hello Fareed, Aap jo bata rahe hain, usse lagta hai ki aapko chronic insomnia (नींद न आने की आदत) ho gaya hai. Jab hum lambi samay tak sirf dawa se hi so paate hain, to body uski aadat bana leti hai. Phir bina medicine, dimaag relax hi nahi hota. Yeh cycle todna thoda waqt leta hai, lekin possible hai. Aapka stress ya overthinking bhi is problem ko badha sakta hai. Iske liye Ayurvedic medicines ke saath saath dincharya aur relaxation bhi zaruri hai. Treatment Plan: Ama Pachana (First 3 days) Avipattikar Churna – 1 tsp with warm water after dinner Triphala Churna – 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime From Day 4 onwards (Main Medicines) 3. Manasmitra Vatakam – 1 tablet at night with warm milk 4. Ashwagandha Churna – 1 tsp with warm milk at bedtime 5. Brahmi Ghrit – ½ tsp in the morning empty stomach 6. Tagara Tablet – 1 tablet at bedtime Follow this for at least 6 weeks. Slowly reduce dependency on sleeping pills under your doctor’s guidance. Try light evening walks, avoid screens 1 hour before bed, and take dinner early. Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

aapko kahne se it seems to be chronic insomnia. dawaai ke binaa sleep nahi aata kai is ka matlab your insomnia converts into medicine dependent. We can focus on your sleep cycle. Fix you sleep time and go to bed at that time and turn off the screen at least 1 hour before bed. If you don't fall asleep after 20-30 minutes, you can read some books and keep trying fall asleep. Avoid tea/coffee at evening and night. Use your bed only for sleep. 1. Ksheerabala tailam for regular head massage. 2. Put the above tailam as talam over your head at evening time for 30 minutes and wipe off with a towel and pour kachooradi choornam. If above things doesn't work, took manasamitram gulika 1 at night for 2 weeks. Stay calm warm regards, Dr. Shaniba

I am a dedicated Ayurveda practitioner with a deep-rooted passion for restoring health through traditional Ayurvedic principles. My clinical approach revolves around understanding the unique constitution (Prakruti) and current imbalance (Vikruti) of each individual. I conduct comprehensive consultations that include Prakruti-Vikruti Pareeksha, tongue examination, and other Ayurvedic diagnostic tools to identify the underlying causes of disease, rather than just addressing symptoms. My primary focus is on balancing the doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—through individualized treatment plans that include herbal medicines, therapeutic diets, and lifestyle modifications. I believe that healing begins with alignment, and I work closely with my patients to bring the body, mind, and spirit into harmony using personalized, constitution-based interventions. Whether managing chronic conditions or guiding preventive health, I aim to empower patients through Ayurvedic wisdom, offering not just relief but a sustainable path to well-being. My practice is rooted in authenticity, guided by classical Ayurvedic texts and a strong commitment to ethical, patient-centered care. I take pride in helping people achieve long-term health outcomes by integrating ancient knowledge with a modern, practical approach. Through continuous learning and close attention to every detail in diagnosis and treatment, I strive to deliver meaningful, natural, and effective results for all my patients.

Hello, 1. As you are saying the issue is since a year, which means there is a reason for it to start. So please think about that and see how to get out of that reason. 2. Please do have a sleep routine by going to a bed in particular time and waking up at a fixed time, irrespective of the sleep. 3. Have a regular exercise routine. Learn Yogasana and pranayama form a good teacher and start practicing consistently-daily immediately. 4. Have early dinner which is easy to digest preferably vegetarian. 5. Avoid coffee/tea after 4PM in the evening. 6. Please see to it that you do not become dependent on any sleep medicines; they need to be taken for very short period till you adopt the above said practices in your life. Along with the above, taking the following for 30 days will help: 1. Manomitram 1---0----1 after food. 2. Valiya chandanadi thailam need to be applied to the head. Take care, Kind regards.

I am an Ayurvedic doctor with about 3 years of hands-on experience, mainly dealing with lifestyle disorders like PCOD, weight gain, diabetes, stress, and gut stuff—like bloating or weak digestion or just that feeling something’s off. I did my BAMS coz I was really drawn toward natural healing, not just the herbs part, but how everything connects—mind, food, sleep, mood... all of it. What I really try to focus on is not just giving medicine n sending people off. I like to understand what’s behind the symptoms... like why their metabolism’s slowed down or why they keep getting acidity despite eating less. That’s where my work with diet and mindset come in. I use Ayurvedic principles, yes, but I also mix it with small practical stuff—daily routines, sleep hygiene, stress release, food planning, whatever feels doable for that person. It’s not always about detoxes or strict regimens, though sometimes that helps too. Depends, really. I’ve seen good results when people actually get that they don’t need to do huge things. Just right guidance at the right time. I try to keep things light in consultation, make people feel heard, not rushed. I genuinely like when someone says “no one explained it to me like this before” — that feels nice. My whole approach is basically trying to make health feel natural again. Nothing fancy. Just rooted in the real Ayurvedic logic and a lot of listening. And yes, there’s trial and error sometimes, every case is different. But that’s what makes it kind of real. If you're dealing with any of those everyday-but-tiring health issues, I’ll do my best to figure it out with you—not just for now, but in a way that holds up longer term.

I am working in Ayurveda field from some time now, started out as a general physician at Chauhan Ayurveda Hospital in Noida. That place taught me a lot—how to handle different types of patients in OPD, those daily cases like fever, digestion issues, body pain... but also chronic stuff which keeps coming back. After that I moved to Instant Aushadhalya—an online Ayurveda hospital setup. Whole different space. Consultations online ain’t easy at first—no pulse reading, no direct Nadi check—but you learn to ask the right things, look at patient’s tone, habit patterns, timing of symptoms... and yeah it actually works, sometimes even better than in person. Right now I’m working as an Ayurveda consultant at Digvijayam Clinic where I’m focusing more on individualised care. Most ppl come here with stress-related problems, digestion issues, joint pain, that kind of mix. I go by classic diagnosis principles like prakriti analysis, dosha imbalance and all, but also mix in what I learned from modern side—like understanding their lifestyle triggers, screen time, sleep cycles, food gaps n stress patterns. I don’t rush into panchakarma or heavy medicines unless it’s needed... prefer starting with simple herbs, diet change, basic daily routine correction. If things demand, then I go stepwise into Shodhan therapies. My goal is to not just “treat” but to help ppl know what’s happening in their body and why its reacting like that. That awareness kinda becomes half the cure already. Not everything is perfect. Sometimes ppl don’t follow what you say, sometimes results are slow, and yeah that gets to you. But this path feels honest. It’s slow, grounded, and meaningful.

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. Whether treating seasonal imbalances, supporting women’s health, or guiding patients through Panchakarma therapies, I am committed to delivering care that is rooted in tradition and guided by compassion.
