yoga Nidra daily at night

Investigations: Vitamin B12 Vitamin D3 Serum Testosterone HbA1c (to check blood sugar status) Lipid profile TSH

With proper support, you can regain mental clarity, improve sleep, balance moods, and restore natural vitality. Vata disorders need gentle but regular attention Ayurvedic care is particularly effective in chronic emotional and nervous system issues.

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

I am a dedicated Ayurvedic practitioner with a diverse foundation in both modern and traditional systems of medicine. My journey began with six months of hands-on experience in allopathic medicine at District Hospital Sitapur, where I was exposed to acute and chronic care in a high-volume clinical setting. This experience strengthened my diagnostic skills and deepened my understanding of patient care in an allopathic framework. Complementing this, I have also completed six months of clinical training in Ayurveda and Panchakarma, focusing on natural detoxification and rejuvenation therapies. During this time, I gained practical experience in classical Ayurvedic treatments, including Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara, and other Panchakarma modalities. I strongly believe in a patient-centric approach that blends the wisdom of Ayurveda with the clinical precision of modern medicine for optimal outcomes. Additionally, I hold certification in Garbha Sanskar, a specialized Ayurvedic discipline aimed at promoting holistic wellness during pregnancy. I am passionate about supporting maternal health and fetal development through time-tested Ayurvedic practices, dietary guidance, and lifestyle recommendations. My approach to healthcare emphasizes balance, preventive care, and customized wellness plans tailored to each individual’s constitution and health goals. I aim to create a nurturing space where patients feel heard, supported, and empowered in their healing journey.

HELLO KESHABHAI JI,

You’re experiencing: -INSOMNIA= taking 3-4 hours to fall asleep -ANXIETY= worry, tension , racing thoughts -DEPPRESSION

These symptoms are not separate problems. They’re all connected and arise mainly from an imbalance in your vata dosha, which governs nervous system, thoughts, movement and sleep.

When vata becomes excessive, you feel -mentally overactive or restless -anxious and tense -unable to calm the mind or body -weak digestion -sleep becomes light, delayed or disturbed

WHY THIS HAPPENS? Imagine your mind like a lake. When the wind(vata) is strong, the water becomes wavy and disturbed.you can’t see clearly or rest. This is what’s happening in your mind and nervous system.

CAUSES OF INCREASED VATA IN MODERN LIFE- -irregular sleep and food times -too much phone/computer use, especially at night -excessive thinking, worrying, multitasking -skipping meals or eating dry, cold, spicy foods -lack of grounding activities like nature, rest and silence

GOAL OF TREATMENT -balance vata -calm the nervous system -restore natural sleep rhythm -improve digestion and mental clarity

INTERNALLY START WITH

1) MANAS MITRA VATAKAM -1 tab twice daily with meals after food for 6-8 weeks = a powerful nervine tonic. calms the mind, improves memory, reduces anxiety, and promotes restful sleep. balances vata and pitta in the brain. often used in cases off insomnia, mental stress and even epilepsy.

2) SARASWATARISHTA - 15 ml with equal water twice daily after meals for 3 months =improves memory, focus, and clarity of mind. reduces anxiety and support long-term mental stability

3) ASHWAGANDHARISHTA - 15 ml with equal water twice daily after food for 6-12 weeks =tonic for nerves , promotes energy and reduces stress-induced fatigue. supports sleep. balances vata.

4) KALYANAKA GHRITA -1 tsp at bedtime with warm milk for 6-8 weeks =enhances memory, intelligence, releievs insomnia, nourishes the nervous system.

5) CHANDRAPRABHA VATI - 1 tab twice daily after meals for 1 month =mild sedative effect, support calmness and reduce psychosomatic tension. helps with fatigue and sleep regulation

TOTAL DURATION -start with a minimum 6-8 weeks -continue saraswatarishta or kalyanaka ghrita longer for chronic anxiety, memory issues

TAPERING OFF once sleep stabilises -reduce kalayanaka ghrita to alternate days -continue saraswatarishta + healthy routine -maintain yoga and breathing exercises

A regular daily routine is medicine itself

6:00- 6:30 am= wake up, splash cool water on eyes 6:30-7:00 am= empty bowel- drink warm water to help 7:00- 7:30 am= light walk in fresh air and slow yoga 8:00 am= warm breakfast 12:30 pm= lunch (main meal of the day) 4:00 pm= herbal tea or light snack- no caffeine 6:30- 7:00 pm= light dinner 8:00 pm= relax- no phone/laptop after this 9:00 pm= warm bath or foot soak with rock salt 9:30 pm= deep breathing, then lie down to sleep

