Depression and mood swings are often secondary signs of deeper imbalances and may be connected to other areas of health. In many cases, underlying nutritional deficiencies can contribute to emotional lows and should be addressed promptly. In other instances, nervous system depletion or dysregulation may lead to fluctuations in one’s mental and emotional state.
Additional contributing factors may include hormonal imbalances, chronic stress, or improper dietary and lifestyle habits. According to Ayurveda, there are different types of low mood and emotional heaviness, each with its own causes and corresponding traditional therapeutic approaches.
Whether one experiences a subtle sense of sadness or a persistent emotional heaviness, traditional systems of healing offer holistic methods of support. When an individual is motivated and willing to implement dietary adjustments, adopt grounding lifestyle routines, and take herbal preparations traditionally used to uplift mood, meaningful progress is often possible.

Molly McCabe (Endometriosis, IBS, bladder infection, fatigue)
"I have been battling Endometriosis for 6 years. From cysts, IBS, bladder infections, fatigue, chronic intense pain all month long, even worse on my period have been my symptoms and to say the least has been taxing. I started the protocol the Dr, Khabir has started me on. I went from up to 8 movements a day (mal- nutrition and constant weight loss) to 2-3 a day. My energy level is back so much I have forgotten how to use it! My stomach settled and my poop pains kept getting less. After 3 weeks my pain was almost completely gone. I also have been surprised with the fact that I haven’t gotten bored or over the meal plan! It’s actually making it easier for me, I don’t have to think about what to eat! So thank you, Khabir. You have given me back my life, I can go on a hike again, and with no pain. I am not always tired and weak and totally and mentally distraught anymore! Thank you for your work in really seeing my body in its fullness and complexity and not treating it as if it were the same as everyone else!" Molly McCabe, May 2018
