At 56 years old, experiencing difficulty in sleeping and persistent fatigue can significantly impact your quality of life. In Ayurveda, these symptoms may be linked to an imbalance in the Vata dosha, which governs movement and can affect both sleep patterns and energy levels. Factors such as stress, diet, lifestyle, and even emotional well-being can contribute to these imbalances.
To provide you with effective guidance, I would need more details about your daily routine. Could you share information about your diet, including what types of foods you consume and how often? Additionally, please let me know about your exercise routine—what kind of moderate exercise do you engage in, and how often? It would also be helpful to understand your sleep environment, including factors like noise, light, and temperature, as well as any stressors in your life that might be affecting your sleep quality.
Ayurvedic approaches to improving sleep may include herbal remedies, dietary adjustments, and lifestyle practices such as Abhyanga (self-massage) and Shirodhara (oil pouring on the forehead). With more information, I can suggest specific strategies to help restore balance and enhance your overall well-being.

Hello Anju, Since when are you having the issues? How is your day? Lethargic or active? Any nutritional deficiencies detected? here’s a comprehensive plan to manage aggravation of Vata & Pitta which usually cause sleep disorders related to poor sleep.
Ayurvedic Prescription for Sleep
Ashwagandha: 500 mg twice daily (morning and evening) with warm water. It reduces cortisol levels and promotes relaxation.
Brahmi: 250 mg once daily in the evening to calm the mind.
Tagara (Indian Valerian): 250 mg before bedtime, as it helps to promote deep sleep by its sedative effect.
Oil Treatments:
Abhyanga (Oil Massage): Massage the body and scalp with warm sesame oil or Brahmi oil for 10–15 minutes before bathing. This relaxes the muscles and calms the nervous system.
Nasya (Nasal Oil Application): Use 2 drops of warm Anu Taila or sesame oil in each nostril before bed. Nasya helps balance Vata and relieves stress.
Dietary Adjustments:
Evening Milk with Nutmeg: Drink a cup of warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg or turmeric before bed. Nutmeg contains myristicin, a natural sedative.
Lifestyle Modifications:
Meditation: Practice 5-10 minutes of meditation or deep breathing (Anulom Vilom) before bed to calm the mind.
Consistent Sleep Routine: Maintain a regular sleep schedule to stabilize circadian rhythms. Follow up with me after a month of following this.
