Ayurveda

Has anyone ever heard of Ayurveda (5000 year old Indian holistic healing system)? Has anyone ever tried this type of treatment?

I have heard of it, but don't know anything about it. I think anything that is natural is worth a try. If you try it, let us know if it helps. God bless you, and gentle hugs.

I am seeing a naturopath/acupuncturist at the moment who practices Ayurvedic medicine. From what little I understand if it, it is based on your body type, and there are eight body types, but also measuring a patients yin and yang/light and dark/male and female/cold and hot, to find the imbalances in the body. For instance I am told that I have too much yang and my yin is very weak, causing too much tension and fatigue and preventing me from being able to rest or sleep, essentially my "engine" is running too hot and because it can't cook down I cannot switch off. I have only just started with this, i don't know what herbs he will put me on, but I have to record all my food supplement and fluid intake for a week and then summarise how I feel on the day, sleep quality etc. Then he will assess what my body type is and formulate my treatment and diet from that. I'll be honest, I'm pretty open minded but feeling a bit skeptical about this one, but I will let you know how it goes.
