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.

"I was skeptical at first about working with a nutritionist on the phone, however, Khabir has proved to be very effective in helping me improve my diet and my overall health. I feel more energy after all the superfood supplements he recommended and I'm sleeping much better too. More importantly for me, I’m losing weight and am clear about what I have to do to keep losing weight. Before I starting with Khabir on the phone and Skype I had crazy food cravings and was fatigued mostly in the afternoon. It is just so incredible that changing my diet and taking Khabir’s recommended supplements all from food sources could help my conditions so quickly and without vitamins. I cannot than you enough Khabir and I look forward to visiting you someday." James Blake, Los Angeles, CA, April 2011

Ashley Pintek, Los Angeles, CA, April 2011
