Age 45 years, weight 66kg, height 174 cm. Question- It concerns the mental issue. How to protect the memory & mental strength in the above scenario? What things to consume to look after the mental aspect (anxiety, memory etc..) which arises as a result of the above-mentioned recurring physical issue? If ashwagandha in winters then what in summers? I regularly do anulom vilom & kapalbhati & am quite active in my lifestyle. But am engaged in daily audit work which is taxing on my mind. I SEEK A REPLY IN THE MENTAL ASPECT OF THE ISSUE. I HAVE ALREADY GOT A REPLY REGARDING THE PHYSICAL ISSUE. Thanks
