So, it is the end of a woman\u2019s monthly menstrual period and ovulation. Also, it points to other changes in the body and mind, triggered in part because the body begins to produce fewer amounts of the hormones estrogen and progesterone (among others).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <strong>Ayurvedic medicine<\/strong>, when we enter the cycle of <strong>Menopause<\/strong>, the fertility of women withdraws and decreases only to give room for \u201cspiritual fertility.\u201d So, it does not consider this to be a disease but a time to promote health, new attributes, spiritual transformations, and be free of troublesome symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In particular, Menopause is a drastic change for women, during which the psycho-emotional and physiological personalities of women undergo critical change processes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, it should be remembered that the 3 doshas have an important influence on the life cycles, regardless of each person\u2019s constitution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Kapha prevails in early childhood until it enters puberty.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pitta dominates during adulthood and creativity until age 50, when the human being enters the stage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the case of the woman, Vata dominates predominantly and begins Menopause.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Does Menopause Manifest In The Three Doshas?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Dosha Vata<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">F<\/span>or many women with the dominant Vata dosha in their constitution, <strong><em>Menopause<\/em><\/strong> is a difficult challenge. So, they often feel overwhelmed by everything around them, both psycho-emotional and physical. As a result, permanently appear \u201cnew annoyances\u201d; everything is mixed up. So, especially at the emotional level, there are very intense fluctuations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fears and inner instability make them feel very uncomfortable, to the point of being able to enter depression. So, physically, the forces are reduced. So, the most straightforward daily routine seems an insurmountable obstacle.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, the sweating and heat appear very irregular, sometimes accompanied by fears and chills. So, the menstruation becomes more erratic than usual, with total absence for several months alternating with appearance every 14 days.

So, in these cases, consultation with a medical professional trained and experienced in Ayurvedic Medicine will be important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ways To Deal With Menopause<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ayurveda\u2019s holistic lifestyle, which includes a healthy diet, herbs, daily yoga, and meditation, can help women alleviate many of the discomforts of Menopause and move through this natural stage of life with grace.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although each woman\u2019s experience is unique, Menopause can be viewed as a time of transformation and even a blessing. Many women view Menopause as the beginning of their elder years, a time rich in experience and wisdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Here are six ways to deal with Menopause according to Ayurveda:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Diet<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eating a diet that is both Vata and Pitta pacifying is essential in managing Menopause. If you are especially vulnerable to pitta-based symptoms, avoid sour, spicy, and salty foods and those that contain vinegar. Instead, try to opt for bitter, astringent, and sweet foods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"433\" height=\"289\" src=\"https:\/\/arogyadham.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Diet.png\" alt=\"Ayurvedic Diet To Deal With Menopause\" class=\"wp-image-2081\" style=\"width:458px;height:auto\" title=\"Ayurvedic Diet To Deal With Menopause\" srcset=\"https:\/\/arogyadham.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Diet.png 433w, https:\/\/arogyadham.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Diet-300x200.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 433px) 100vw, 433px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, if you experience vats-based symptoms, try to integrate cooked and warm foods and those containing \u201cgood\u201d fats into your diet. You can also opt for sweet, sour, and salty foods. However, excess consumption of these foods may lead to pitta imbalance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drinking warm water and eating greens also helps balance Apana Vata, a variety of Vata responsible for elimination and menstruation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Limiting your intake of caffeine and alcohol and cooking with ghee may also help to manage the effects of Menopause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Lifestyle<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regular exercise during Menopause is essential because it can help build bone mass, prevent excess weight gain, and alleviate stress and anxiety symptoms. In addition, weight-bearing or resistance training can help build muscle mass and stimulate bone growth.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This strengthens the skeletal system and helps protect against osteoporosis. In addition, regular aerobic activity can help to improve cardiovascular strength, help the body maintain a healthy weight, and relieve stress and anxiety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best exercise program during the menopausal years is a balance of aerobic activity combined with resistance and flexibility training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<strong>3. Herbs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/arogyadham.in\/our-herbal-museum\/\">Herbal supplementation<\/a> <\/strong><\/em>is a healthy and natural way to support healthy hormone levels and maintain physical and mental well-being. Shatavari and Vidari contain\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Phytoestrogen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><em><strong>phytoestrogens<\/strong><\/em><\/a>,\u00a0which help to regulate the erratic hormone levels during Menopause. Brahmi and Shankhapushpi are soothing to the nervous system and help calm mental agitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is essential to never self-medicate; instead, consult one of our<strong><em> <a href=\"https:\/\/arogyadham.in\/our-team\/\">Ayurvedic Doctors<\/a><\/em><\/strong> about which prescription may be suitable for your specific needs, or you can come to our<em><strong> Ayurvedic Treatment Centre<\/strong><\/em> and rest assured that 4 Generations of Ayurvedic Doctors in India will be here to treat you and help you to deal with Menopause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Yoga<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Women experience emotional and physical fluctuations throughout their lives as part of the natural ageing process; yoga can be a valuable tool to help regulate hormones. The hormonal changes we experience in Menopause are the same hormones that affect you during menstruation, which can also cause PMS symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Easy Pose (Sukhasana)<\/em><\/strong> is the perfect pose to help stabilise the fluctuation of hormones. Sit cross-legged on your mat with closed eyes and take three deep breaths. Allow your mind to rest as you acknowledge the thoughts passing through your mind\u2019s eye. Then, bring your attention to the breath, relax, and let the pose work magic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/arogyadham.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/yoga-therapy-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Woman Practicing Sukhasana Outdoors On A Yoga Mat\" class=\"wp-image-1718\" style=\"width:457px;height:auto\" title=\"Woman Practicing Sukhasana Outdoors On A Yoga Mat\" srcset=\"https:\/\/arogyadham.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/yoga-therapy-1-980x654.jpg 980w, https:\/\/arogyadham.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/yoga-therapy-1-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Another yoga pose that can help you with Menopause is a simple forward bend or downward-facing dog. Dogs are gentle inversions that increase blood flow to the head and heart. Poses that strengthen the lower abdominal area, such as Locust, Bow, and Boat, will help to bring energy and increase circulation to the ovaries, uterus, and entire pelvic region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An <strong><em>Ayurveda <\/em><\/strong>and <strong><em>Yoga Retreat<\/em><\/strong> is a fantastic way to kickstart your Yoga practice and get balanced with the wonders of this medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. Pranayama<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pranayama, or breath control, can cool, calm, or invigorate during the experience of hot flashes or anxiety. Yogic breathing is a way to bring extra energy into the body or a sense of relaxation. Breathing techniques are essential during this time to keep the proper level of energy flowing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Cooling Breath is a modified version of Sitali Pranayama and can be done anytime, anywhere. This breath practice will often stop a hot flash if you can catch it just as it begins. So practice Cooling Breathing regularly to be readily available when you feel a hot moment coming on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/arogyadham.in\/blog\/pcos-causes-symptoms-and-treatment\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/arogyadham.in\/blog\/pcos-causes-symptoms-and-treatment\/\">PCOS: Causes, Symptoms, And Treatment<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Instructions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sit (or stand) in a comfortable position with your spine straight.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open your mouth, purse your lips as you would whistle, and slowly draw cool air in over your tongue and into your lungs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Close your mouth and exhale slowly through your nose.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat as many times as you like and as often as needed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can also practice cooling breathing in bed if you have hot flashes during the night.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>6.
