Ever felt mentally dull, forgetful or just unable to focus? That’s what most people call brain fog. It’s like your mind has a cloud over it, making it hard to think clearly or remember things. You may feel distracted, tired or slow, even after a full night’s sleep. According to Ayurveda, brain fog happens when Agni (your mental fire) is weak and Vata dosha is aggravated, disrupting mental clarity and focus.
Luckily, simple natural remedies can help you clear that cloud and boost your brain power.
Celeb Nutritionist Shweta Shah’s Ayurvedic Tips for Brain Fog
Celebrity nutritionist Shweta Shah, known for training top Bollywood stars and athletes like Katrina Kaif, Deepika Padukone, Rakul Preet Singh, Urvashi Rautela, Sakshi Dhoni, Gautam Gambhir and Harbhajan Singh, shared her quick Ayurvedic tips to beat brain fog. She combines modern nutrition with Ayurveda to create health plans that really work.
On Instagram, she revealed two easy remedies you can do on an empty stomach:
Remedy 1: Brahmi and Cow Ghee
- Take ¼ tsp Brahmi powder with 1 tsp warm cow ghee in the morning.
- Brahmi helps improve memory, calm the mind, and increase focus.
- Ghee boosts absorption of nutrients and nourishes brain tissues.
Remedy 2: Nasya with Cow Ghee
- Put 2 drops of cow ghee in each nostril on an empty stomach.
- This Ayurvedic practice lubricates nasal channels, calms the nervous system, and enhances clarity.
- Avoid Nasya if you have a cold, sinus infection, or blocked nose.
Shweta emphasises that consistency matters more than quantity. These are simple rituals, but their impact on mental sharpness can be powerful.
Simple Steps for a Clearer Mind
In addition to these remedies, Ayurveda suggests:
- Proper sleep – A rested mind clears brain fog naturally.
- Hydration – Drink water first thing in the morning.
- Balanced diet – Include warm, easy-to-digest meals.
- Mindful breathing – Even 5 minutes a day can calm Vata and enhance clarity.
With just a few small changes and simple Ayurvedic remedies, you can fight brain fog, boost focus and feel sharper every day. Keep these rituals handy for those days when your mind feels clouded.