DIET :- Your food should be -warm, soft, well cooked -light, oily, grounding -mild in spices- not too pungent or cold -easy to digest

EAT MORE OF -ghee- 1 tsp daily with rice or roti -khichdi-rice+moong dal with ghee -milk with a pinch of nutmeg at night -stamed or sautéed vegetables -dates and soaked almonds -herbal teas- ginger, tulsi, chamomile- avoid caffeine

AVOID -cold foods or drinks -raw salads at night -leftover or packaged food -caffeine soft drinks -spicy chutney, pickles, fried foods

EAT YOUR MEALS AT THE SAME TIME EVERY DAY

YOGA AND MOVEMENT movement helps ground vata, but is must be gentle calming not intense.

MORNING YOGA- 30 MIN DAILY -tadasana- improves focus -vrikshasana- balances nervous system -setu band hasana- calms the mind -balasana-reduces anxiety -viparita karani- deep relaxation

PRANAYAM breathing calms your thoughts and resets the nervous system

DO THESE BEFORE SLEEP OR WHEN ANXIOUS -ANULOM VILOM= 5-7 mins, balances left and right brain, calms thoughts -BHRAMARI= 3-5 min, deeply calming for anxiety, promotes sleep -CHANDRA BHEDANA- 5 min, cools the mind and prepares for sleep

SIT COMFORTABLY. DO SLOWLY, SOFT BREATHING. DON’T STRAIN

NIGHT ROUTINE FOR BETTER SLEEP -warm bath or foot soak before bed -apply sesame or almond oil on soles of feet and temples on head -avoid phone or tv 1 hour before sleep -read something calming -keep the room dark and quite

TIPS FOR ANXIETY , DEPRESSION, INSOMNIA -practice mindfullness- stay with what you’re doing- avoid multitasking -avoid late night thinking or big decisions at night -talk to someone or journal your thoughts to empty the mind -take breaks from screens and noise

DON’T CHASE SLEEP. CALM YOUR MIND AND BODY- SLEEP WILL COME NATURALLY

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

For addressing issues of anxiety, depression, insomnia, and sexual problems from an Ayurvedic perspective, coupled with existing treatments, consider a holistic approach. Given your age, weight, and height, it’s important to focus on balancing Vata dosha, since imbalance here may contribute to such issues. Here’s what you can do:

Diet is crucial. Favor warm, cooked foods and avoid cold, raw, or dry foods that can aggravate Vata. Include ghee in your meals for its nourishing properties. Focus on grounding meals; rice, warm non-spicy vegetable soups, and stews are beneficial. Regularity in meals supports digestive health, which Ayurveda links with mental health.

For anxiety and stress reduction, Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) and Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) can be effective. These herbs help calm the mind, promoting relaxation and reducing stress. Brahmi is known for its anxiety-reducing properties. You may take it as a powder, one teaspoon with warm water or milk in the morning and evening.

Sleep can improve by establishing a routine. Aim to go to bed before 10 PM, as natural body rhythms are crucial. Applying warm sesame oil to the feet before sleep is a time-tested remedy. It soothes the nervous system, encourages sleep, and reduces insomnia signs.

Practicing mindfulness, meditation or yoga daily can be very beneficial. These practices cut down stress levels, improve focus, and can positively affect mood disorders. Try to allocate at least 20 minutes a day to simple meditative practices like focusing on breathing.

About sexual health, Mucuna Pruriens helps to support libido and combat depression and anxiety naturally. Consuming half teaspoon of the powder mixed with warm milk before bedtime might be beneficial.

Always discuss with your current healthcare provider before adding any new treatments, especially considering your ongoing psychiatric treatment and medication like Rousosun and BP management. Safety and a tailored approach are paramount. If any symptoms worsen or don’t improve, reevaluate with a healthcare professional.

Addressing anxiety, depression, insomnia, and sexual problems requires a holistic approach, considering your age and ongoing conditions. The foundational principles of Siddha-Ayurveda focus on balancing the doshas – in your case, likely a Vata and Pitta imbalance may be influencing these symptoms.

First, for anxiety and depression, incorporate Vata-pacifying foods like warm, cooked meals with grounding spices like cumin, and fennel. Regular Abhyanga (self-oil massage) with sesame oil can help soothe the nervous system. Incorporate Ashwagandha powder with warm milk at night, which helps stabilize mood and supports restful sleep.

