How to be natural and elegant as I was before? - #31407

hello mahalakshmi ,

I Really understand the pain behind your words. When you say “I was very cute once but now I am with ulcer, skin issues, constipation and restlessness,” what you’re actually expressing is that your inner balance has shifted, and it is reflecting both on your body and mind. Ayurveda always considers beauty, glow, clarity of skin, proper digestion, and calmness of mind as outcomes of a balanced agni (digestive fire), proper dhatu (tissue) nourishment, and a sattvic state of mind.

Let’s go step by step so you understand why this happened and how you can reverse it

Why this is happening

Ulcer & constipation → point to weak and irregular Agni (digestive fire) + accumulation of Ama (toxic residue).

Skin issues → are often due to Pitta imbalance (ulcer, burning, irritability) combined with Vata imbalance (dryness, constipation, restlessness).

Restlessness → indicates Vata dosha aggravation in the mind (chala guna – excessive movement of thoughts).

Loss of glow/cuteness → happens when the Rasa dhatu (nutritive fluid that nourishes skin and tissues) is not properly formed due to poor digestion.

So the problem starts in your digestion and lifestyle, and spreads outward to skin, bowels, and even emotions.

Step 1: Reset digestion (Ama Pachana)

Take Trikatu churna (pippali, maricha, shunti) ½ tsp with honey once daily after lunch for 7 days. Warm water sipping throughout the day. Avoid cold drinks, heavy fried foods, excess sugar.

Step 2: Correct bowels & heal ulcers

Avipattikara churna 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water (for acidity + constipation). Yashtimadhu churna with warm milk morning and evening for ulcer healing and soothing Pitta.

Step 3: Rebuild blood and skin glow

Manjisthadi kashayam 15 ml with equal water twice daily before food (blood purifier, skin clarity). Sariva syrup or Khadeera khanda can also help if itching/rashes are there. Include soaked black raisins, pomegranate, ghee, and fresh seasonal fruits daily.

Step 4: Calm restlessness and mind

Brahmi or Shankhpushpi capsule/tablet at bedtime. 10 minutes of slow alternate nostril breathing daily. Early sleep (before 11 pm) to reduce Vata aggravation.

Step 5: External care

Apply Kumkumadi tailam at night to the face after mild cleansing. Abhyanga (self-massage with warm sesame or coconut oil) twice weekly before bath for calming Vata and restoring skin texture.

Investigations recommended

CBC (check hemoglobin, anemia can worsen skin and ulcers). Serum Vitamin D3, B12, and iron studies. Stool occult blood test (if ulcers are gastric/duodenal). Thyroid profile.

You are only 25 — your skin, digestion, and calmness can all be restored if you work on digestion first, then nourish, and finally calm the mind. Your “originality” is not lost — it is only covered under layers of imbalance. Once your Agni and mind are healed, your glow and charm will naturally come back.
