Summary of article contents:

Mind is also one of the three basic pillars of life along with body and consciousness. Ayurveda gives prime importance to positive mental health. Anything that disturbs the balance of body and mind is known to produce a disease In Ayurveda, more importance is given to the mental health of the rogi. Ayu is defined as the combined state of Shareera, Indriya, Satwa, and Atma. Here Satwa refers to Manas. Vishada means Sadness or fear which Rajasa and Tamasa doshas are increased. Lakshanas of Vishada in ayurveda can be Kayika, Vachika, and Manasika lakshanas. It is caused by the vitiation of Vata (Sharirika dosha) and Raja (Manasika dosha). Vitiation of Vata and Raja gets seated in Hridya (Heart) and ultimately causes vitiation of mind (Vibhrama) which finally leads to Vishada. Depression isn’t the same as being sad. It’s normal to feel blue or unmotivated from time to time, but depression is more constant. Its a serious mood disorder that can negatively impact health and quality of life, as well as those closest to you.
