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.

John Whyte, Ojai, CA (detox, depression, insomnia, liver, gallbladder)

"I first sought out Khabir’s help as I was feeling effects that often coincide with over exposure to heavy metals.  I knew what these effects were as I work in manufacturing, where these symptoms are closely monitored on the factory level.  I was feeling dizziness, lightheaded, metallic tastes, slight depression and disruption in sleep.

We completed a full detox of the liver and gallbladder.  I can say that since completion, the symptoms are gone.  Im sleeping better and my focus is back and sharp.  Due to the mass amounts of heavy metals that are put in our atmosphere thru ground and airborne aerosols, we all need to detox just to keep our body running properly. Thanks Khabir!" John Whyte, Ojai, CA, November 2011

Rose Marie Pronovost, Ojai, CA (diet, weight, insomnia, menopause)

"It is accurate to say that my life, in terms of my eating habits, has changed dramatically as a result of my recent (Sept-Oct. 2011) weekly meetings with Khabir. As a 64 year old woman I thought I was a healthy eater, but had much difficulty losing weight and sleeping through the night (yeah menopause) . This has all changed since I started following the Ayurvedic guidelines, taking the herbs, tea, oils and food supplements and advice, given with heartfelt earnestness and a sense of humor from Khabir. I can now, sleep through the night, on most nights, without taking medication. That coupled with increased energy, knowledge of how my body responds to the right foods for my dosha, and education in this eating lifestyle has made a major difference in my life.  Thanks Khabir for your guidance, support, enthusiasm and shared knowledge of nutrition, you have changed my life for the better." Rose Marie Pronovost, Ojai, CA, November 2011

SG, Santa Barbara, CA (talk, diet, nutrition, Ayurveda, weight, energy)

"HI Khabir, Thank you so much again for all the amazing info you shared in the workshop last week.  I have been searching for the optimal diet for decades; studying nutrition, healthy eating, ayurvedic etc. Even so, I still couldn’t figure out the ideal way to eat. Alas, now I know thanks to you and your workshop and it’s amazingly simple. I have now lost 7 pounds in the last 8 days and know I am finally on the way to easily creating a super healthy ideal weight for myself.  The diet you shared is actually quite inexpensive, even better it is satisfying, what my body seems to need and want. This has really transformed my world to know what to eat that will give me long lasting energy throughout the day without feeling a need to snack and I feel great. I am so grateful, thank you!" SG, Santa Barbara, CA, September 2011
