Start with Amalaki rasayan 1-0-1 Apply Gunjadi oil on scalp twice weekly keep overnight and wash in the morning with herbal Anti hairfall shampoo. Apply aloevera gel on face during the day, Apply kumkumadi oil on face at night For weight loss follow diet plan and exercise routine. Apply Sunscreen 50 SPF during the day on exposed areas of the body. Avoid heavy dinner, let it be light consisting of soup salad vegetable. Do pranayam lom -vilom kapalbhatti bhastrika daily for 5-10mins twice. Brisk walking atleast 30 mins daily.
To tackle dandruff and promote hair growth, focus on balancing your pitta and kapha doshas, as these often contribute to such issues. Start with regular warm oil massages on your scalp using coconut oil or sesame oil, which can help in moisturizing and reducing dandruff. Mix a bit of lemon juice with the oil for added anti-dandruff benefits. Do this 2-3 times a week before washing your hair with a mild herbal shampoo containing neem or shikakai, known for their anti-fungal and cleansing properties.
For glowing skin and even tone, apply a face pack made of turmeric (haldi) and sandalwood (chandan) powder mixed with rose water. Turmeric has anti-inflammatory properties, while sandalwood can aid in maintaining skin tone. Use this pack twice weekly - leave it on for 20 minutes before washing off. Additionally, focus on hydration by drinking plenty of water and consuming fruits rich in vitamin C like oranges and amla, which help brighten the skin.
When it comes to weight loss, Ayurveda suggests enhancing your digestive fire or agni. Consider taking 1 tsp of Triphala powder with warm water before bed, as it’s known for its detoxifying benefits. It’s crucial, though, to exercise regularly. Opt for brisk walking or yoga, around 30 minutes a day. Avoid kapha-aggravating foods such as heavy, fried foods, and focus on lighter meals with fresh vegetables, whole grains, and legumes.
Your concerns about menstruation require a careful understanding of your menstrual health. Since you experience only one day of bleeding, it’s important to consider consulting a gynecologist or an experienced Ayurvedic practitioner for deeper insights and possibly tailored solutions.
Finally, transforming these practices into habits will help you see gradual but promising results.
For dandruff and hair loss, first consider your internal constitution. These issues often arise from an imbalance in the Vata and Pitta doshas. Focus on nourishing the scalp and pacifying these doshas. You can use a warm herbal oil, like neem or bhringraj oil, to massage your scalp at least twice a week. Leave it overnight and wash it off with a mild herbal shampoo in the morning. For added effect, you can make a hair mask with fenugreek seeds paste, applying it once a week to help strengthen the roots and reduce dandruff.
Regarding skin brightness, your skin’s dry nature suggests a Vata predominance. Hydration is key, so drink plenty of water and consider using a natural moisturizer like aloe vera gel. A weekly exfoliating scrub made from chickpea flour, turmeric, and yogurt can enhance glow and even skin tone. Apply it as a mask, let it dry, then gently scrub it off before rinsing.
As for weight loss, focus on balancing your Agni — the digestive fire. Start your day with a glass of warm water infused with lemon and honey. It helps in detoxifying and boosting metabolism. Include more fiber-rich foods like whole grains, fruits, and green leafy vegetables. Avoid processed foods and reduce sugar intake. Practicing regular physical activity like brisk walking or yoga can significantly help as well.
Concerning your menstrual cycle, having just a single day of bleeding might indicate an underlying health condition, possibly related to hormonal balance, which could benefit from a deeper consultation. Consider consulting with a healthcare provider for a personalized diagnosis and treatment plan. Regular practices like the intake of ashwagandha and shatavari can often help regulate cycles, but they should be used under professional guidance.
