Everyone occasionally feels sad or gloomy.  But these feelings pass within a couple of days.  When a person has a depressive disorder, it interferes his daily life. It leaves pain for the person who is affected and those who care about him.  World Health Organization define depression as a common mental disorder, presented with depressed mood, loss of interest or pleasure, feeling of guilt or low self-worth, disturbed sleep or appetite, low energy and power of concentration. Depression cannot just be blown away, it has to get treated.

Ayurveda mentions depression as "Vishada roga. From an Ayurvedic perspective, we are at our core healthy, whole, and happy by nature.

Ayurveda Way Of Life !!!

Ayurveda Way Of Life 



Ayurveda, is an ancient system of medicine, originated in India before 5,000 years. The term Ayurveda is derived from the Sanskrit words Ayur (life) and Veda (science or knowledge). Thus, the knowledge of life.

Ayurveda advises us to blend our modern habits with the ancient wisdom by using natural substances, medicines and herbs which help us to lead a healthy, happy, stress-free and disease-free life. Ayurveda is a system based on the principle of maintaining an equilibrium between the interrelated relationships within the body, mind and spirit. It helps the patient to understand the benefits of knowing their body as well as mind and to live in an intimate relationship with nature. Ayurvedic literature has remedies for age-related diseases like memory loss, osteoporosis, diabetic wounds, etc. for which no efficient medicine is available in modern therapy.

According to the concept of good management or Swasthavritha (a branch of Ayurveda), Ayurveda insists that the ‘Fault’ or Dosha, the ‘Tissue’ or Dhatu and the ‘Impurity’ or Mala should be in harmony with each other, with all the components are in a properly balanced state. These are basically therapeutic measures to prevent and cure diseases. Thus, Ayurvedic procedures are done either to detoxify the body or as a prelude to strengthening the immune system. Even today Ayurvedic medicine maintains its holistic approach to health and treatment of diseases. The main goal of this holistic medicine is to fight against disease, promote good health and prevent disease occurrence. For this swasthavritha explains daily regimens, seasonal regimens and tips to follow a healthy lifestyle.

Ayurveda seeks to diagnose patient's conditions rather treating them with internal preparations, diet, and habit restrictions. Plant-based preparations play a major role in the healing process. In broad terms, there is no substance in the world that cannot be used as a potential medicine. By the proper equilibrium in the body, the processes of physical deterioration and disease can be reduced. This is accomplished through proper eating, thinking and living habits and the use of herbal remedies to treat diseases.

Also, Ayurvedic medicines can be safely used with other conventional medicines.  They are non-toxic and non-invasive in nature. They are widely used to treat several physical as well as psychological conditions. Arthritis, obesity, hypertension, neurological disorders, cold, constipation, skin problems, ulcer, acne, allergies, asthma, anxiety, chronic fatigue syndrome, depression, diabetes, immune problems etc. Since Ayurvedic medicines have natural ingredients, they do not have any side effects. These medicines make a person’s body and mind disease-free. So that Ayurveda should be considered as a part of our life.

How does Ayurveda help in Curing Diseases?

 






Ayurveda is based on the principle that diseases are nothing but excesses of one or more of the five primary elements (the body is made up of five primary elements, which also form the basis of the entire universe. The elements are ether (space), air, fire, water, and earth). For example, hyperacidity and hot temper are excesses of heat, the fire element. This principle is based on the fact that what is inside the body of an individual is the same as what is outside. The microcosm (individual consciousness) is the same as the macrocosm (cosmic consciousness). Each cell of our system represents the whole body in every aspect. Ayurveda simply interprets the laws of nature that are responsible for the health or the disease.

 

These five elements influence everything in this universe. Food, weather etc. too have specific effects on our system, depending on their element-composition. Each constitution (Vata, Pitta or Kapha) tends to become unbalanced or excessive. By following a diet and a routine that reduces the excesses, one regains and retains this crucial balance. Balancing produces healing and prevents and reverses the ageing process, and it is achieved through Panchakarma, Ayurveda therapies, Herbal medications, Personalised diet, Yoga and lifestyle changes.

 

While Ayurveda considers symptoms as part of the picture presented by the patient, its aim is not the elimination of symptoms. It is concerned with the uniqueness of each patient, and how his/her makeup, personality, history and lifestyle have led him/her to the current discomfort. Each symptom is examined in terms of the implied imbalance/disharmony to which it points, and the true cause of the problem is understood. Ayurveda then educates the patients to them help understand their body and how their thoughts, speech, actions and lifestyle, in general, have affected their health. They are shown how to live by their body’s propensities and susceptibilities, as well as to be in harmony with their environment and the laws of nature to restore themselves to health.

 

Treatment of the disease consists in avoiding causative factors responsible for disequilibrium of the body-matrix or any of its constituent parts, through the use of Panchakarma procedures, medicines, appropriate diet, activity and regimen for restoring the balance and strengthening the body mechanisms to prevent or minimize future occurrence of the disease. Normally treatment measures involve the use of medicines, specific diet and prescribed activity routine.

 

What is important to bear in mind is that, in other systems – where a remedy might be given to alleviate the symptom, say a persistent headache – the underlying malaise may continue to grow and spread as the strain of one organ causes another to malfunction, and so on, Ayurveda seeks to solve the problem from the root, leading to an all-around healthy body.
