Your symptoms suggest an imbalance of Vata dosha, commonly linked to feelings of coldness, fatigue, and fearfulness. It’s crucial to bring balance by incorporating warm, nourishing and grounding elements into your routine. Here’s a comprehensive approach:

First, focus on your diet. Consume warm, cooked foods, prefer moist and oily textures, as cold or dry meals can exasperate Vata imbalance. Include spices such as ginger, cumin, and cinnamon to stimulate your digestive fire, or ‘agni’. Hearty soups, stews and kitchari can be great options.

Sleep is vital. Aim for consistent sleep patterns by going to bed and waking up at the same time every day, opting for a peaceful, quiet environment.

Incorporate abhyanga, a self-oil massage, using sesame oil as it is deeply warming and grounding. After application, allow the oil to sit for around 15-20 minutes before a warm bath. This helps to calm Vata dosha and soothe your nervous system.

Practicing Pranayama, particularly Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing), can help balance the mind and reduce stress. Dedicate at least 10 minutes daily to this practice for calming effects. Meditation, even for 10 minutes, can aid in managing stress and improving focus.

For impotence, Ashwagandha is often recommended due to its rejuvenative properties. Consider taking a daily dose (consult with a healthcare provider for specifics regarding dosage and potential interactions). Ensure that this regrettably stems from an imbalance rather than a medical condition that requires immediate attention.

Avoid stimulants like coffee which may agitate Vata and disrupt sleep. Instead, sip warm herbal teas like tulsi or chamomile. Routine exercise is also beneficial, consider gentle yoga to stimulate circulation.

Additionally, consider speaking with a counselor to navigate underlying stressors and relationship dynamics. Understanding and addressing these issues could complement your physical health efforts. In matters of impotence, consult a specialist to rule out other medical issues that may be present.

Thank you for contacting Ask Ayurveda

From what you are describing , this seems like a long standing Vata kapha dosha aggrevation with a clear depletion of Ojas. The feeling of cold in the body, lack of internal warmth, laziness, exhaustion, forgetfulness, fear, lack of motivation to work, sexual weakness and difficulty in maintaining erection all point towards Vata imbalance along with weakened Shukra dhatu and Manovaha srotas disturbance. Long term mental stress, unresolved emotional conflicts with your wife, fear patterns and being inactive for many years have slowly drained your nervous system and vitality.

When Vata remains aggravated for a long time, the mind becomes fearful and restless, the body feels cold and dry, energy reduces, confidence drops and sexual strength weakens. Even if appetite feels mostly good, the tissues are not getting properly nourished. Weather changes affecting you further confirms Vata sensitivity.

First thing is to understand that this is a reversible condition, but it needs patience and regularity. Your body and mind need grounding, warmth and nourishment.

Wake up at the same time daily, preferably before 7 am. Avoid staying awake late at night. Take warm water only, never cold water. Daily oil massage with warm sesame oil before bath is very important. Apply oil especially on lower back, abdomen, thighs and soles. This alone will slowly improve coldness, fear and sexual weakness.

Food should be warm, freshly cooked and slightly oily. Use ghee regularly. Avoid dry foods, excess raw salads, bakery items, cold drinks and fasting. Spices like ginger, cumin, black pepper in small quantity are helpful.

For medicines, you may consider the following classical Ayurvedic support.

Ashwagandha churna half teaspoon twice daily after food with warm milk. This will help strength, energy, confidence and erection.

Kapikacchu churna half teaspoon at night after dinner with warm milk. This supports Shukra dhatu and improves erection and stamina.

Brahmi vati one tablet twice daily after food with warm water. This will help fear, forgetfulness and mental exhaustion.

Yograj guggulu two tablets twice daily after food with warm water for overall Vata balance and body strength.

If anxiety and fear are very prominent, Saraswatarishta 15 ml with equal water after lunch and dinner can be added.

Do not expect instant results. Initial improvement usually comes in 4 to 6 weeks, but deeper recovery takes 3 to 6 months.

