Hello sumo

, I want you to know first what you’re feeling is real and valid, and it’s not your fault. The week before your period can feel overwhelming because your body and mind are going through natural hormonal shifts. Feeling lonely, irritated, angry, having racing thoughts, or even hearing murmurs is your body’s way of signaling that it needs extra care and gentleness right now.

I want you to be kind to yourself during this time. You are not “weak” or “broken” your mind is simply sensitive to these changes, and it will settle down naturally once your period begins. It’s okay to take a step back, rest, and focus on things that soothe you. Gentle activities like listening to calming music, meditating, taking warm baths, journaling, or simply sitting quietly can help your mind feel lighter.

You’re not alone in this. Many women experience emotional storms before their periods, and with awareness, self-care, and gentle support, it becomes much easier over time. Your body and mind are strong, even if it doesn’t feel like it right now, and these feelings will pass you will feel yourself again.

Remember, it’s okay to slow down, take breaks, and nurture yourself. You’re doing your best, and that is enough.

Warmly, Dr. Karthika

The symptoms you’re experiencing before menstruation could be linked with hormonal fluctuations affecting both your mind and body. In Ayurveda, this time can be related to an exacerbation of Vata dosha, which governs movement and change, both in physiological and psychological realms. When Vata is imbalanced, it can lead to restlessness, anxiety, and mood swings, as you describe, along with physical symptoms like bloating or irregular digestion.

Firstly, considering your condition, calming routines are essential. A regular sleep schedule, with a focus on going to bed early, can help settle Vata. Try including calming teas such as chamomile or ashwagandha before bed, they work wonders for promoting restful sleep.

In terms of diet, ensure you’re consuming warm, cooked foods that are easy to digest, avoiding raw, cold, or excessively spicy foods. Incorporate grounding foods like sweet potatoes, carrots, and ghee. Adding spices like cumin, ginger, and turmeric can support your digestive fire, or agni, maintaining balance.

Regularity is key, so try establishing a daily rhythm with meals at consistent times. Practice yoga or gentle stretching, these movements can help calm Vata symptoms and ease tension. Breathing exercises like prāṇāyāma, in particular Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) can significantly decrease stress and emotional turbulences.

Moringa or Brahmi supplements could also be beneficial for mental clarity and reducing stress. However, avoid overuse, ensure they are consumed under supervision of an Ayurvedic practitioner.

If symptoms persist or worsen, it’s crucial to discuss with a healthcare professional, as severe mood disturbances and hallucinations might indicate a need for broader assessment. Ayurveda complements conventional treatments but should not replace essential medical care in managing complex symptoms.

Your symptoms seem to mirror a condition known as gatodhakavastha, understood in Siddha-Ayurveda as imbalances of the vata dosha during the menstrual cycle. This phase of the menstrual cycle is often marked by heightened vata due to its natural qualities of movement and change.

First, consider incorporating vata-pacifying routines into your lifestyle, such as warm, nourishing foods that are grounding and easy to digest. Think along the lines of cooked vegetables, whole grains, and hearty soups. Avoid cold drinks and raw foods to maintain inner warmth.

Controlling vata requires regular routines, so aim to go to bed and wake up at the same time each day. To soothe your mind during this period, practice deep, relaxed breathing exercises or pranayama for around 10 minutes daily. This can help calm the racing thoughts.

Incorporate an oil massage into your routine, using warm sesame or almond oil. Gently massage your body before a warm bath to nurture your skin and stabilize vata energies. A short, warm bath can help you unwind further.

Engage in calming practices such as gentle yoga or meditation. These activities can reduce vata’s erratic nature and help ground your mind.

If symptoms persist or are very severe, consult a healthcare professional familiar with deeper vata imbalances or premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), as in some cases it might be indicative of a condition warranting further investigation with modern medical assessments. This ensures you receive a thorough evaluation and support.
