Reduced blood pressure
Meditation can reduce blood pressure by activating the relaxation response in our body. When we meditate, it can help calm our mind and reduce feelings of stress and anxiety. This, in turn, can lower our heart rate and blood pressure.
Additionally, meditation can help to improve blood circulation and reduce inflammation in the body, both of which can contribute to high blood pressure.
Over time, regular meditation practice can help to retrain our body’s response to stress and promote a sense of inner calm and balance that can help to keep our blood pressure in a healthy range.
