Ayurveda, in Sanskrit, means "the science of life," and according to the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, the end goal of ayurvedic remedies is to keep your body and mind in alignment, which helps keep you healthy. Anxiety is a condition involving the mind, but it can display itself physically through a racing heartbeat, muscle tension and sleeplessness. The ayurvedic explanation for anxiety, according to NCCAM, is an imbalance of the vata dosha--the life force that involves heart function, breathing and the mind. Ayurvedic home remedies for anxiety address both pieces of the puzzle through massage therapy, meditation and diet.
Massage and Acupressure
Massage therapy is used in ayurvedic tradition to ease anxiety. Massaging tense muscles helps you relax, and the physical relaxation may in turn help your mind stop racing with anxious thoughts.SAKSHAL Holistic recommends a full-body massage if possible, in order to calm the body. If you are under time constraints or do not have a partner who can administer a massage, a short scalp or foot massage can also relieve both physical and mental tension. Acupressure--an element of the traditional Chinese practice of acupuncture---might also serve as a calming measure. Applying pressure to a point in the center of your left hand calms what is called your prana, or life force. Find the right pressure point by making a fist so that your fingertips touch the center of your left palm. Use your right hand to apply pressure to the top of your middle finger, and hold for one minute.
