Question

Why my body gets vibrating if im in rest mode or doing yoga .....full body gets shake why so....i have anxiety issue n low vitamin D n B12.....

Dr Sujal Patil · Accepted Answer

Hello Preksha, body vibrations or shaking during rest or yoga can be due to anxiety, low vitamin B12, and vitamin D deficiency. Anxiety activates the "fight or flight" response, even when resting, which may feel like internal shaking. Vitamin B12 deficiency affects nerve health, leading to tingling or vibrations, while low vitamin D impacts muscle and nerve function, causing twitching or weakness.
In Ayurveda, such symptoms may indicate an imbalance in Vata dosha, responsible for movement and nerve impulses. To balance Vata, consider practices like Ashwagandha and Brahmi for calming, Abhyanga (warm oil massage) with sesame oil, and gentle, grounding yoga.

Dr. Harsha Joy · Answer

The full-body shaking you experience, especially during rest or yoga, may be a response to anxiety combined with deficiencies in vitamin D and B12, which are essential for nerve health and muscle function. In Ayurveda, such symptoms can also relate to an aggravated Vata dosha, which, when imbalanced, can cause tremors, restlessness, and body pain. To calm Vata, consider incorporating grounding herbs like Ashwagandha and Brahmi for their calming effects on the nervous system, along with Shatavari to support overall strength and reduce anxiety. Abhyanga (self-massage) with warm sesame or Mahanarayan oil can also help, as it improves circulation, relaxes muscles, and grounds Vata energy.

Additionally, practices like Pranayama with gentle, controlled breathing—such as Anulom Vilom (alternate nostril breathing)—and mild yoga asanas focusing on grounding and stability (like Sukhasana or Balasana) can bring a sense of calm to the body and mind. Increasing your dietary intake of warm, nourishing foods, healthy fats, and vitamin-rich ingredients like leafy greens, nuts, and seeds may help balance Vata. It would be beneficial to have your vitamin D and B12 levels monitored and supplemented, as these are crucial for muscle stability and nerve function. Please share more about your current lifestyle and stress triggers for a more personalized regimen.
