Thank you for sharing this technique. Doing this morning, evening and, if needed, in between has lowered my blood pressure from 160/90 to 120/70 in less than two weeks
@@priscilladimas9064 yes it may my situation too, my MD had prescribed a beta blocker to help a anxiety & blood pressure but I felt too tired I am now trying to manage it with less salt intake, grounding & breathing exercises. I also do a lot of holistic supplements
This is hands down the best breathwork video series on this site. These techniques are so important, and not every person who teaches them explains each step of each technique. It’s like a treasure trove. Thank you so much.
This was great, I have been researching "how to reduce bp immediately" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Handadison Pressure Amalgamation - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my partner got cool success with it.
I admit I’m a bit of a skeptic when it comes to natural ways such as breathing to lower BP. However, here lately BP has been unstable even with medication and I’m running out of options to help control sudden spikes. I have been applying your breathing techniques in hopes it will help. I have anxiety attacks which raises BP even more and it’s hard to focus when I’m in panic mode. I certainly hope it works for me. I see many positive comments! Wish you all good health in the upcoming year! Thank you for sharing something helpful!
Great video! Thank you so much. Your breathing technique lowered my blood pressure to normal leves!! I will use this technique when I'm having my blood pressure taken at the doctor's office. 👍👍
I haven't gone to the BP Monitor yet, but after watching a number of videos that promote breathing for BP control, this is the one that relaxed me the most. Dani's gentle demeanor, combined with a very thorough teaching style won me over. I've just subscribed and will be checking out your website now. Thank you!
I have tried this technique and the timed method of six breaths per minute for fifteen minutes and I think, for me, this is more comfortable and less forced. Thanks for your help. Very well taught.
From 13.9/8.5 to 12.5/8 just in 5 minutes.I will apply this method twice a day and I believe that it will do wonders to me.Thank you my dear-you are an angel!
Thank you for this video. I have diligently practiced your video and it WORKS. I have reduced my blood pressure to normal ranges. I practice you breathing technique daily.

150/109 resting pulse 91. Googled deep breathing to lower BP. Chose yours. Ten inhales/exhales: 150/85 rp 90 Ten more even slower rotations: 144/95 (😔) rp 81 Twenty rotations: 150/90 rp 75 Twenty more rotations: 145/80 rp 70 BETTER. At work, didn't take bp medication this morning. Wanted to see what would happen. Not good. Determined to stop medication altogether. Three years of dizziness, continued weight gain, and really sore muscles. Your video REALLY calmed me down. Thank you.
Marcia you're doing great! Thank You so much for turning to your breath to lower your bp. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns, I'll offer whatever assistance I can to see you feel better and in control
My BP is similar to yours but I'm not on medication. I'm determined not to get on it but nothing is working. Can I ask why you want to get off medication? Are there any side effects?
Thank you, Danny, for this! I love your soothing voice. Do you have any videos or apps of you doing just the breathing practice for 5-10-15 minutes that we can do with you? I’d love that & be willing to pay you for it. Thank you!

Unbelievable. I was at 141/97 Did this for 5 min. Then 126/85 I was almost in normal range. I am going to keep this up (as well as diet and exercise). I struggled to breathe out slow enough to last 10 seconds, but I got better towards the end. I am going to keep practicing. Thanks for this video
@@sunita123321 my personal advice is you see a dr with numbers that high. Anytime numbers are over 180/120 that is considered a hypertensive crisis and should be controlled with a medication. Your awful young to have numbers that high. Please seek medical attention if your numbers are that high.
This helped me so well! Get much anxiety taking my blood pressure whether at home or at a doctor’s office. It’s usually sky high at the dr. I have an upcoming appointment on Monday. Any suggestions to have a somewhat normal reading? Should I breathe before I go in? Should I do this as my bp is being taken? Thank u
Thank You for breathing along Kristy! You'll want to practice this technique daily to affect your readings in the long term, but you can also do it right before as well as during the reading to notice/measure the difference.
Hi Francesca! We also have a video you can checkout on How to Breathe for Anxiety here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-szsVgHNirfY.html Let me know how it helps
Thank you so much. By pb was 153 over 90 5 minutes ago and now it's normal. I have extreme anxiety and heart disease so this is very important and helpful. God bless you
Thanks so much for breathing with me, hope it continues to help. I just made a video for Breathing Technique for Panic Attacks, see if that might help too.
Nice. I don't do that Ujai thing but only belly and diagramh slow inhale. No chest breathing becasue t causes me anxiety thougts and sadness. I love that slowness.
thank you for this video. I feel the love and healing 😌 I was a bit of stressed out today and my blood pressure was 119/91 😫 and did this breathing technique for 7 min or so and took my blood pressure again and it’s 106/78! 🥰 Thank you so much! I just subscribed and checking out your website as well. 🌺
Cool. I'm fed up with my blood pressure tablets they make my skin thin im forever bruising... I'm gonna do this every day.. By the way your beautiful. Cheers my dear.
I am in Jordan and UNBELIEVABLE this sounds I didn't realise how much I panic normal breathing I did reading was 158/86... today after watching video and using technique 134/79 👍🙏
@@BreathGuidance Just to let you know after listening and taking your advice l am now 122/80 and I am 50 .. i have informed many to watch your video and many friends telling me there pressure has come down immensely. 👍Thank you
This lowers pulse? What if your blood pressure is on the high side, but pulse is already very low, (my resting pulse runs around 44 - 46 beats per minute) like it can be for people who exercise a lot?
@@Muck-qy2oo Yes, when the diastolic goes up you don't have the breath out right when you are relaxed sitting, your breath out should happen with your belly. Just very slowly contract your belly you can put a finger under your nose you will feel the warm air escaping. You learn that in yoga. Breath out though the nose but NOT with the nose. If you do it right you will have a big effect. I get from 120/70 down to 85/40 mediating for a couple of minutes. If you hear anything like in this video you are breathing too fast.
Surfing the internet about breathwork I've noticed a few people commenting that it didn't have a lasting effect in helping them decrease their anxiety, but I think some people don't stick with it long enough, and just gave up.
Richard awesome observation. There's a lot of variables that goes into the breathing techniques and the person using them for particular affects. One type of breathing technique will help reduce one person's anxiety while that same breathing techniques may exaggerate someone else's anxiety. The technique itself plus the duration, pressure, volume and speed along with the practitioner's conditions all go into account. Just like prescriptions may need a higher dose or more often to take, the breathing techniques can be customized to the practitioner, and sometimes it totally is just that they may need to increase the duration. Thanks for breathing along!

