Why can't I fall asleep even when I'm tired?
This is a classic sign of Vata imbalance — the mind remains active even as the body is fatigued. Irregular routines, screen exposure late at night, and stress all aggravate this pattern.
What Ayurvedic therapies help with sleep?
Sirodhara and Abhyangam are widely used to calm the nervous system before sleep. A consistent evening routine (Dinacharya) — same wind-down time, warm foods, reduced screens — reinforces the effect.
Are there natural remedies I can start tonight?
Warm sesame oil foot massage before bed, a warm (not caffeinated) drink, and a fixed sleep time are simple Ayurvedic practices that support better sleep onset — though persistent insomnia warrants a proper consultation.
Is insomnia linked to stress?
Very closely — see our guide on Ayurveda for stress management, since addressing daytime Vata imbalance often improves night-time sleep.
