The Proven, Natural Way to Lower Your Blood Pressure
By Bruce C. Wilson, MD and Doc Childre
A Cardiologist’s Solution for Hypertension
Hypertension – high blood pressure – is a leading cause of heart attacks and strokes. It affects one in four Americans and is called the "silent killer" because many people have hypertension and don’t know it. They’re unaware of their higher risk for heart disease, stroke and other life-threatening problems. Many forms of cardiovascular disease are preventable, so it’s time to get to the underlying cause of the problem and make the necessary changes to reset the body toward health.
The Institute of HeartMath has researched techniques for managing stress and hypertension for 18 years and Dr. Bruce Wilson and Doc Childre’s new book offers proven ways to manage them. Recognizing stressful situations and taking a quick timeout to begin a simple HeartMath technique to shift your emotional attitude has a profound effect on the nervous system. It changes your physiology from a "fight-or-flight" stimulated state to one of calm and clarity. The result is lower stress-hormone production, blood pressure and heart rate. These are highly effective strategies for regulating blood pressure safely and effectively.
