🧘‍♂️ 45-Minute Yoga Flow to Lower Blood Pressure

This gentle yet effective yoga sequence is designed to reduce stress, regulate breathing, and improve circulation, all of which help naturally lower blood pressure. The focus is on slow, mindful movements, deep breathing, and restorative postures to calm the nervous system and promote heart health.

💡 Tip: Breathe deeply through the nose, hold each pose with zero tension, and move with intention.

Note: my #1 recommendation for anyone practicing yoga to lower blood pressure efficiently is to become comfortable with a longer practice time. That’s why I start this offering at 45 minutes.

I do plan to write shorter flows for 15 and 30-minute blood pressure flows as well in the future, but for now all flows focusing on blood pressure will start at 45 minutes based on my personal (professional) recommendations.
