Hey there, that sounds really frustrating. In Ayurveda, those involuntary hand movements may relate to a vata imbalance, especially since vata governs movement and these movements seem linked to anxiety and long tech use. You’re right to think stress is involved – it can really amp up vata disturbances, unfortunately!
First, about herbs – you might wanna try ashwagandha (often called Indian ginseng) or brahmi. Ashwagandha is quite grounding, and helps stabilize vata. Brahmi’s great for calming the mind, which sounds like it could be a bonus, right? But don’t just start grabbing anything; it’s best to talk to an Ayurvedic practitioner to make sure they’re right for you personally.
For oils, abhyanga (self-massage) with warm sesame oil can do wonders for grounding vata dosha. Do this gently in circular motions, ideally daily before your bath or shower. It relaxes muscles and nerves, gives calm vibes and can be really soothing.
As for diet, increasing warm, cooked meals and grounding foods (think root veggies, grains like rice) can help balance vata. Maybe avoid cold and raw foods for a bit, they’re not helping right now. Stay hydrated but don’t overdo caffeine or alcohol.
On lifestlye, think about incorporating yoga and pranayama – focusing on smooth, slow breathing. Meditation absolutely is a friend here too, helping reduce anxiety. Both yoga and meditation over time can help improve the stability of the nervous system.
You should probably see an Ayurvedic doctor for personalized advice, but trying these home remedies first could already make a little difference. If it persists tho, please don’t delay seeing a healthcare professional – sometimes things need a look from multiple angles, ya know?
Everyone’s body is unique, so timing varies for improvement. A few weeks for some, longer for others. Take it step by step, give yourself patience. Hope this helps a bit – wishing you relief and healing!
