Does Jyotish have cure for DEPRESSION ? - Something further

[Guest guest]

Dear Raja,

 

I forgot to add, there are two further important things in the

handling of such a case;

 

1- As much as possible, physical activity, on his part, will be very

helpful, e.g. long walks in nature etc. The working of the muscles,

is very beneficial in such a period, this generates coordination

between the mind (e.g. nervous system) and the body, and smooths out

the discharge of stress which is giving these symptoms.

 

2- Also there are very nice tonics for the nervous system in Ayur-

Ved, like the syrups Sumedha, Shankhi Pushpi Tagaradi etc. (these

should be prescribed by a doctor by the way).

 

There is one important difference between A-Ved remedies and what is

prescribed by the western doctor; Antidepressants and such in

western medicine, only supress the symptoms that are being

experienced, on the other hand, A-Ved medicines, work towards

correcting the dosha inbalance that has resulted in the body, which

is curing from the root of the problem. According to my opinion and

experience, this would not be sufficient in itself, but would be

very helpful. What's more such remedies do not have side effects

like western medicines mostly have.

 

And last but not least, try to direct his attention to positive and

blissful things, which I know is not easy, but possible, with some

guidance on your side. This in itself is a treatment.

 

Best wishes, Sabri.
