Yoga for high blood pressure combines movement, attention to breathing and rest. It's important to choose suitable exercises and a level of effort together with your doctor.
In this 20-minute class, you'll try “Dynamic Stretch for the Front Line of the Body”, “Deep Wide-Legged Forward Bend”, and “Cat Pose”. In Cat Pose, stay steady and pay attention to the position of your back. You'll lie down to rest at the end of the class.
Discuss your chosen class with your doctor, including inversions and breathing techniques. Postpone the practice if your blood pressure rises significantly.
