The Science Behind the Solution
A Cardiologist's 4-Week Yoga Plan to Lower Blood Pressure Naturally
How Yoga Lowers Blood Pressure
When I first started recommending yoga to my patients 15 years ago, some colleagues were skeptical. Now, the science is undeniable. Here's what happens in your body:
1. Vagus Nerve Activation
The vagus nerve is your body's natural "brake pedal." When activated through deep breathing and gentle movement, it:
-
Slows heart rate
-
Reduces blood pressure
-
Promotes relaxation
-
Improves heart rate variability
2. Cortisol Reduction
Chronic stress elevates cortisol, which directly raises blood pressure. Yoga practice:
-
Lowers cortisol levels by up to 23%
-
Reduces inflammatory markers
-
Improves stress resilience
-
Enhances mood and sleep quality
3. Improved Endothelial Function
The endothelium is the inner lining of your blood vessels. Yoga helps by:
-
Increasing nitric oxide production (a natural vasodilator)
-
Improving blood vessel flexibility
-
Reducing arterial stiffness
-
Enhancing circulation
