Dr.V.C. Ajith Kumar, Director and Principal Consultant of Ayush Ayurveda, Singapore starts off saying that stress is a common experience in today’s fast-paced world, and it affects millions of people around the globe. Stress can be caused by a wide range of factors, including work pressure, financial difficulties, relationship problems, and health issues.
Dr.V.C. Ajith Kumar, Ayurveda Doctor, Ayush Singapore, adds, “It can manifest in various ways, such as anxiety, depression, irritability, insomnia, and physical symptoms such as headaches and muscle tension.”
Ayurveda, an ancient Indian system of medicine, offers a holistic approach to managing stress and promoting mental and emotional well-being.
According to Dr.V.C. Ajith Kumar, Ayurveda Doctor, Ayush Singapore, stress arises from an imbalance of the three doshas – vata, pitta, and kapha – in the body. When the doshas are in balance, the mind and body are in harmony, and stress is less likely to occur.
