Detail

Ayurveda understands what is often left unacknowledged: that emotional and mental weight does not stay in the mind. It settles into the body. It changes how we sleep, how we digest, how we think, how we feel when we wake up in the morning.

Grief slows the system. Sustained stress keeps the nervous system locked in a state of alert long after the immediate cause has passed. Trauma - even old trauma - can quietly shape the way the body functions for years.

This is not weakness. It is the body doing exactly what it is designed to do - holding what the mind cannot yet process. What it needs is not to be pushed through. It needs to be understood, and given the right conditions to recover.

In this 90-minute consultation, Dr Ajit takes the time that this kind of work genuinely requires. He listens without agenda. He draws on more than four decades of clinical experience to understand not just what you are experiencing, but why your body is responding the way it is - and what it needs to begin finding its way back.
As the nervous system begins to settle, something unexpected often happens. People don't simply feel calmer. They think more clearly. They make decisions more easily. They begin to reconnect with themselves in a way that stress and grief had quietly made impossible.

You will leave with a clear, practical plan covering dietary and lifestyle guidance, herbal support, and simple daily practices to help your nervous system settle and your energy return.

When the mind is given what it needs, the whole system begins to recover.

Who It's For

This consultation is for you if:

• You are carrying grief, loss, or the aftermath of something that changed your life.

• Stress has become so constant it no longer feels like stress - it just feels like you.

• You are experiencing burnout - not tiredness, but the kind of depletion that rest alone doesn't fix.

• You are navigating the emotional weight of a relationship breakdown, major life transition, or prolonged uncertainty.

• Anxiety or low mood has been affecting your sleep, your focus, or your ability to feel present.

• You have tried other forms of support and something still feels unresolved.

• You simply know you are not yourself - and haven't been for longer than you'd like to admit.

What to Expect

This consultation gives you the time and space to understand what has changed, why your body has responded this way, and what it needs to begin recovering.

• Deep listening - an unhurried conversation in which Dr Ajit takes time to genuinely understand what you are carrying and how it has been affecting you

• Ayurvedic insight - a clear explanation of how emotional and mental weight may be influencing your nervous system, digestion, sleep, and energy

• Your reset plan - dietary and lifestyle guidance, herbal support, and simple daily practices to calm the nervous system and build resilience

• Integration - time for questions and reflection so you leave grounded, understood, and clear on your next steps

This is not about pushing through or coping better. It is about restoring balance where it has been quietly depleted. When stress and grief are addressed at their root, clarity returns, energy gradually rebuilds, and you begin to feel more like yourself again.

What our clients are saying

"15 years ago I had the privilege of having an appointment with Dr. Ajit at Planet Ayurveda and so started my Ayurveda journey of self care, with the added awareness of knowing which foods suited my body type. I am now 85 and thankful to still be an active healthy person, which I feel is the result of having embraced all the simple routines that Dr. Ajit taught me. Thank you Planet Ayurveda*"

"I was introduced to Planet Ayurveda by a friend in 2006 or so and have been going ever since. When I follow Dr Ajit's advice my health always hugely improves. Dr Ajit's recommendations work very well but you have to follow them if you want great results. The therapeutic treatments have been of great benefit to me. The ones I normally have are the Katibasti, massage and steam, and shirodhara.

As someone who drives a lot and plays violin the katibasti has been excellent in curing my back problems and preventing them from reocurring. The massage and Shirodhara help me release tension and feel relaxed. I find they have a calming affect, putting both body and mind into a well balanced state. Many thanks to Dr Ajit and the team for the great care I have received over the years, and am still receiving!"

“He guided us with various massage treatments and within 2 months and just 6 appointments, I could walk again without crutches. And not just small distance I am talking about up to 2 kms. My physio and the team of doctors at the hospital were amazed with my progress. I was given 1 year to recover but Dr. Ajit and his wonderful team at Ayurda did it in just 2 months.

