How to Treat Insomnia in Ayurveda through Herbal Remedies?

What is the definition of insomnia?

Insomnia is defined as the difficulty in falling asleep or staying asleep, even when a person has the chance to do so.

It is the most common sleep complaint in which people can feel dissatisfied with their sleep and usually experience one or more of the following symptoms: difficulty concentrating, low energy, mood disturbances, fatigue, and decreased performance in work or at school.

Studies show that insomnia negatively affects work performance and can damage relationships.

The causes, symptoms, and severity associated with sleeplessness may vary from person to person.

In most cases, people with insomnia report a worse overall quality of life.

What is an Ayurvedic View on Insomnia?

In Ayurveda, insomnia is correlated with ‘Nidranasha’ or ‘Anidra’ which is called a loss of sleep.

Nidranasha is defined as the difficulty in maintaining sound sleep or waking up early and unable to sleep again.

Many ayurvedic medicines for treating insomnia are available ensuring effective results.

In Ayurveda texts, it is clearly mentioned that it is responsible due to prana vata, sadhak pitta and tarpak kapha.

Prana vata is a subtype of vata and its aggravation in the body leads to insomnia, anxiety, stress and depression.

Sadhak pitta is a sub-dosha of Pitta which controls the emotions as well as spirituality.

Tarpak kapha is a sub-dosha of kapha that provides nourishment to the brain cells and facilitates a good sleep during night.

Imbalance of Tarpak kapha causes poor nourishment of brain cells which leads to chronic insomnia.

Boost Your Immune System

How to Make Your Immunity Strong to Fight Against Covid-19?

Our immune system does a remarkable job against disease-causing microorganisms and defends them amazingly. But in certain circumstances, it fails.

A disease-causing germ successfully invades into the body and makes a person sick. So in this situation, the certain question arises i.e.

Is it possible to intervene in this process and boost your immunity?

How can we improve our diet? Are vitamins or herbal preparations to build up immunity?

What lifestyle changes should be taken for building up a perfect immune response?

A person may possess chronic low immunity. From an Ayurveda point of view, the human body is made up of seven tissue layers or dhatus which is responsible for our immunity.

These layers of tissue known as Rasa (lymph), Rakta (blood), Mamsa (muscle), Medha (fat), Asthi (bone), Majja (bone marrow) and Shukra (semen/reproductive tissue. The final essence of these seven tissues is known as ojas.

Ayurveda offers a natural way to maintain a healthy body. The tridoshas vata, pitta, kapha are known as energies of the body.

In Ayurveda, there is a theory of immunity known as beej bhumi theory, which means seed and land.

In this case, the body is related to land while the infections are related to the seed.

If there is an accumulation of ama in the body and the body is lacking the ojas , then the infection will find the fertile ground in the same way as the fertile land will sprout the seeds.

If the digestion is strong and ojas is there, then the seeds of infection will not affect the body just like infertile land will not sprout the seeds.

When the seasons change, the susception of respiratory infection increases.

Body function differently in cold and hot seasons and digestive fire can fluctuate irregularly. One should follow a healthy lifestyle and diet for strong immunity.

Immunity is the quality or state of being immune we can say a condition of being able to resist a particular disease especially through preventing the development of pathogenic microorganisms or by counteracting the effects of its product.

Whole immunity system consists of special cells, protein, tissue, and organs which defends people against germs and micro-organism every day. This type of infectious disease is called immunity.

  • Negative emotions like jealousy, envy, anger, and guilt

What is the origin of the coronavirus?

These viruses originate from a range of animals and sometimes it jumps to humans, this is called a spillover. It can also occur from a range of factors such as mutations in the virus or increase contact between humans and animals.

How coronavirus can be transmitted?

The respiratory viruses are transmitted through droplets when an infected person coughs or sneeze or through when something is contaminated with the virus. These droplets land on objects or surfaces around the person. Other people can catch this virus by touching those infected objects or surfaces then touching their eyes, mouth or nose.

People can also catch COVID-19 if they breathe in droplets from an infected person who coughs out or exhales droplets. So it is important to stay more than 1 meter (3 feet) away from the person who is sick.

People who are in close contact with animals such as live animal market workers and those who are caring for those people who are infected with viruses such as family members or health care workers.

There may be several symptoms that range from mild to severe. There can be fever, respiratory symptoms such as cough and shortness of breath. But in most of the severe cases, there is pneumonia, kidney failure, and death.

How coronavirus can be diagnosed?

It can be diagnosed based on a test known as PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction). This test identifies the virus which is based upon its genetic fingerprint.

What are the preventive measures to be taken to prevent coronavirus?

Several standard hygiene measures have been recommended to protect against infection and further spread.

This includes:

  1. Covering your mouth and nose during coughing or sneezing with mask, tissue or flexed elbow.
  2. Avoiding close contact with those who are unwell or sick.
  3. The appropriate use of masks and personal protective equipment especially in healthcare centers.
