According to ayurveda, heart is one vital organ that has the spirit of all body tissues and further helps in maintaining and promoting healthy life.
As per ayurveda, the body is governed by three doshas named as Vata, Pitta and Kapha and our heart health is also managed by three sub-doshas commonly known as Vyana Vata (blood flow and beat), Sadhaka Pitta (emotional balance), Avalambaka Kapha (Sense of security) and Vyana Vata (blood flow and beat). Healthy heart lead to healthy mind and so extreme emotional anxiety can be very damaging.

Furthermore, it is easy to understand that a valid treatment for disease is only feasible if we implement a holistic approach as the one adopted in ayurveda. According to ayurveda, a holistic approach to heart can help in overcoming many heart problems.
