Start with amalaki rasayan 1-0-1 after food with water Ashwagandha churan 0-0-1tsp at bedtime with milk Mahamanjistadi kadha 10ml twice daily after food with water Apply kumkumadi cream on face at night before bedtime Mix manjista powder turmeric powder multani mitti besan powder mix with rose water apply twice weekly keep for 15 minutes and rub and wash with clean water.
Hair greying and thinning can be quite common, even at your age, often associated with the imbalances in doshas, particularly Pitta. For addressing the hair concerns, enhance your diet with foods rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids. Include amla or Indian gooseberry, which is highly beneficial in Ayurveda for promoting healthy hair, either in your diet or as a supplement. You could consume Amla juice or powder daily, ideally half a teaspoon mixed with a glass of warm water first thing in the morning.
To manage hair thinning, occasional application of bhringraj oil might be beneficial. Warm the oil slightly and massage gently into the scalp, leaving for 30-40 minutes before washing out with a mild herbal shampoo. This helps to nourish the scalp and strengthen hair follicles.
Address the dark spots and pores by focusing on the Kapha imbalance that might be causing oily skin. Regular care is essential, so start by cleansing the skin with a natural ubtan made of gram flour (besan), a pinch of turmeric and water, once daily. Follow this with a toner made of rose water to help tighten the pores. Aloe vera gel application at nighttime may help in fading dark spots gradually.
Incorporate a dosha-specific diet that reduces Pitta and balances Kapha. Avoid excessive spicy, oily or processed foods which may contribute to skin issues and hair problems. Hydration is crucial - aim for at least 2 liters of water daily to maintain skin moisture levels and promote detoxification.
Regular yoga and pranayama practices help in reducing stress and balancing doshas. Surya Namaskar and Anulom Vilom are beneficial to include into your routine.
However, it’s crucial to evaluate these conditions with an ayurvedic practitioner for a more detailed and personalized plan based on your body constitution. If you’re interested in booking a consultation, kindly seek a qualified professional to provide in-depth analysis and help you with your health concerns.
Hair greying and thinning along with skin concerns like dark spots and enlarged pores can often be rooted in an imbalance of doshas, particularly Pitta and Vata. For hair, the excess Pitta can lead to premature greying, while Vata may be causing thinning due to dry scalp conditions. Let’s focus on addressing these imbalances through Ayurvedic principles.
First, for your hair, consider incorporating Amla (Indian Gooseberry), which is pacifying for Pitta and supports hair pigmentation and health. Consuming fresh or powdered Amla daily can be beneficial. Additionally, you might try massaging your scalp with Brahmi or Bhringaraj oil 2-3 times a week. These oils nourish the scalp, soothe Pitta, and strengthen hair roots.
Regarding the skin, since an oily face with dark spots suggests Pitta imbalance, you might try applying a face mask made from Multani Mitti (Fuller’s Earth) mixed with a bit of rose water twice a week. This can help absorb excess oil and cool the skin. Turmeric also can be quite effective; apply a paste of turmeric and milk on dark spots a few times a week to lighten them, since turmeric has natural Pitta-calming and brightening properties.
Dietary and lifestyle modifications also support these treatments. Favor a Pitta-pacifying diet: focus on sweet, bitter, and astringent foods, and reduce sour, salty, and spicy foods which can aggravate Pitta. Hydrate well and include cooling herbs like coriander and fennel in your meals. Avoid excess exposure to sun and stress as they exacerbate Pitta symptoms.
Addressing Vata requires soothing practices. Ensure you include foods that are warm and grounding in nature and stay hydrated. Regular yoga and pranayama, especially practices like Sheetali (cooling breath) and Shavasana (rest pose), can also harmonize Pitta and Vata imbalances.
Remember that consistency is key; it takes time to notice significant changes. Should your condition not improve or worsen, seek a consultation with an Ayurvedic practitioner to receive a more personalized assessment and treatment plan. Always consult a healthcare professional if you experience any discomfort or have concerns about these recommendations.
