Beloved Gurudev, I have a vatta imbalance. My mind is so restless most of the time. It is almost impossible to meditate deeply. What to do?

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:

These imbalances are not permanent. You call it imbalance because it is impermanent. It can’t be there for too long.
If vatta imbalance is there, it is going to go away. A little rest, an ayurvedic massage, a little attention on food, and some good sleep, it will be gone.
You shouldn’t sit and worry about it too much. It is the nature of the body, sometimes it gets very stiff, sometimes it becomes very loose. Same thing with the head! What do you do? That is how the nature is.
Do what you can, and do what is to be done, and just move on.
