Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is a chronic psychiatric condition characterized by persistent and excessive worry, associated with restlessness, disturbed sleep, and irritability. In India mental health survey estimates a prevalence of anxiety disorders to be approximately 3.6%. In Ayurvedic nosology, Anxiety is closely related with Chittodvega, which is basically due to Vata Pitta prakopa. Jatamansi is a well known Medhya Rasayana having Anxiolytic and sedative properties. Dhupan is a traditional Ayurvedic procedure where Ayurvedic herbs are burned to release volatile therapeutic vapors. Dhupan therapy acts through olfactory pathways to influence the limbic system.
