Subject: Yoga for BP


Hi all,

I am BP patient.I am taking some medicines for that.Very soon I will come back to normal.Studies have shown that most of the asanas are not recommended for BP patients.

My question is as soon as I am normal, shall I start doing yoga or how long should I wait.

Regards

Viswa

Hi all,

I am BP patient.I am taking some medicines for that.Very soon I will come back to normal.
===> This is totally FALSE. One NEVER comes to normal due taking medications. You only feel normal as a reaction to Medicine. Actually, you go away from normal. And, this is exactly what is shown by Scientific Studies, without a single exception.


Studies have shown that most of the asanas are not recommended for BP patients.

===> This is totally FALSE. Actually, studies have shown that many asanas are recommended especially for a BP Patient. For example, Shavasana. More should be learnt from a teacher directly and not via internet.

My question is as soon as I am normal, shall I start doing yoga or how long should I wait.

===> You should not wait at all if you wish to take up Yoga Practice. Yoga Practice does help BP without any doubt. But, Yoga Practice is NOT meant for BP. Therefore, it has nothing to do with BP in principles. Therefore, if you wish to take Yoga Practice, you should start before becoming normal. And, if you wish to do Yoga Practice for BP, you should start before becoming normal annd should learn it properly and only do proper Yoga Practice, and not any Yoga Practice.

===> I wish you best luck.


Regards

Viswa

Shall we presume you have HIGH blood pressure?

Yoga is one way to deal with blood pressure issues, in conjunction with other changes, thus the term holistic. Meds are allopathic and they force the control upon you, as Neel so appropriately states. Though this does not mean "don't take your meds".

Inversions in asana have some varied effects relative to bp. The last I heard, blood pressure was shown to be higher in the poses in question but lower after the student comes down. I have not followed up on this in terms of research.

If you choose to deal with BP via yoga and a holistic approach, your teacher may suggest that you ween off the meds at some point. However I cannot think of a reason to keep yourself from yoga now if it is yoga you seek. As long as you are working with a highly trained teacher, of course.

Regular Practice of AV and KB does NOT always help Hypertension. It is not same for all people. One has to learn it properly and see how that is helping. There is NO fixed time per day that can be recommended. That also varies with each person. This can best be learnt personally from an experienced teacher.

There are three basic principles in the practice of yoga that works all around for the benefit of the individual. In addition to lowering bad cholesterol, yoga is also known to treat migraines and help in the reduction of mental stress and tension. Regular practice of Kapalbhati Pranayama is the best form of Pranayama for bringing down cholesterol. Kapalbhati Pranayama aids in increasing the level of oxygen in the blood and improves the efficiency of the oxygen in the body.

During any exercise the strain on muscles increases, the requirement for blood and oxygen increases but in Yoga the requirement goes down as there are no strains and every muscle is relaxed, the requirement for blood and oxygen goes down. Yoga helps in stabilizing blood pressure.
