Stress Reduction / Meditation
for High Blood Pressure
Regular mindfulness meditation or relaxation techniques including progressive muscle relaxation and deep breathing practised daily.
How it works
Chronic stress activates the sympathetic nervous system, raising cortisol and adrenaline. Meditation reduces sympathetic activation and lowers resting blood pressure.
What to watch for
Not a replacement for medication in moderate-to-severe hypertension. Best used as a complementary approach.
