From your symptoms, it appears that your Vāta and Pitta doṣas are disturbed — especially Prāṇa Vāta (which controls the mind, sleep, and heart rhythm) and Sādhaka Pitta (which governs emotional balance and clarity). When these become imbalanced due to stress, irregular food and sleep routines, excessive screen time, or weak digestion, the mind becomes restless, thoughts increase, and the heart feels overactive. This causes anxiety, palpitations, and sleeplessness.
Treatment Plan: Our goal is to calm the mind, balance Vāta-Pitta, strengthen the nerves, and bring back your natural sleep rhythm. You will be started on mild yet effective Ayurvedic medicines:
Saraswatarishta – 15–20 ml with equal water after food twice daily.
Manasmitra Vatakam – 1 tablet with warm milk at bedtime.
Ashwagandha churna or capsule – 1 tsp or 500 mg with warm milk.
Brahmi Vati (Gold) – 1 tablet with milk in the morning.
Jatamansi churna – ¼ tsp with honey at night
Since disturbed digestion often worsens anxiety and sleeplessness, an Anulomaka dravya (mild digestive regulator) will also be given.
Avipattikar Churna – ½ tsp before dinner with warm water if acidity present.
Or Hingwashtak Churna – ½ tsp with the first bite of food
External Therapies: To relax the nervous system, you are advised to take:
Shirodhara with Brahmi Taila or dashmoola ksheer (30–40 min daily or alternate days)
Nasya therapy – 2 drops of Anu Taila or Ksheerabala Taila in each nostril every morning after mild head massage.
Padabhyanga (foot massage) every night with Ksheerabala Taila or Til Taila.
Lifestyle & Yoga: A stable daily routine is very important. Try to sleep by 10 pm and wake up early. Avoid screens and stimulants at least 30–45 minutes before bed. Incorporate gentle asanas like Sukhasana, Shashankasana, Viparita Karani, and Setu Bandhasana. These release tension from the body and soothe the mind. Practice Anuloma–Viloma and Bhramari Pranayama for 10 minutes both morning and evening to calm the mind and balance Prāṇa. Spend a few minutes in meditation or mantra chanting – “ॐ शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः” or “ॐ ". Listening to soft Sanskrit chanting or instrumental music in the evening also helps.
Diet & Routine: Your diet should be warm, fresh, and Sāttvika. Include ghee, milk, soaked almonds, dates, moong dal khichdi, and seasonal fruits. Avoid tea, coffee, cold drinks, spicy, and fried foods. Have dinner early (by 7:30 pm) and take a short walk afterward. Before bedtime, you can drink warm milk with a pinch of ashwagandha. Follow this with gentle foot massage and quiet sitting or prayer.
Follow-up & Progress: With this combined approach of internal medicines, therapies, and lifestyle correction, you should start experiencing calmness and better sleep within 10–15 days.

HELLO,
When you lie down to sleep but feel your heart racing, your mind restless, and an uneasy feeling in your chest - that’s a sign of imbalance between your body and mind.
Your nervous system is overactive, your thoughts are excessive, and your body isn’t able to relax.
In Ayurveda, this is mainly due to the vitiation of -Vata dosha= when aggravated it causes restlessness, anxiety, palpitations, and insomnia -Pitta dosha= when aggravated causes irritability, anger, heat sensation, and disturbed sleep
The mind also gets affected due to the dominance of Rajas (activity, overthinking) and Tamas (inertia, dullness) gunas- leading to mental disturbance, worry, and lack of peace.
COMMON AYURVEDIC CAUSES -irregular sleep habits, late nights -excessive use of mobile/computer before bed -skipping meals, irregular eating times -too much caffeine, alcohol, or spicy food -chronic worry, stress, fear -physical or emotional trauma -excessive fating or dieting increases vata -weakness after illness

Anxiety and palpitations disturbing your sleep could be a result of an imbalance in the Vata dosha, which governs movement and nervous system. Vata tends to become aggravated with irregular routines, excess stress, and too much sensory input. To address this, it’s essential to restore balance and calm the mind.
Start by establishing a consistent nightly routine. Try to go to bed at the same time every night, ideally by 10 PM. Prior to sleeping, practice Abhyanga, a self-massage using warm sesame or almond oil. This not only relaxes the body but also soothes the mind and helps to ground Vata.
Herbs can play a pivotal role. Consider Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), which can support the nervous system and calm anxiety. Take it in powder form with warm milk before bed. Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) is another option, excellent for reducing restlessness and promoting calmness when consumed as a tea or in capsules. However, ensure these herbal practices align with your individual needs.
Diet also matters. Avoid caffeine, refined sugars, and spicy foods in the evening, as these can stimulate Vata. Instead, favor warm, cooked meals like kitchari, which is easily digestible and calming. A small cup of warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg can promote sleepiness.
Include gentle yoga or meditation to ease your mind into rest. Specific yoga poses like Balasana (Child’s Pose) or Viparita Karani (legs up the wall) are effective. Pranayama practices, specifically Nadi Shodhana or alternate nostril breathing, can be particularly beneficial in calming the mind and preparing it for sleep.
Lastly, minimize screen time an hour before bed; the blue light from screens can further aggrevate Vata. Instead, indulge in calming activities like reading or listening to soothing music. Through these deliberate steps, you can work towards balancing Vata and nurturing a peaceful, restful sleep.
Your difficulty sleeping, anxiety, and palpitations can be tied to an imbalance in the Vata dosha. When Vata is aggravated, it tends to create restlessness, disturbed sleep, and a racing mind. Addressing this requires grounding and calming the Vata energy, which can be done through tailored lifestyle changes and natural remedies.
Firstly, focus on establishing a routine. Try to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day. This helps stabilize Vata by setting a regular rhythm for your body. Before bedtime, engage in calming activities like gentle breathing exercises or meditation for about 10-15 minutes. This can help settle the mind and clear anxious thoughts.
Incorporate warm, nourishing foods into your diet. Warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg or turmeric can be consumed before bed. These spices have calming properties that aid in inducing relaxation. Eating your evening meal 2-3 hours before bedtime allows the body sufficient time to digest and promotes restful sleep.
Applying a gentle oil massage with warm sesame oil or almond oil before bed can also be beneficial. Massage your feet, temples, and scalp gently. This not only calms the nervous system but also lubricates the joints and tissues, countering dryness and brittleness associated with Vata imbalance.
Herbal remedies like Ashwagandha or Brahmi can be supportive. Ashwagandha aids in reducing stress and anxiety, while Brahmi enhances cognitive function and calms the mind. However, consult an Ayurvedic practitioner before starting any herb especially to determine the right dosage and form.
Lastly, avoid stimulants like caffeine and excessive technology use close to bedtime, as they can aggravate Vata further. Making these adjustments should help in soothing your Vata and promoting better sleep. If the palpitations or anxiety persist, it’s crucial to seek immediate medical evaluation to rule out any other underlying conditions.
