Nightfall, also known as nocturnal emission, is a common occurrence particularly when stopping habitual masturbation. In Siddha-Ayurvedic terms, the imbalance here often involves the vata dosha, which can disturb the mind-body connection and lead to such symptoms. Let’s address this with some practical recommendations:
Firstly, consider incorporating regular practices like deep breathing exercises or pranayama, ideally in the morning, to stabilize vata. This can have a calming effect on your nervous system. Start with Anulom Vilom for 5-10 minutes daily.
Your diet can also significantly impact this condition. Aim to consume warm, grounding foods which can help pacify vata. Include foods like cooked vegetables, whole grains, ghee, and nuts. Avoid cold, caffeinated, or excessively spicy foods as they may exacerbate vata imbalance.
Herbal formulations can also support this balance. Ashwagandha and Bala powder may be beneficial here — with a qualified practitioner’s guidance, you might take a teaspoon of ashwagandha with warm milk before bed, as it has rejuvenating properties that can help with sexual energy and stamina.
For the frequent urination, ensure your pelvic floor muscles are strong. Regular practice of Mula Bandha (root lock) can strengthen this area. Gently contract and hold the pelvic floor muscles for a few seconds, release, and repeat this several times daily.
Lastly, manage your stress with regular meditation practice. Even just 10-15 minutes a day can make a noticeable difference. If symptoms persist or worsen, it’s wise to consult a healthcare professional to rule out underlying issues. The guidance will help restore balance but cannot replace individual medical advice tailored to your specific conditions.
