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.
The exercises in this 30-minute class include “Deep Wide-Legged Forward Bend”, “Cat Pose” and “Dynamic Cat”. In Cat Pose, pay attention to your stability and the position of your back. The class ends with time to rest lying down.
Discuss your chosen class with your doctor, including inversions and breathing techniques. Postpone the practice if your blood pressure rises significantly.
