Hellooo jii ,

Since you are a breastfeeding mother, it is always important to be careful about what medicines you take, because some ingredients can indirectly affect your child through breast milk.

About Chandraprabha Vati : It is a classical Ayurvedic medicine mainly used for urinary problems, white discharge, infections, and balancing hormones. It also helps reduce swelling, improves digestion, and sometimes supports weight management. For your complaints of irregular periods and white discharge, yes, it can be useful. It also helps in mild vaginal infection symptoms.

But, since you are still breastfeeding, the dose should be kept very minimal and only under supervision. Usually, 1 tablet twice daily after food with lukewarm water is considered safe, but I strongly suggest you consult a nearby Ayurvedic doctor before starting, so your dosage can be adjusted according to your body and breastfeeding stage.

For weight loss – Chandraprabha alone will not help much. You’ll need dietary adjustments, light exercise (like brisk walking or yoga), and good sleep to see changes. Since you’re breastfeeding, crash dieting or very strong weight-loss medicines are not advised.

Other helpful tips for white discharge & irregular cycles: • Keep the vaginal area dry and clean. • Avoid too much sugar and oily, heavy food. • Drink warm water instead of cold. • Include cumin, fenugreek, and turmeric in food (all safe while breastfeeding).

Investigations if symptoms persist: Basic blood test (CBC, Hb%), Thyroid profile, and a gynecologist check-up to rule out infection.

So yes, Chandraprabha Vati may help you, but please use it in a supervised way because of breastfeeding.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

Hello Meena ji, I understand your concern. You are breastfeeding and also experiencing irregular periods, white discharge, and infection-related issues.

Many women face similar changes after delivery and during lactation due to hormonal imbalance & weakened reproductive tissues.but dont worry we are here to help you out😊

✅ADVICE - Since your child is already 3 years old, you can gradually wean from breastfeeding now. This will: 👉Reduce your own hormonal fluctuations 👉Help in regulating menstrual cycles 👉Lower chances of recurrent white discharge & weakness 👉Support your child to shift towards a more balanced diet.

You can slowly reduce feeds (especially daytime ones) and replace them with nutritious alternatives like milk, fruits, or light snacks.

✅ About Chandraprabha Vati

It is a classical Ayurvedic formulation useful for white discharge, urinary & reproductive health, and balancing hormones.

However, since you are still breastfeeding, it is not routinely recommended, because it contains strong herbs & minerals (like Shilajit, Guggulu) that may influence breast milk.

✅IF YOU PLANNING TO REDUCE BREAST FEEDING SLOWLY

👉you can start with Musali khadiradi ks tab 2-0-2 after food

✅TIPS FOR REDUCING WHITE DISCHARGE

Wash vaginal area with Triphala decoction – keeps infection under control or you can try triphala sitz bath

Triphala sitz bath- take 5 gm of triphala powder in 3 litre of water boil and reduce to half and pour in a large basin and sit in it for 20mins

✅DIET MODIFICATION

Include warm, freshly cooked meals with ghee, milk, vegetables, whole grains – nourishes reproductive tissues.

Avoid excessive spicy, sour, and very oily food – they aggravate discharge & infection.

For weight: do light yoga, brisk walk, kapalabhati (if comfortable). Remember, weaning + lifestyle changes will naturally help with weight loss.

👉 Avoid Chandraprabha Vati while breastfeeding without medical supervision. 👉 Gradual weaning is highly recommended at this stage for both your health & your child’s development. 👉 With proper care, your periods will regularize, discharge will reduce, and weight will gradually normalize. 🌸

Wishing you good health & balance 🙏 Dr. Snehal Vidhate

HELLO MEENA,

I hear the mix of things you’re juggling- breastfeeding a 3 year old irregular cycles, white discharge, weight concerns, and wanting relief from vaginal discomfort. That’s a lot to hold at once, and it makes sense you’re reaching for something like Chandraprabha vati, since it’s often talked about in Ayurveda for urinary, gynaecological, and metabolic issues

A few key points to ground the picture

BREASTFEEDING= even at 3 years, your body still shares what you take in with your child, so caution is wise. Chandraprabha vati has over 35 mineral preparations like Loha bhasma. Those are potent, and their safety during lactation hasn’t been well-studied

WHITE DISCHARGE AND INFECTION= In Ayurveda, this can fall under shwetapradara. Management usually isn’t just one pill- it often includes dietary guidance, local cleansing and sometimes formulations

-ASHOKARISHTA= 20 ml + warm water twice daily after meals

-LODHRASAVA= 20 ml + warm water twice daily before meals

-PUSHYANUG CHURNA= 1 tsp with rice water after lunch

IRREGULAR PRERIODS AND WEIGHT -These can overlap with hormonal imbalance

-SHATAVARI CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk in morning

-DASHMOOLARISHTA= 30 ml + warm water twice daily before meals

DIET -light, warm, easily digestible food; avoid excess sweets, curd, fried, and oily items (they tend to aggravate kapha and ama)

LIFESTYLE -regular movement- yoga asanas like bhujangasana, setu bandhasana, vajrasana after meals

LOCAL CARE= Sitz Baths with triphala kwath or neem decoction for infection like symptoms

INSTEAD OF CHANDRAPRABHA VATI KINDLY GO FOR THIS MEDICINES

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

As a breastfeeding mother with specific concerns like irregular periods, white discharge, and a desire to lose weight, turning to remedies like Chandraprabha Vati should be approached with caution. Chandraprabha Vati is a classical Ayurvedic formulation, often used for urinary tract issues, menstrual irregularities, and general digestive balance. But, while it is known for various health benefits, its use while breastfeeding requires careful consideration.

