Hypertension...
Smart is believing only half of what you hear. Brilliant is knowing which half to believe.
Hypertension is often called, The silent killer, because it seems to have no visible symptoms. More than 43 million Americans have high blood pressure but less than one third of them have achieved targeted blood pressure levels. Even among the 23.4 million who take anti-hypertensive medications, only 42.9% of these patients actually get their blood pressure down to acceptable levels. This failure to adequately treat high blood pressure could cost $1 billion in excess health costs due to stroke, heart disease, diabetes, kidney failure and other illnesses, according to the study. Unfortunately, even those for whom the medications may help, those who take them are subject to a variety of unpleasant side effects, which can include dizziness, sore muscles, balance difficulties and migraine headaches.
Our Blood Pressure Management CD is based upon the following principles:
One major contributor to the condition is stress. When one experiences the stresses of daily life, three things occur. First, the heart beats faster, which of course, increases blood pressure. In addition, the blood vessels constrict, making it harder for the blood to flow. Also, the vascular muscles tense, which also restricts the blood's ability to flow. All these add up to increased blood pressure. This may be why meditation and a relaxed life-style helps to reduce blood pressure. Eastern mystics can actually control their blood pressure at will. This is likely to result from their daily practice of deep meditation, which relaxes and de-stresses the vascular system. headsound's Theta-Method CD supports deep meditative relaxation and freedom from stress.
In a study, conducted by J. David Forbes, MD, founder and director of Nashville Integrated Medicine and board certified founding diplomate of the American Board of Holistic Medicine, the connection between regular meditation and low blood pressure was revealed. An advocate of stress reduction as a necessary key to good health, Forbes suggests that all of us should participate in relaxation techniques, such as meditation. There are reams of studies showing the benefits of meditation. I particularly like to emphasize the importance of healthy emotional release. Stored up tension is what poisons our systems and leads to so much disease.
