Ayurveda and the Growing Burden of Mental Health in Urban India - A Literary Review

Dr Shraddha Ramesh Mauskar

Vol. No. 21, Special Issue No 2 2026

Abstract:

Mental health issues are increasing rapidly in urban India due to factors like fast-paced lifestyles, work pressure, pollution, and social isolation. Anxiety, depression, and Stress-related disorders have become common, affecting people of all age groups. At the same time, modern treatments often come with side effects or do not address the root cause of the problem. This growing concern has made people look toward holistic systems like Ayurveda for support. The study reviews existing literature and studies on how Ayurveda is being used to address mental health concerns in urban settings. It also explores common Ayurvedic practices such as herbal remedies, meditation, yoga, dietary changes, and lifestyle adjustments. The information is simplified to help the general public understand the potential benefits and applications of Ayurveda in everyday life.
