Alternative treatment: High blood pressure

Three Steps to lower Blood pressure.

No matter what method you use to control high blood pressure there are times when it gets a little out of control, menopausal women in particular suffer fluctuating blood pressure that is difficult to manage and can creep up and up over time.

This is a simple do it yourself method using light meditation and repetition. As an Energy Therapist I have seen many clients use this method with great results, managing your blood pressure effectively allows you to focus on any other health issues you may be trying to deal with while reducing stress levels.

I prefer to refer to these methods as complimentary rather than alternative as they work well with medications, or in fact any other form of health management you have chosen. To start read through the meditation focusing on each step, then go through it again doing each step, if you would find it easier get someone to read it out to you while you do it.

Step. 1

Start by getting comfortable, initiate a breathing pattern of breathing in deeply through your nose and out through your mouth, breathing in then out until you feel relaxed. Eyes closed may help you to focus better to start with.

Step. 2
Imagine a red light at your feet, you may see this light, feel it or tell your self it is there. Allow this light to flow up your legs and continue up your body, do not direct it let it continue by itself up up up until it comes naturally to a stop. wait a little to be sure.

It does not matter if it goes out your head, stops at your face, throat or chest.

Step. 3

Now imagine a pale blue light above your head or above the red light, imagine this blue light by either feeling it, seeing it or just telling yourself it is there. Pull this blue light down, this time direct it, it will push the red light down, still breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth. Continue to pull the blue light down until it is level or just below your heart area or center of your chest. When you have achieved this take 5 more breaths, open your eyes and relax.

Thats it, do this 2-3 times a day for two weeks and then as you need to after that, each time you do this it will become quicker and easier. If you regularly get your blood pressure checked you will quickly start to notice the difference.

When you have mastered this you can easily sense when your blood pressure is rising, or when you get angry, upset, or fearful this meditation will help keep your blood pressure in the safe zone when done correctly.
