Hi All,

 

I've been struggling with how to create an herbal formula for someone

who has both opposing symptoms and would like some suggestions.

 

Patient has acute apathy, complacency and feels to be quite

" stuck-in-the-mud " . But also shows daily resentment and critical

blaming of others and self. Both Pitta and Kapha imbalance seems to

be equal.

 

Should there be two different formulas? Or one formula that has

opposing qualities of light, sharp and cool?

 

I would gladly be happy to see any suggestions

hi. i guess u already know we need more details about that person. but u can try

to solve the problems one at a time. find out which was first disbalanced ,

which is more severly affected and start with that one. i don't know that

person, but maybe u don't need to reduce pitta and kapha, but only to make them

sattva. also increasing vata would reduce both pitta and kapha.i would start by

reducing kapha wich gives him/her apathy. pitta disbalance is not so nice for

others but at least your patient will be more dynamic and motivated to do

something for getting out of this mood.

good luck

Dear McFarland,

All the symptoms you have described under MANAS-ROGA. When you have symptoms of

two doshas combined, first sort out the medicines for the group of disease you

are treating ie Manas-roga in this case. Then find out which herbs are having

common properties to treat Pitta and Kapha Dosha. Select the proper combination

according to your clinical experience.

There are many Ayurvedic combinations which have herbs with opposing qualities,

but they seemingly do not oppose one another, but compliment and balance each

other.
