Healthy Sexual Life

Introduction

There are many couple now a days who find it difficulty to talk about Sex even under good environment. Whenever any Sexual problem occurs either the partner feels ashamed, hurt or there is a feeling of guilt which should not occur in any of the patients. There are many reasons why people suffer from suppressed sexual urges due to health conditions like weakness, obesity, diabetes and many more.

Ayurvedic Tips To Maintain Sexual Life

It is important to know what is the underlying cause that is stopping the urge and making the sexual life unpleasurable. This includes causes like lack of stamina, stressed life, depression, excessive alcohol intake, weight gain, reduced physical activity, not taking proper nutrition or not taking enough sleep. There can also be some neurological or hormonal condition resulting in reduced sexual life.

According to Ayurveda it is important to maintain the Dosha like if you are kapha with a strong body with a stable mind then you are able to have healthy sexual intercourse. If you are particularly Vata with less fat and less muscular than you have nervous temperament as well as sensitivity too in order to save the ojas. For Pitta type people it is always in the moderate form. Pitta people are not sensitive as Vata and not heart as the kapha people. Here are some ways that will help you in maintaining the healthy sex life including

1. Eat in Order to Love

If you want a strong libido then you need to add smoothies and salads into your diet. It is scientifically proven that you are able to burn 300 calories each time when you perform sexual intercourse. So, eating spinach or lettuce is not going to help it. Instead, you include foods that are good cooked in high quality oils like clarified butter, olive oil or coconut oil. Avoid eating raw foods as it may cause drying and will reduce your vital juices as well. Try to drink milk that is spiced up with turmeric, cardamom and other species. Spiced milk is one of the best drinks to make your life healthy as well.

2. Connect with Your Partner

The sex life is not only based on lust it’s also based on trust as well as connection. In order to maintain it you should express your feelings to the partner and should talk about your ons and offs. It is important to grow together as a couple and it is better to perform meditation in the morning with some herbal tea. It is better to hold hands with each other or say some sweet thing to each other in order to make the relationship full of love. As written in the Fundamentals of Ayurveda, Vasant Lad says that when both the partners trust each other and, in that relationship, they are able to make love with awareness.

3. Yoga

It is very important to build your ojas in order to make your sex life fulfilling. So, to support your reproductive system and libido you should focus more on the grounding yoga poses like squats, seated twists, prone backbends and standing lunges. Perform Nadi Shodhana which is the Alternate Nostril breath method helping you to relax the body. It is even better if you perform yoga with your partner and this will help in building trust as well as bond.

4. Use Oils

It is better to include Oil in the diet and using coconut oil as a natural lubricant is better. As the commercial lube contains chemicals that can interrupt in your sex life. Giving each other a foot massage and oil massages can help in building the ojas which will help in protecting the body from illness. Men’s reproductive systems are cool by nature and Women reproductive systems are hot. Coconut oil works for both the partners and it’s better to avoid sesame oil because they have a heating effect.

Alternative Treatment of Agoraphobia (Anxiety Disorder)

Abstract

Agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder in which the person fears being in a situation where escape is quite difficult. People generally think that agoraphobia is a condition in which a patient is scared of open spaces but it is more complex than that. People suffering from this condition are scared of even very small things like visiting shopping centres, travelling in public transport or even leaving their house. Such people when find themselves in a stressful situation then they will experience panic attacks which include symptoms like rapid heart rate, flushed face, rapid breathing and many more. In this article we will be discussing the Agoraphobia causes, symptoms, its ayurvedic relation and management.

Introduction

Agoraphobia is believed to be a condition that arises due to genetic and environmental factors. Such a condition usually runs in the family, or certain emotional factors like death of someone near and dear can be the trigger factors. In the DSM-5 agoraphobia is kept under the category of phobia along with specific and social phobias. Agoraphobia can be related to other conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, and many more. If we talk about its relation in Ayurveda then it can easily be related to unmanda. It covers a wide range of insanity and manic disorders under it. Agoraphobia Is specifically related to bhayaja unmada. It is believed that sadhaka pitta is deemed to be predominantly responsible for mental functioning and emotions. It is seated in hridya and is responsible for mental functioning and emotions like fear (bhaya), valor (shaurya), anger (krodha), happiness (harsha), courage and buddhi (intelligence).

Agoraphobia

How does phobia manifest?

Rajas (action) and tamas (inertia) are two out of three guna of mana. These two guna causes the mind to deflect from its normal functioning and thus each and every emotion hits you hard. These two mana guna imbalances vata, pitta and kapha which result in mental disorders.

Causes of bhayaja unmanda

In ayurveda it is believed that the cause of unmada is antagonistic, defective or impure blood. It also includes causes like insult to gods, teachers and brahmins. Mental shock due to fear or any emotional trigger is also believed to be the reason for the occurrence of bhayaja unmada. (ch. Chi. 9/4)

Agoraphobia

Symptoms

The symptoms in this case are divided into two types, physical and cognitive symptoms.

Physical symptoms include rapid heart beating, rapid breathing, feeling a bit sick, chest pain, dysphagia that is difficulty in swallowing, diarrhea in some cases is also observed, trembling of hands and legs, feeling of being hot and sweat on forehead and face, dizziness, feeling faint and tinnitus. These are some of the signs of agoraphobia.

On the other hand cognitive symptoms include panic attack due to the fear of feeling stupid and embarresed in front of others, life threatening panic attacks, unable to escape froma space if you are feeling panic, loosing sanity and loosing control in public. Behavioural changes include avoiding going out, travelling in public transports, generally being housebound, avoiding to go far from home, irritation, usually staying alone and needing less people around etc.

Diagnosis

In Ayurveda the diagnosis of unmada or any other psychological condition is explained under manas roga vigyan. They acharyas have told specific lakshana when a person is suffering from manas roga. These lakshana involve fear(bhaya)- a person always seems like they are afraid of something, anxiety, sadness (mana shobha), self speaking, origin of many mana bhava at once like anger, fear, jealous, regret, lust, greed, pride etc. The correct diagnosis in this situation can only be made by observing and questioning the patient. The question must not be straight, try to choose situation based questions.

Treatment of Agoraphobia

Ayurveda explains mental health as the state of  well balanced and calm state of mind, being cheerful, pleasant sleep, steady mental faculties, pleasant and active state of sensory attributes, control over six dharnia vega that are kama, krodha, bhaya, lershya, shoka, lobha and moha. But if any of these is disturbed then it simply means mental health is disturbed. So for the treatment of mana vikara ayurveda explains three types of treatment that works on mana and body both.

These three types are

  1. Dev vyapashraya chikitsa
  2. Yukti vyapashraya chikitsa
  3. Satvavijya chikita

1. Dev vyapashraya chikitsa

Dev vyapashraya chikitsa works on controlling the mana and relaxes the mind.

2. Yukti vyapashraya chikitsa

It includes treatment, that is done by 3 ways:

  1. Antar bhimarjan chikitsa (treatment using internal medication)
  2. Bahir parimarjan chikitsa (treatment using external mind relaxing ways like shiro dhara etc.)
  3. Kshstra pranidhana

3.  Satvavajya chikitsa

This chikitsa works by developing a pravar type of stva in patients that prevents him/her from developing any mana vikar again.