Emotionally, unresolved stress with your wife has impacted your nervous system and sexual health. Try to reduce mental load.If possible, talk or at least work on inner acceptance. Exposure to early morning sunlight for half an hour is good Pranayam meditation at least 15 minutes daily is very important

Avoid excessive sexual activity, pornography and overthinking about performance

Your condition is not a failure of the body, it is exhaustion of the system. With warmth, nourishment, routine and correct medicines, strength and confidence will return

Regards Dr prasad

Hello I​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ appreciate you providing the details about yourself. Your symptoms seem to be indicative of a long-term Vata–Kapha imbalance along with the possibility of Manda Agni (weak digestive fire) and less Ojas (vital strength) if we consider the Ayurvedic perspective.

Your past emotional stress and conflicts may have also caused further depletion of Shukra Dhatu (reproductive tissue), thus leading to impotence and lack of energy.

AYURVEDIC UNDERSTANDING

–Feeling cold, lazy, tired= Vata–Kapha aggravated, low Agni

–Forgetfulness, fearfulness= Vata aggravation in Majja Dhatu (nervous tissue)

–Impotence, low erection=Shukra Kshaya (loss of reproductive essence)

–Past stress, arguments= Mental Ama & disturbed Satva (emotional imbalance)

AYURVEDIC TREATMENT PLAN

INTERNAL MEDICATION

1.Ashwagandha Capsule – 1 capsule twice daily Rejuvenates the body, improves physical strength, and energizes libido

2.Kapikacchu (Mucuna pruriens) Churna – 1 tsp with milk at night Helps Shukra Dhatu, facilitates erection & sperm quality

3.Shilajit Capsule – 1 capsule with warm milk after breakfast Gives strength, stamina & focus of mind

4. Saraswatarishta – 15 ml after meals with equal water Nervine relaxant, memory enhancer, fear & anxiety relief

EXTERNAL THERAPIES

Abhyanga (Warm oil massage) – daily or 3 times/week with Mahanarayana Taila → Facilitates blood flow, heat, and calms Vata

Swedana (steam therapy) after massage to help bring about internal heat

DIET & LIFESTYLE

✔️Favour:

Warm, freshly cooked foods Cow’s ghee, milk, almonds, dates, jaggery Spices: cumin, ginger, cinnamon, black pepper Warm soups, khichdi, and whole grains

❌ Avoid:

Cold drinks, raw salads, ice, dry or stale food Late nights, excessive fasting, stress, and arguments

✔️ tonic:

Take 1 glass of milk and boil it with 2 crushed almonds + pinch of saffron + 1 tsp of Ashwagandha powder. Consume it warm before going to bed.

MIND–BODY PRACTICES

Pranayama: Bhramari, Anulom Vilom (10 min daily) Meditation: 10–15 min relaxing practice before sleep A daily walk in the morning sun for warmth and lifting the spirits

In addition, your persistent tiredness and impotence might also be linked to a psychogenic factor (past stress, emotional repression).

Ayurveda considers this as a loss of Ojas — your vital energy. Rejuvenation (Rasayana therapy) is the main element of long-term recovery.

Prognosis - Energy & warmth improvement → 2–3 weeks Libido & erection improvement → 6–8 weeks Memory & motivation → gradual within 1 month

Your conditions are recoverable with the right balancing of Vata–Kapha and Rasayana therapy.

Rather than merely focusing on the problem of impotence, Ayurveda works on a deeper level to rebuild Ojas and bring about emotional equilibrium.

Warm regards, Dr Snehal ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌Vidhate

1.Tab. Hiforce 2 tab twice daily with warm milk after meals 2.Punaranav mandoor 2 tab twice daily with water after meals 3.Musli pak 1 tsp with warm milk twice daily after meals 4.Ashwagandha churna 1 tsp twice daily with warm milk after meals

🍲 Diet Tips - Favor warm, nourishing foods: milk, ghee, dates, almonds, walnuts, sesame seeds. - Avoid excess spicy, fried, or junk food — they weaken Shukra dhatu (reproductive tissue). - Drink warm water; avoid cold drinks and alcohol. - Include saffron milk occasionally for mood and stamina.

🧘 Lifestyle Tips - Yoga: Bhujangasana, Setubandhasana, Vajrasana after meals, Pawanmuktasana. - Pranayama: Anulom Vilom (balancing), Bhramari (calming). - Sleep: 7–8 hours, avoid late nights. - Reduce stress — anxiety itself worsens erectile dysfunction.