My family and I are so grateful to everyone here who have helped making this miracle happened.

Lot of love”

Ketana. S | Consultations

"Dr. Ajit is amazing! He spoke to me about the real causes of my problems and gave me a program to follow that would help me eradicate my issues from the root. No western medical doctor has done that before.

Thank you and highly recommend Ayurda."

Kriti. R | Consultations

"I have been visiting Planet Ayurveda and Dr Ajit for over 20 years now.

Throughout this period I have found each experience very restful, peaceful and practical. Whether I am having an Ayurvedic massage or simply there for a consultation with the Doctor the result is always satisfying and reassuring. When I am feeling insecure about the state of my health and I think Vata Dosha is out of balance I know it is time to visit Dr Ajit. Being a holistic based experience the Doctor will run through my diet, emotional health, take my pulse, and make very practical and insightful suggestions. If herbal remedies or old fashioned home remedies are needed then that will be indicated, then it is up to me to put the suggestions into practice.

I am very grateful to Dr Ajit and his team for all the care, love and attention they have shown over the years. I have a greater understanding of my body and emotions due to practicing Ayurvedic medicine."

“It was a relief to meet Dr Ajit and finally get a diagnosis for my symptoms and within a week I am feeling much more stable, calm and digestion settled. I also purchased Dr Ajit's book and can recommend this too.”

Rose. W | Consultations

"Dr. Ajit helped me resolve a recurrent and deadly eye inflammation issue called as Uveitis. I suffered from this condition for 3.5 years.


My left eye would regularly inflame causing vision loss, floaters in the eye, pain, headaches and many more challenges.


The eye inflammation started impacting on my work and on my ability to drive.

Dr. Ajit provided a holistic treatment through a daily routine and eye drops. This helped me to combat my eye condition. I am extremely grateful for Dr. Ajit’s advice. He has given me my eyesight back."

How Do Consulations Work?

During a consultation, Dr. Ajit will assess your body type and state of mind, identify the causative factors responsible for any imbalances (such as lifestyle, diet & environmental factors at work & home), and assess which areas of your body have been affected.

Dr. Ajit is known for his skill in the diagnosis of these problems through non-invasive techniques such as pulse diagnosis, tongue examination, iridology (developed by Dr. Ajit, based on Ayurvedic texts) as well as psychological, physiological and lifestyle factors.

After this diagnosis, he will structure a personal program, normally followed for one-month before returning for a follow-up consultation after this time. Your follow-up consultation/s are advised in order to make any necessary adjustments to your program.

In normal circumstances, 3 to 4 visits are all that is required to achieve the goal of a healthy and well-balanced life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

No. This is a mind-body Ayurvedic consultation, not talk therapy. While genuine conversation is at the heart of the session, the focus is on understanding how emotional weight is affecting your nervous system, digestion, sleep, and energy - and giving you a practical, personalised plan to restore balance. You will leave with specific steps, not just insight.

Many people come here after feeling stuck - having talked without finding resolution, or having been given tools that didn't address what was happening in the body. This consultation looks at how your body is holding what you have been through, not just what you are thinking or feeling. The plan you receive addresses both.

Yes. You will leave with a personalised daily plan including dietary and lifestyle guidance, herbal support, and simple grounding practices. The aim is to give your nervous system the conditions it needs to settle - so that clarity and energy can return naturally.

One consultation can bring significant relief and clarity. Lasting change builds through consistent daily practice over time. A follow-up after one month allows Dr Ajit to refine your plan as your body and nervous system begin to respond.

The Initial Consultation looks at your overall health - digestion, immunity, energy, hormones, and long-standing physical imbalances. The Mental and Emotional Wellbeing Consultation allows the extended time that emotional and mental recovery genuinely requires, and focuses specifically on restoring nervous system balance, calm, and clarity. If you are unsure which is right for you, the Initial Consultation is always a good place to begin - Dr Ajit will guide you from there.
