I understand your struggle — anxiety, poor sleep, and GERD (acid reflux) have been troubling you for the last 4 years. Even though lorazepam gave temporary relief, it has worsened your digestion and created other problems. Ayurveda can help because it looks at the gut–brain axis.

Gut–Brain Axis in Ayurveda Modern science speaks about the gut–brain axis. Ayurveda explained this long ago: When Agni (digestive fire) is weak, it creates Ama (toxins), which disturb both Pitta (acid, heat) in the stomach and Prana Vata (mind, sleep, thoughts). This is why acidity and anxiety often come together — your digestion directly affects your mood and sleep. The key is to restore Agni, clear Ama, and calm Vata–Pitta.

Internal Medicines Medha Vati – 1 tab thrice daily Yashtimadhu Churna + Jatamansi Churna – 2 g each, mixed and taken with Guduchi Swarasa, twice daily Avipattikar Churna – 1 tsp twice daily with warm water Anulomak Vati – 2 tabs at bedtime

Addressing stress, anxiety, sleep disturbance, and GERD through Ayurveda involves first understanding the root causes and their interconnection. Stress and anxiety can aggravate the Vata dosha and may disturb Agni, the digestive fire, leading to symptom like GERD. Your use of lorazepam, while intended to manage anxiety, can unfortunately exacerbate digestive issues.

To help balance Vata and stabilize your mind, consider practicing regular Abhyanga (self-oil massage) using warm sesame oil. Applying this gently to your entire body and leaving it on for about 20 minutes followed by a warm shower can be soothing. It’s best done in the morning.

Diet plays a crucial role. Favor warm, cooked, soothing foods. Avoid spicy, excessively oily or very cold foods as they may aggravate Pitta, leading to more GERD symptoms. Incorporating cooling yet grounding liquids like coconut water can help. You can also consume cumin, coriander, and fennel tea—a teaspoon of mixed seeds simmered in hot water—for digestion.

Practices like yoga and pranayama (breathing exercises) can be invaluable. Simple poses like Shavasana (Corpse Pose) can promote relaxation and sleep. Try daily Nadi Shodhan Pranayama (alternate nostril breathing) to calm the mind. Make sure to practice consistent sleeping hours, ensuring a peaceful bedtime routine without gadgets.

Consider herbs like Ashwagandha; known for balancing Vata and promoting rest. Take ashwagandha powder with warm milk (if you tolerate dairy), before bed. For GERD, Amalaki (Indian Gooseberry) can provide relief due to its cooling nature; consider taking it in powdered form or as part of a herbal supplement, under guidance.

It’s vital you consult with qualified practitioner to personalize these suggestions, especially if integrating with existing medications or health conditions. If symptoms persist or worsen, always seek urgent medical care. Your wellness journey is a process, and small adjustments can lead to profound shifts.

Follow some simple lifestyle changes and dietary changes and you will see results for your problem.

For managing stress, anxiety, sleep issues, and GERD through Siddha-Ayurvedic practices, it’s important to focus on calming the Vata and Pitta doshas, which can often become aggravated in these conditions. GERD is typically associated with an imbalance in Pitta dosha, which leads to excessive heat and acidity.

Start by incorporating Triphala churna in your routine. Taking half a teaspoon with warm water at bedtime can help regulate digestion and keep the bowels clear, which is crucial for reducing Pitta. You could also consider using Avipattikar churna before meals; it helps balance stomach acids without adding heat.

Regarding sleep and anxiety, Ashwagandha can be beneficial due to its adaptogenic properties. Take a spoonful of Ashwagandha powder with warm milk before bedtime. It calms the nervous system, promotes relaxation, and aids in better sleep. Another suggestion is Brahmi, which supports mental calmness and clarity. Consuming Brahmi juice or tablets every morning could work well.

For GERD-specific relief, sipping on cumin, coriander, and fennel tea throughout the day helps cool the digestive fire, reducing acidity and burning sensations. Avoid consuming spicy, oily, or fried foods that exacerbate these symptoms.

Avoid lying down directly after meals to reduce GERD flare-ups. Elevate the head while sleeping to prevent acid reflux during the night.

Remember the body responds differently to herbal treatments; it’s essential to consult with a qualified practitioner to tailor any advice to your personal constitution. Consider reducing Lorazepam gradually under a doctor’s supervision to avoid withdrawal complications. It’s critical to integrate these changes with your lifestyle and observe any shifts in symptoms.
