Adult Mental Health Care & Emotional Wellbeing Support in India

Opportunities, responsibilities and challenges experienced in adult life impact emotional wellbeing over time. Careers and relationships, marriage and parenting, financial matters, health issues and one's personal expectations can sometimes be overwhelmingly emotional. Normal stress is one of the various occurrences of life, while mental health issues that are not going away and require attention and appropriate support. [1]

Mental health is the opposite of mental illness. It impacts on adults' thought patterns, emotions, decision making, relationships, coping, work performance and quality of life. Emotional wellbeing is crucial for someone to face life challenges, get over setbacks and grow as a person and in their career. [1]

Many adults have concerns like chronic stress, anxiety, depression, burn out, sleep issues, over thinking, panic attacks, and emotional exhaustion or relationship issues that go undetected. These concerns may have begun slowly and have been overlooked until they start to impact the person's ability to function, daily activities, physical health, or family life. [1][2]

Adult mental health is shaped by a number of interrelated factors such as brain health, sleep, nutrition, lifestyle habits, emotional resilience, relationships and physical wellbeing – at Manovaidya, we believe this. We do not just deal with symptoms – we want to know the full emotional picture for each person. [1][3]

We are led by Dr. Ankush Garg, the Mental Health Specialist and Founder of Manovaidya, who is a practitioner of Neuro-Ayurveda Development System, which is a 5-pillar model that includes a holistic approach to mental wellbeing support, comprehensive assessment and personalised guidance to support adults develop healthier, balanced lives.

All adults are unique. Emotional issues can occur due to work, family, health, relationships or personal issues.

Mental health is a crucial component of health. It affects adults' thinking, feelings, behaviour, decision making, emotional regulation and coping with life. [1]

As we grow up as adults, we go through the phases of life with their own opportunities and responsibilities. Emotional wellbeing can be affected as people start a career, manage relationships, have children, look after elderly parents, take care of their finances and cope with life changes.

It is normal to feel stressed, worried or down at times. If these feelings persist, are overwhelming or start to impact on work, relationships or daily functioning, however, it is important that they are discussed and suitably professional directed. [1]

Supporting adult mental health is not just about coping with emotional challenges and difficulties; it's about being resilient and improving emotional balance and wellbeing throughout life. [1]

Each adult has their own unique experience. Some may have one emotional issue or more than one emotional issue that impacts several areas of life.

Seeking professional support when emotional concerns persist

As with physical wellbeing, mental health is a key component of wellbeing, and it is important to take care of ourselves. [1]

Each person lives their life in a unique manner. Emotional wellbeing is influenced by personal experiences, relationships, physical health, work responsibilities, lifestyle habits and many other factors. For this reason, it is essential to grasp the whole person, rather than just the individual symptom.

We take a holistic approach to understanding your emotional wellbeing, your lifestyle, your behaviour and your mental health at Manovaidya before we can be able to provide you with personalised guidance.

We aim to enable the individual to have a clearer understanding of their emotional wellbeing and understand what steps can be taken to enhance their wellbeing in the longer term.

All consultations start with listening.

We make time to listen:

Step 2 – Comprehensive Mental Health Assessment

There is a structured assessment that looks at a number of factors which could impact emotional wellbeing.

These include:

At Manovaidya, mental health is seen as a condition of the adult and is approached as a structured system of 5 pillars: Neuro-Ayurveda Development System, which integrates emotional, biological and lifestyle factors. [5][6]

This strategy considers the brain-body-behaviour relationship and everyday lifestyle in relation to emotional symptoms and addresses mental wellbeing. [3][5]

1. Brain Nourishment System

A healthy brain function is important to support:

Attention

Memory

Decision-making

Emotional regulation

Concentration

Mental resilience

This pillar is about supporting healthy brain functions as part of emotional wellbeing.

2. Gut Response System

The gut-brain axis is the bidirectional communication between the two organs all the time. [3][4]

This pillar takes a holistic perspective and views healthy nutrition, digestion and gut health as part of the person's physical and emotional health. [3]

3. Neural Network System

Healthy thinking patterns continue to develop in adults through learning and experience.

This pillar is about improving strength:

Cognitive flexibility

Healthy thinking habits

Learning

Emotional adaptability

Problem-solving

4. Sensory Integration System

There are many ways our thinking, feeling and responding are impacted by our environment.

This pillar reflects sensory experiences and lifestyle factors which could affect stress, emotional regulation and wellbeing.

5. Behaviour Guidance System

Actions can be a response to emotional experiences rather than just repetition of behaviour.

This pillar allows persons to become aware of patterns of behaviour, create better coping mechanisms and learn positive lifestyle adjustments that will promote long-term mental health.

All people have unique experiences, strengths and challenges.

The support we provide at Manovaidya is personalised, depending on each person's emotional wellbeing and overall mental health.
