AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I am suffering from neuropathy and it is very trying and I need to know why and how I can get better and be completely free from it? Have tried many therapies including Acupuncture and now reflexology! It is better but there is constriction in the feet and pins and needles in the feet and sometimes hands also. Please please help me๐Ÿ™ ย  ย  ย 

Nerves require peace and rest to heal. You should call peace constantly in the system. Use a mantra that gives you the sense of peace like some Shanti mantras. Try to divert your mind towards something that can engage you in a happy way. Acupressure and gentle massage is likely to help more than acupuncture.  It is also important to sleep well and get your B12 levels checked up. There are some simple allopathic medicines as well which are very helpful. But that can be prescribed only after someone sees you. 

Most importantly do not lose courage. Pray, pray, pray with faith and the help will come.ย 

Affectionately,

Alok Da
