Forgetfulness confusion lack of concentration excessive thinking brain fog mood swings and headaches indicate that the mind is overworked and the nervous system is fatigued In Ayurveda this is mainly a vata aggravation affecting the mind and brain along with mild pitta involvement due to stress
When stress continues for months the mind does not get proper rest Thoughts keep circulating excessive thinking increases worry sleep quality reduces and gradually focus memory and emotional stability are affected That is why you feel mentally tired even without physical work
This condition is functional and reversible if addressed properly
Regular sleep timing before 11 pm Avoid screens at least 1 hour before sleep Do not skip meals
Include warm and nourishing Avoid excess tea coffee spicy junk food Include ghee daily
Daily oil application on the scalp with warm sesame or brahmi oil before bath helps significantly Foot massage with oil at night is very grounding for the nervous system
For internal support mild medhya rasayana medicines are helpful such as Brahmi vati one tablet twice daily after food with warm water Ashwagandha capsule one capsule twice daily after food with warm milk Saraswathi aristha 4 teaspoon with equal quantity of water twice daily after meals
Pranayam like anulom vilom and short meditation help reduce excessive thinking Avoid overstimulation and multitasking
This is not weakness or loss of intelligence It is mental exhaustion With consistent routine nourishment and stress regulation the mind regains clarity focus and emotional balance

🧘♀️ Anulomvilom and Bhramari Pranayam will help. But you have to do it early in the morning only.
❌ Donot get yourself into any addictions.
❌ Donot drink tea or coffee or aerated drinks.
❌ Reduce screen time… No screen in darkness and 1 hour before you sleep. Consume audio form of data rather than visuals before you sleep. Filter the content of data you consume… Let it be spiritual or positive…
✔️ Drink a glass of buffalo milk daily before you sleep; it will help you get a sound sleep.
✔️ 100 steps after both meals are must.
✔️ Eat only home cooked food… Avoid outside food, packed and processed food.
✔️ Prefer natural liquids like fruit juice, coconut water, lemon juice, kokum sharbat over packed ones.