Thanks for breathing along! No worries if you're finding short duration, keep practicing, as a lot of extending your respiratory rate has to do with your breathing muscles and neurological control, which can take time to train and improve. Try to practice just lengthening your inhale in a devoted practice for a while.
Depois do consumir alimentos que contenham certa quantidade de sal ou de sódio, minha pressão sanguínea sempre aumenta. Será que esta prática pode normalizar a pressão, mesmo enquanto o sódio não for eliminado? Numa emergência, faço uso de vasodilatadores naturais, como alho cru.
Hi Miguel, looks like you said systolic twice so I'm not sure which you mean but systole is when the heart contracts to pump blood out while diastole is when the heart relaxes after contraction.
My BP went from 162/97 (yeah I know) to 132/90 and pulse from 81 to 78 doing this. Looks like it's going to become part of my daily practice! Couple of questions. I used a stopwatch to time the out breaths and the 5 minutes. I was breathing out for 20 seconds. Is that too slow? It felt comfortable. I noticed my body became warm all through as I came to the end of the 5 minutes. Is that an expected outcome please?
Rachael this is so great! The longer the exhalation - the better, so 20 seconds is really good! Everyone feels a bit different from the techniques and generally many people will feel more of a "cooling" sensation but the warming is a natural feeling too. You're body will send signals to you if its unhappy with what you're doing and it sounds like you're really helping it out. Awesome job and keep it up!
OMG!!!...this video I just taught me that I am an extremely shallow breather!!..I've been robbing my body of much needed oxygen...and have high blood pressure..from now on..every breath will be slow and full!!
Hi Hasudungan! I've got a lot of them in my Virtual Membership, you can find them in the Daily Classes section here: www.breathercommunity.com/ Also there are a few on this channel too :)
Awesome question Monika, the breath hold on the inhale will drop the heart rate a bit but it's important to only retain the breath for as long as you are completely comfortable. The moment you feel discomfort, anxious or restless, resume with the technique exhale. Let me know how it works for you!
Wow! We can learn some things from ancient India and ancient China. I guess over many thousands of years, they figured out some great health techniques.
Derwin, absolutely though it may be tricky to keep the breathing technique and measure your blood pressure simultaneously, so you can always measure before you do the breathing technique and right afterwards. Thanks for being a breather!
Hello. I was wondering if these breathing techniques can maintain a normal/lower blood pressure throughout the day or does it only lower it right after the breathing technique? Thank you.
That is kind of the key question. Because its not really about any one blood pressure reading at any given minute. Its what you BP is like over the course of months and years. If it lower its for 10 minutes, but then goes right back up. It isn't really a long term solution. Don't mean to be negative. Its still a great video and great trick. But it needs to be sustained at lower numbers long term.
This didn't help me, but I'm glad for those it does. As a society, any decent person without hypertension or hypotension, is a good thing. Im open to other ideas to lower BP from any commenters. I've tried ashwagandha, coq10, red yeast rice, none of those help. Garlic, fish oil are 2 I may try. Niacin improved my cholesterol levels, but hasn't stabilized my BP. I take it daily. Medication that failed are clonidine, spironolactone. I've had mixed results with Lisinopril.
I've had good results with exercise (1 hour daily, hr 130bpm), beetroot juice (just 1 medium beet with water in nutrabullet) and of course breathing daily (10min morning and evening). Have you now found something that has worked for you? Anxiety brought my bp up about a year ago (pandemic) .. used to be 100/70 but that went up to 140s/70s during anxious times. 😞
hello, breathing in though the nose slowly is not difficult, but I find it hard to a long breathout though the nose!! long breath out through the mouth is easy for me, is that okay? if not how do I master the nose exhale method please?
Hi Satish, the long exhale from the mouth with pursed lips is totally fine. To improve your extension of your nasal exhale, you want to work on strengthening your vocal diaphragm and vocal chords, and refining your Ujjayi breathing technique. We do a lot of work on this in Breath Technique Training if you want to join, would love to have you there! It's all online and you can learn more here: BreathGuidance.com/breath-technique-training
I have a dot physical coming up soon and i have high blood pressure.i take meds for it but once i get to the doctors office my blood pressure goes sky high for some reason..gonna try this....👍
Thank you for a helpful video, a quick question, so the inhale has to be Ujjayi however the exhale is normal through the nose or pursed lips? If so, can i ask howcome? Just wondering why the inhale and exhale is not ujjayi. Thank you.
Hi Scarlet, you can definitely use ujjayi on the nasal inhale, and on the nasal exhale, as it will help control the flow of air in better than without it. The exhale is done through the lips so you can use the benefit of the mouth and tongue muscles to further extend the length of the exhale (you can do this with your nose and ujjayi as well, but most people will be able to exhale for longer using the pursed lips as they may not have strong vocal chord/vocal diaphragm control.) Try to time it, see how long you can stretch your ujjayi exhale and how long you can stretch your pursed lips exhale. Do whichever is longer. Thanks for breathing along!
