Ayurvedic View :

Ayurveda, unlike modern medical system, takes comprehensive approach in management of Anxiety.
Aggravated Prana Vatta weakens central nervous system and trigger psychological imbalance.


Causes of Psychological problems according to Ayurveda :

From the Ayurvedic Point of view, most depression is a Kapha imbalance that is the culmination of Vata and then Pitta going out of balance. Initially the brain's electrochemistry has an erratic overreaction ( Vata imbalance ), which triggers a loss of enzymatic activity in the metabolism ( Pitta imbalance ). Kapha responds by trying to glue everything down, bringing about heaviness, darkness, and stagnation that the mind-body interprets as the negative message of hopelessness and depression. In other words, because of specific etiological factors, vata from colon, pitta from the intestine, or kapha from the stomach enters the general circulation and lodges in the nervous system, interferes with normal functioning of the mind and nervous system, causes depression.
Sometimes depression is a pitta disorder. Allergies and the breakdown in metabolic processes they lead to can also disturb brain chemistry. This can cause dramatic mood swings, with depression as one of the consequences. Vata imbalance also can cause depression.

Moreover, it also reduces stress-related hormones by 26%. So, if you are looking for some natural remedies that actually work, then go for ashwagandha.

Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri):- Brahmi is native to Australia and India and has a long traditional use in Ayurvedic herbal medicine. Brahmi is a small perennial creeping herb that has an age-old reputation of curing stress. Brahmi acts as an adaptogen, which simply means that it helps the body adapt to new or stressful situations. When consumed, it is believed to increase the serotonin levels in the brain that help the mind keep calm and give relief from anxiety and nervousness. Brahmi has been shown to improve cognitive function and mental capacity including enhancement of learning.

Jatamansi (Spikenard):- Jatamansi is a perennial herb that helps manage insomnia and other sleeping disorders. It is also known for its anti-depressant, anti-stress and anti-fatigue properties.

Holy basil might also protect the liver, help with nicotine withdrawal, and elevate the mood, especially providing relief from mild depression.

Haidi (Turmeric):- Turmeric having curcumin can stimulate serotonin and dopamine production in the brain. The two hormones are linked with emotional well-being in humans. The bioactive compound curcumin found in turmeric helps treat anxiety by boosting serotonin and dopamine levels naturally. Research suggests that turmeric may be more effective than some antidepressants for treating anxiety and depression. There is a correlation between inflammation and stress-related disorders like anxiety and depression. Acute stress present in panic disorders can cause high levels of inflammation in anxiety.