First, the active ingredients in Chandraprabha Vati include ingredients like Camphor, which may not be recommended for breastfeeding mothers due to potential effects on breast milk and the child. It’s crucial to consult with a local Ayurvedic practitioner knowledgeable about your specific health profile before taking this remedy. Every ingredient in an Ayurvedic formulation has its own set of effects, and certain herbs may not be suitable during lactation.

Addressing irregular periods and white discharge can involve looking at your overall lifestyle. Maintaining a balanced diet that supports your digestive fire or “agni” is important. Incorporate foods that are high in fiber, and consider warming spices like cumin and coriander which might help with digestion and balance your doshas. For vaginal discharge and possible infection, natural remedies such as improving hygiene, and wearing breathable undergarments can help manage the condition. However, significant symptoms should be evaluated by a healthcare professional to rule out infections that need more targeted treatments.

Since you also want to lose weight, gentle exercises like yoga or daily walks could be beneficial. Avoid straining yourself, especially since you’re in the postpartum phase. Consider an eating plan that helps balance the kapha dosha, focusing on lighter foods, warm meals, and limited sugar and refined grains.

Overall, personalized guidance from a healthcare provider familiar with both Ayurveda and postpartum care, ideally one who can closely monitor your health, is advisable. Prioritize your health and your child’s well-being with any remedy, ensuring it’s aligned with your body’s current needs.

While Chandraprabha Vati is a formulation used in Ayurveda for various issues, including some that might overlap with concerns like vaginal infections and white discharge, its usage during breastfeeding should be approached cautiously. Chandraprabha Vati contains a blend of herbs and minerals, including guggul, known for their potential effects on the body. When breastfeeding, what you consume can impact milk production and pass through to your baby, so it’s essential to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner who can provide personalized advice based on your specific dosha balance and overall health.

For irregular periods and vaginal infections, there are often underlying dosha imbalances— Vata or Kapha may be involved. Focus on balancing these through diet and lifestyle changes first. Consider reducing Kapha- and Vata-aggravating foods, like overly greasy, cold, or heavy meals. Opt for warm, freshly cooked foods and integrate spices like ginger and cinnamon to support digestion and metabolism (Agni).

To address weight loss while breastfeeding, align your meals with your natural metabolism and focus on smaller, frequent meals to maintain energy and milk supply. Include fiber-rich foods and stay hydrated to support your system.

For your vaginal infection, maintaining hygiene and using natural agents like neem or turmeric can help. Avoid synthetic substances that may irritate. If infection symptoms persist, it’s vital to consult a healthcare provider for targeted treatment, as severe or persistent infections need appropriate medical attention, and delaying might cause complications.

Finally, practicing yoga or light exercises can help maintain overall balance and wellness. But remember, personalized consultation with a professional is essential. This ensures any approach complements your health needs and promotes well-being for both you and your child.

Dr. M.Sushma
I am Dr. Sushma M and yeah, I’ve been in Ayurveda for over 20 yrs now—honestly still learning from it every day. I mostly work with preventive care, diet logic, and prakriti-based guidance. I mean, why wait for full-blown disease when your body’s been whispering for years, right? I’m kinda obsessed with that early correction part—spotting vata-pitta-kapha imbalances before they spiral into something deeper. Most ppl don’t realize how much power food timing, digestion rhythm, & basic routine actually have… until they shift it. Alongside all that classical Ayurveda, I also use energy medicine & color therapy—those subtle layers matter too, esp when someone’s dealing with long-term fatigue or emotional heaviness. These things help reconnect not just the body, but the inner self too. Some ppl are skeptical at first—but when you treat *beyond* the doshas, they feel it. And I don’t force anything… I just kinda match what fits their nature. I usually take time understanding a person’s prakriti—not just from pulse or skin or tongue—but how they react to stress, sleep patterns, their relationship with food. That whole package tells the story. I don’t do textbook treatment lines—I build a plan that adjusts *with* the person, not on top of them. Over the years, watching patients slowly return to their baseline harmony—that's what keeps me in it. I’ve seen folks come in feeling lost in symptoms no one explained… and then walk out weeks later understanding their body better than they ever did. That, to me, is healing. Not chasing symptoms, but restoring rhythm. I believe true care doesn’t look rushed, or mechanical. It listens, observes, tweaks gently. That's the kind of Ayurveda I try to practice—not loud, but deeply rooted.

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.

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.

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.

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. Keerthana PV
I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.

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. 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.

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.

I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

I am Vaidya Atul Painuli, currently working as an Ayurvedic Consultant at Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Delhi... been here a while now. My focus from the start—over 10+ yrs in this field—has been to stay true to what Ayurveda *actually* is, not just surface-level remedies or buzzwords. I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.
