From the details you’ve shared, this strongly suggests Vata aggravation, and your baseline constitution (Prakruti) also appears predominantly Vata. Your body frame (small joints, slim build, difficulty gaining muscle), high flexibility, variable energy, emotional fluctuations, anxiety tendency, overactivity, frequent change in life patterns — all are classical Vata traits. Now, when Vata gets aggravated (due to over-exercise, irregular meals, excessive fruits, dry/light foods, stress, antibiotics history, smoking history, caffeine withdrawal, sauna, creatine, etc.), the body shows: Difficulty building muscle Quick exhaustion Overstretch injuries (like hamstring strain) Anxiety and emotional swings Overthinking about food and weight Variable digestion Light sleep tendency This is not weakness. It is Vata dominance without enough grounding. Why Muscle Is Not Building Muscle tissue (Mamsa Dhatu) requires: Strong Agni (digestive fire) Adequate protein and nourishment Stability Rest Oiliness and warmth Your current routine is very Vata-provoking: Oats daily (dry, light) Excess fruits Frequent tea Cacao (stimulating and drying) Sauna High activity (yoga + gym same day) Late fruit at night Light dinners Nuts in excess Irregular caloric density All of this increases Vata and reduces anabolic stability. First Step: Stabilise Vata Before Building Muscle Do not focus first on strength goals. Focus on nourishment and grounding. Daily Ayurvedic Corrections 1. Mandatory: Daily Abhyanga Use warm Ksheera Bala Taila. Massage entire body before bath Leave for 20–30 minutes Warm shower This: Grounds Vata Improves muscle tone Reduces anxiety Prevents overstretch injuries Supports strength building This is non-negotiable for Vata types. 2. Modify Morning Routine Avoid: Raw fruits early morning Oats daily Excess cacao Cold protein shakes Instead: Warm cooked breakfast Example: rice porridge with ghee + dates Or moong dal + rice kichadi Or gluten-free warm porridge with ghee and cardamom Add: 1–2 teaspoons ghee daily Soaked almonds (peeled) 3. Reduce Vata-Aggravating Foods Avoid or reduce: Excess oats Millets in excess (especially dry forms) Raw salads Too many fruits Dry rice cakes Cold foods Excess tea Very light dinners Skipping fats Increase: Rice Moong dal Root vegetables Warm stews Sesame oil Ghee Coconut in moderation Well-cooked gluten-free grains 4. Gym Strategy Change Do NOT do intense Vinyasa + gym same morning. Instead: Alternate days Slow strength training Heavier weights, fewer reps Long rest between sets Avoid overexertion Vata does not respond to high repetition fast movement. It responds to slow, grounded resistance. 5. For Muscle Building (Ayurvedic Support) Vata Shamana Aushadhi options (under supervision): Ashwagandha churna with warm milk (or almond milk) Shatavari (if dryness prominent) Bala formulations Chyawanprash (small quantity) These nourish Mamsa and calm Vata. 6. Emotional Regulation & Anxiety Vata causes: Fast emotional swings Overthinking Boredom sensitivity Restlessness Add: Fixed meal timings Fixed sleep timing (sleep before 10:30 pm) Oil in nostrils (2 drops sesame oil at night) Warm foot oiling before bed Avoid: Overstimulation Excess breathwork that is fast Too much heat exposure Do slow pranayama: Nadi Shodhana Long exhalation breathing 7. Important: Your Injury Overstretching is classic Vata. Stop deep flexibility training temporarily. Focus on strength and stability. Flexibility is already your strength. 8. Weight Gain Fear When Vata stabilises: You will gain healthy muscle Not unwanted fat Body will look more toned and strong Right now your system is in catabolic mode. We shift it to anabolic mode by grounding. Summary: Your Body Needs Warmth Oiliness Routine Stability Heavier foods Less stimulation Slower training Daily oil massage
Hi… I think being slim is not a problem if you are healthy and active but if you want to gain weight Then start taking Ashwagandha churna -1tsp-BD Shatavari churna -1tsp-BD Both in warm milk Increase your protein diet too very important for muscle building
I really appreciate how aware you are of your body and mind. From an Ayurvedic perspective, your description strongly reflects a Vata-dominant constitution — naturally slim frame, small joints, flexible, active, creative, emotionally sensitive, variable energy, quick mind, and prone to overthinking. This is beautiful — but it needs grounding and nourishment. Right now, your main issue is not lack of exercise — it is lack of deep nourishment and recovery. You are doing: Yoga Gym Sauna Breathwork Active work life Lots of stimulation But your food pattern is very light, dry, and high in fruit. For someone trying to build muscle and stabilize the nervous system, this can actually increase Vata and make muscle gain harder. Let’s simplify. 1. For Building Muscle (Ayurvedic View) Muscle tissue (Mamsa dhatu) builds only when: Digestion is strong Food is nourishing and grounding Rest is sufficient Nervous system feels safe What to adjust: Eat more cooked, grounding meals Oats and fruit are fine — but too much raw fruit + tea + cacao + light dinners = not enough anabolic nourishment. Add: Warm cooked grains (rice, quinoa, millet) Lentils or mung dal Root vegetables Good fats (ghee, olive oil, tahini) Paneer, tofu, or well-cooked legumes Post-workout warm meal (not just fruit) Reduce: Excess fruit at night Too many teas Cacao multiple times daily (stimulating for Vata) If you feel exhausted in workouts, it is usually under-fueling or nervous system fatigue — not weakness. 2. To Feel Stronger in Yoga (Headstand / Handstand) Flexibility is already high. You need: Strength training 3x/week max (not daily) More rest days Progressive overload (slow, structured strength) Protein consistently with meals Creatine is fine. But muscle grows during recovery — not during training. 3. For Anxiety + Emotional Fluctuation This is classic Vata imbalance. Add grounding rituals: • Warm oil self-massage (abhyanga) 3–4 times per week before shower • Early, regular dinner • No fruit before bed • Magnesium at night (you’re already taking it — good) • Ashwagandha (if suitable for you) can help stabilize stress response • Brahmi can support focus and mental clarity Most important: regular routine. Your system thrives on rhythm. 4. Very Important: Your Relationship With Food You mentioned: Fear of gaining weight Overthinking how much to eat Weight loss from medication + antibiotics This tells me your nervous system has been in survival mode for years. Muscle building requires psychological safety with food. Right now your body may still be in “protect and conserve” mode. The goal is not bigger — it is stronger and stable. 5. First Ayurvedic Steps for You If you are new, start simple: Eat warm, cooked meals 2–3 times daily Reduce raw fruit and tea Add healthy fats Oil massage weekly Fixed sleep time One full rest day per week Breathwork that is calming (not stimulating) Do less — nourish more. You have a beautiful constitution for becoming a yoga teacher — light, expressive, inspiring. But to sustain that long-term, your foundation must be stronger and more grounded. If you would like, I can help you with: A structured Vata-balancing muscle-building meal plan A weekly routine combining yoga + strength safely Ayurvedic herbs tailored to your digestion and cycle A personalized consultation would allow me to refine this specifically for your body type and goals.
