In Ayurveda, the symptoms you're describing, such as feeling a lack of oxygen in your lungs and occasional chest pain, could be related to an imbalance in the Vata and Prana Vayu (the life force energy responsible for breath and movement in the body). These issues may arise from a weakened digestive system, stress, or insufficient nourishment, which can affect the body's ability to properly absorb and circulate oxygen. The feeling of being "skinny" may indicate a deficiency in both Ojas (the vital essence of life and immunity) and Dhatus (tissues), which are crucial for maintaining body mass and overall strength.

To address these issues, it would be important to focus on nourishing and strengthening the body. A diet rich in easily digestible, warm, and grounding foods like cooked vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats (such as ghee and sesame oil) will help build strength and support lung function. Incorporating herbs such as Ashwagandha, Shatavari, and Licorice can help strengthen the respiratory system and improve oxygenation. Regular breathing exercises like Anulom Vilom (alternate nostril breathing) and deep diaphragmatic breathing can help enhance lung capacity and oxygen intake. Additionally, focusing on building the body's strength through a balanced regimen of exercise and proper rest can help improve your overall vitality and reduce stress. If the chest pain persists, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying conditions.