Regarding insomnia, establishing a calming evening routine is crucial. Consider a decoction of Brahmi and Shankhapushpi leaves steeped in boiling water, consumed before bed to encourage relaxation and promote sleep. Avoid caffeine and stimulants late in the day.

To address sexual health, consider herbs like Kapikacchu (Mucuna pruriens) and Safed Musli (Chlorophytum borivilianum) which are known to support vitality and help with libido. These should be taken in powdered form with warm milk daily.

It’s vital you consult with your healthcare provider regarding any new supplements, especially due to ongoing psychiatric treatment and medication. They can interact with prescribed medications. Regular practice of Pranayama can help in balancing overall mental health; prioritize techniques that calm the mind, like Anulom Vilom (alternate nostril breathing).

Monitor blood pressure and continue taking your prescribed medication for cholesterol as advised by your allopathic doctor. Both Siddha-Ayurveda and contemporary treatments can coexist, ensuring a comprehensive approach to wellbeing without discontinuing essential medication. If symptoms persist or deteriorate, seek immediate attention from a healthcare professional.

I am someone who kinda started out in both worlds—Ayurveda and allopathy—and that mix really shaped how I see health today. My clinical journey began with 6 months of hands-on allopathic exposure at District Hospital Sitapur. Honestly, that place was intense. Fast-paced, high patient flow, constant cases of chronic and acute illnesses coming through. That taught me a lot about how to see disease. Not just treat it, but like… notice the patterns, get better at real-time diagnosis, really listen to what the patient isn’t saying out loud sometimes. It gave me this sharper sense of clinical grounding which I think still stays with me. Then I moved more deeply into Ayurveda and spent another 6 months diving into clinical training focused on Panchakarma therapies. Stuff like Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara—learned those not just as a list of techniques, but how and when to use 'em, especially for detox and deep healing. Every case felt like a different puzzle. There wasn’t always one right answer, you know? And that’s where I found I loved adapting protocols based on what the person actually needed, not just what the textbook says. Alongside that, I got certified in Garbha Sanskar through structured training. That really pulled me closer to maternal health. Pregnancy support through Ayurveda isn’t just about herbs or massage, it’s like this entire way of guiding a mother-to-be toward nourishing the baby right from conception—emotionally, physically, all of it. That part stuck with me hard. My overall approach? It’s kinda fluid. I believe in balancing natural therapies and evidence-based thinking. Whether it's seasonal imbalance, hormonal issues, Panchakarma detox plans, or just guiding someone on long-term wellness—I like making people feel safe, heard, and actually understood. I’m not into rushing plans or masking symptoms. I’d rather work together with someone to build something sustainable that really suits their body and where they’re at. In a way, I’m still learning every day. But my focus stays the same—use Ayurvedic wisdom practically, compassionately, and in a way that just... makes sense in real life.

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. Anupriya
I am an Ayurvedic doctor trained at one of the most reputed institutes (yeah, the kind that makes u sweat but also feel proud lol) where I completed my BAMS with 70%—not just numbers but real grind behind it. My focus during & after graduation has always been on treating the patient not just the disease, and honestly that philosophy keeps guiding me even now. I usually see anywhere around 50 to 60 patients a day, sometimes more if there's a health camp or local rush. It’s hectic, but I kinda thrive in that rhythm. What matters to me is not the number but going deep into each case—reading every complaint, understanding symptoms, prakriti, current state, season changes etc. and putting together a treatment that feels “right” for that person, not just for the condition. Like, I don’t do one-size-fits-all plans. I sit down, make case reports (yup, proper handwritten notes sometimes), observe small shifts, modify herbs, suggest diet tweaks, even plan rest patterns when needed. I find that holistic angle super powerful. And patients feel it too—some who come in dull n restless, over weeks show clarity, skin settles, energy kinda gets back... that makes the day worth it tbh. There’s no shortcut to trust, and i get that. Maybe that’s why patients keep referring their siblings or maa-papa too. Not bragging, but when people say things like “you actually listened” or “I felt heard”, it stays in the back of my mind even when I’m dog tired lol. My goal? Just to keep learning, treating honestly and evolving as per what each new case teaches me. Ayurveda isn’t static—it grows with u if u let it. I guess I’m just walking that path, one custom plan at a time.

