Help. Need a Breathing pratice for friend with high blood pressure

[Guest guest]

Sat Nam All.

 

Cancer struggling friend living with maddening ex husband who sends her racing

back to hospital whenever her blood pressure soars. She doesn't know KY except

vicariously through my devotion to it, and is open and receptive to whatever is

suggested. She's at end of her patience and energy.

 

I want to offer some breathing exercises as an alternative to drugs and the

added stress of midnight emergency room runs. Losing the maddening ex not an

option at this time for her.

 

Which ones would be best for a true novice??

 

Much light love thanks.

Sat Nam,

 

One hour of long deep breathing through the left nostril is the

traditional prescription. She could of course start with whatever

length of time she can. She would also have to commit to it long

enough to give it a fair trial, and let her doctor monitor her

progress.

Dear Jan,

 

The Basic Breath Series in Relax and Renew will cover all bases --

depression, anger, lack of energy, confusion. A shorter alternative is

alternate nostril breathing, which I know you know, but is also in Relax and

Renew. Left nostril breathing is specifically for relaxation and calming

down and good before going to bed.

 

When she is ready to do a full set, give her the anger set in Relax and

Renew. The short version is running in place, punching for 3-5 minutes.

 

Sat Nam,
