Ayurvedic Treatment for Stress

Without peace of mind, we can't enjoy all the good things in life. It doesn't matter how healthy our body may be, or how many assets, friends, family, pleasures, name and fame we may possess. Stress plays a role in the onset of just about every disease people face, from the common cold to heart disease. Not only stress is invisible, it is created by person who is affected by it. This realization helps people understand that, just as they have the ability to create the experience of stress, they also have the ability to create the experience of peace of mind. Ayurveda is a path to personal power, helping people learn how to gain control over the mind. Once in control, a person is no longer the slave of their thought process but rather its master.

Ayurvedic Approach to Stress Management

According to Ayurveda, stress on the body and mind is the primary reason for all problems - physical, mental, social, family, relationships, economical and spiritual problems in our life. Ayurvedic texts says that an excess of 'rajas' lies at the root of stress. Rajas is one of the three gunas or qualities that are universal in nature. Excess rajas results in craving, attachment, and desire which in turn lead to stress. Now, depending on your constitution, this vitiates the doshas or elements present in your body.