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. Suchin M
I am someone who’s honestly just really drawn to how deep Ayurveda goes—like really deep—not just treating what’s showing on the surface but getting into what’s actually causing it underneath. I really believe that even those complicated lifestyle diseases, stuff like diabetes or BP or obesity that people think they’ll just have to live with forever, can totally be managed with Ayurvedic principles. Not magically or overnight, but through proper diagnosis, diet tweaks, daily habits, and herbs that actually work if you use them right. That’s the part I focus on—making Ayurveda work practically, not just in theory. After finishing my BAMS, I’ve worked with chronic conditions for over a year now in clinical setups. Mostly patients dealing with long-term stuff that doesn’t go away with one pill—usually the kind of disorders rooted in stress, wrong food choices or too much sitting. I’ve seen that if you really listen first, like actually listen—hear their story, feel where they’re coming from—half the work’s already done. Then when you assess their Prakriti, figure out where the doshas are out of balance, and connect that with their history (plus any modern test reports they might bring), it gives you this full picture that’s so valuable. My treatment plans aren't one-size-fits-all. Sometimes it’s about bringing agni back into balance. Sometimes just clearing aam helps. Most people are shocked that things like bloating or even periods issues can shift just by aligning food and herbs with their constitution. And if the case is acute or there’s a red flag, I have no problem referring for emergency allopathic care. Integrative care makes sense—Ayurveda doesn’t have to be isolated from modern medicine. My aim? It's not just to fix a symptom. I want people to feel at ease in their own body again. To build habits they don’t need to break later. To know their own rhythm, not just follow some generic health trend. That’s what Ayurvedic healing means to me... not perfect, but real.

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. 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. 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. Isha Bhardwaj
I am someone who kinda learned early that medicine isn’t just about protocols or pills—like, it’s more about people, right? I did my BAMS with proper grounding in both classical Ayurveda and also the basics of modern med, which honestly helped me see both sides better. During internship, I got to work 6 months at Civil Hospital Sonipat—very clinical, very fast paced—and the other 6 at our own Ayurvedic hospital in the college. That mix showed me how blending traditional and integrative care isn't just theory, it actually works with real patients. After that I joined Kbir Wellness, an Ayurvedic aushdhalaya setup, where I dived into Naadi Pariksha—like really deep. It’s weird how much you can tell from pulse if you just listen right?? Doing regular consultations there sharpened my sense of prakriti, vikriti and how doshas show up subtle first. I used classical Ayurvedic texts to shape treatment plans, but always kept the patient’s routine, mental space and capacity in mind. Also I was part of some health camps around Karnal and Panipat—especially in govt schools and remote areas. That part really stays with me. You get to help ppl who dont usually have access to consistent care, and you start valuing simple awareness more than anything. I kinda think prevention should be a bigger focus in Ayurveda, like we keep talking about root cause but don’t always reach people before it gets worse. My whole method is pretty much built around that—root-cause treatment, yes, but also guiding patients on how to live with their body instead of fighting symptoms all the time. I rely a lot on traditional diagnostics like Naadi, but I mix that with practical therapies they can actually follow. No point in giving hard-to-do regimens if someone’s already overwhelmed. I keep it flexible. Most of my plans include dietary changes, natural formulations, lifestyle corrections and sometimes breathwork, daily rhythms and all that. I’m not here to just “treat illness”—what I really aim for is helping someone feel like they’ve got a handle on their own health again. That shift from just surviving to kinda thriving... that’s what I look for in every case.

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. Akshay Negi
I am currently pursuing my MD in Panchakarma, and by now I carry 3 yrs of steady clinical experience. Panchakarma for me is not just detox or some fancy retreat thing — it’s the core of how Ayurveda actually works to reset the system. During my journey I’ve handled patients with arthritis flares, chronic back pain, migraine, digestive troubles, hormonal imbalance, even skin and stress-related disorders... and in almost every case Panchakarma gave space for deeper healing than medicines alone. Working hands-on with procedures like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana gave me a lot of practical insight. It's not just about performing the therapy, but understanding timing, patient strength, diet before and after, and how their mind-body reacts to cleansing. Some respond quick, others struggle with initial discomfort, and that’s where real patient support matters. I learnt to watch closely, adjust small details, and guide them through the whole process safely. My approach is always patient-centric. I don’t believe in pushing the same package to everyone. I first assess prakriti, agni, mental state, lifestyle, then decide what works best. Sometimes full Panchakarma isn’t even needed — simple modifications, herbs, or limited therapy sessions can bring results. And when full shodhana is required, I plan it in detail with proper purvakarma & aftercare, cause that’s what makes outcomes sustainable. The last few years made me more confident not just in procedures but in the philosophy behind them. Panchakarma isn’t a quick fix — it demands patience, discipline, trust. But when done right, it gives relief that lasts, and that’s why I keep refining how I practice it.
