Ashwagandha
Ashwagandha which known as Withania somnifera, is a adaptogen in Ayurvedic medicine. It is often referred to as “Indian ginseng,” as it enhances ojas (vital energy) and prana (life force), balancing vata and kapha doshas. Ashwagandha promotes vitality, reduces stress, and supports overall sattvic well-being.
