- Get the Highest Quality Electrolyte euvexia.com . 7 Truths To Lower Blood Pressure Naturally With Breathing Exercises A Holistic Doctor Explains. Blood pressure, like most modern disease, is thought to have no cure, but once you understand why high blood pressure happens, you can start learning how to lower high blood pressure . High blood pressure, or hypertension, is not something that happens to you. It is something that your body creates with every heart beat, and if you understand why it is created, you can start taking measures to reduce it.
While doctors usually treat the symptom of high blood pressure rather than the underlying problem, Doctor Ekberg will explain how to address the root cause for a long lasting solution.
The natural methods you will learn are equally powerful to prevent high blood pressure from developing as they are to reduce high blood pressure naturally. Breath and breathing patterns are closely linked to the way that the autonomic nervous system regulates blood pressure, which is why relaxing breaths can help control blood pressure. Dr. Ekberg will also talk about how the benefits can be even more far reaching and help reduce a wide range of health problems.

While listening to this video, I started doing the breathing and continued doing it for an hour plus. From 160/97, brought it down to 129/80. God bless you doc, for sharing this technique 🙏
Wow! That's AWESOME!!!
...and what allopathic doctor...will ever teach this??
Thank you Doctor for your nice presentation -
I want to ask a question., how do you breath out is it in the.mouth, Cause some doctors say you breath in and breath out in mouth slowly.
I’ve done this breathing exercise for 5 month I’m off the blood pressure meds. and feel fantastic wish I would have known all this a long time ago but I know it now. Thanks Dr. Exberg.
Thank you for sharing. I have just been put on blood pressure meds, but want to find ways to get off them. Your story gives me hope! I am also going to take magnesium dàily.
Sure ???
How many times you did these exercises in one day and how many reparations??
@@MuhammadUsman-zq6xy I started out doing the breathing for 5 minutes couple times a day then longer 10 to 20 minutes now I breathe like that without even thinking. Just like the doctor says.
Hi Tom, did you reduce your meds after the breathing exercise or before?. Or did you stop meds then did breathing exercises?
@@wendyjones3593 I’ll tell you i started my low carb & sugar journey in March 2021 in May I quit both statins blood pressure and cholesterol meds that’s when I started the breathing I believe it was the combination eating whole food was huge for me.
I actually did this breath exercise and took blood pressure reading many times. The BP points dropped more than 20 points.
This is amazing, thank you doc. You are a true Doc Champion!
I wouldn't be lulled into a false sense of security, what matters is the reading over time not for a few minutes after some breathing exercises
Sure ????
How many times you did exercises in one day
@@Tedmason897 it’s supposed to be continued for long term benefits as he said. It’s not a one time thing cure all. It’s a learned exorcise to do often and every day to keep numbers staying lower. Just like meds you need to take every single day with serious side effects, You can do simple breathing techniques to help every day with no side effects.
Did it go back high again when you stopped..or does it stay down all day?
This way of breathing might drop blood pressure for a while; but for all or most of the time?? Or just at that time when doing it. Or shortly after doing it?
This exact breathing technique, worked tremendously for me when having panic attacks. Every time. I got so good at calming myself that I could feel when one was about to happen, I would do my breathing and keep the attack from becoming a full blown panic. I have been panic attack free for 11 years. Which was a true blessing. I used to get them 3 to 4 times a day. The meds the Dr's gave me messed me up. Got off the meds and learned this technique through research of my own. So glad I did.
That's anxiety attacks panic you can't control it, maybe breathing into a plastic bag..
Thank God. Thanks for this
I rarely, rarely, rarely comment on videos, but I must after processing the information shared in this deeply profound exercise. After only a few minutes of proper breathing as directed, I felt a sense of hope, calmness and happiness flow back into my being which I haven't felt in many, many years. I actually began to cry (which I haven't done either in many years) ... ooh what a release I felt; and fortunately, I continue to feel both focused on more positive thoughts and generally peaceful. Thank you, Dr. Sten Ekberg, for teaching me what quite possibly is the most important lesson in life: B-R-E-A-T-H-E ... Inspiration 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and Expiration 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 5 and repeat ...

I started watching you a little over a month ago. I went for a dr appt for the first time in 20 years. I am 67. My blood pressure was 152/95 in his office. They sent me home with a bp machine to test morning and afternoon. I started the breathing in the 5 minutes b4 my tests. This truly works. My dr is even amazed. My last week avg was 111/74. I have also lost 17 lbs in the last month. Thanks so much.
Lose weight, cut out salt/sugar. exercise lightly most every day
I watched the entire video, was doing the breathing exercise and had a cuff taking my blood pressure. By the end I went from 165/90 to 136/79 not perfect but better in just 20mins. Thank you Dr. Ekberg!!
I'm a skeptic by nature so whenever I see someone meditating I always thought of it as being nonsense because it was always explained in a nonsensical way to me. This video explains why meditating and similar things are so effective in a scientific way. Thank you so much for that, my 6 month journey starts now.
Thank you SincereDoper. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. I spend so much time on it because when we get "the why" and the mechanism we become empowered for life . Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile. 😄
Thanks
So eight months after your six month journey was to start. What were the results - measured or perceived
@@drekberg It also really helped me to relax my nervous system! Should I inhale and exhale thru the nose both times and is it better standing up or lying down please? I want to make sure that I get it right as I do not want to be on my BP meds! Thank U for explaining it so well!
There are many different types of meditate, that's one reason why it seems nonsensical. People have expectations, and the reality doesn't always match their expectations. I practice TM which was very popular in 1960's-1980's. Jerry Seinfeld and Ray Dalio are among many people who have practicised TM for forty years. There is a lot of research published on it's benefits. The easiest way to describe it is you use a mantra (a subvocalized sound), to reach a state of nothingness. As you focus on the sound, it gradually fades away until there is no sound, no awareness, no thoughts and eventually you awaken feeling refreshed. It's like putting away all worldly concerns and having a mental vacation for twenty minutes twice a day. The only way to really understand it, is to find an expert to teach it to you, and experience it yourself.
This was the most informative 24mins I’ve spent in years. Thank you Doctor. 🙏🏾
Thank you Ibrahim Moizoos. I really appreciate your feedback. 😄
Great information I'll see how this helps my BP

High blood pressure provokes fear because it is associated with heart disease and stroke. Dr. Ekberg's breathing technique takes the fear out of testing my blood pressure because if my numbers are high I can perform the breathing technique and bring my pressure down. Thank you Dr. Ekberg.
I'm not too worried about my HBP. All 4 of my grandparents had HBP - my maternal grandmother had VERY high BP and lived to 107. She refused any BP medication and told her doctor that that high reading was normal for her. My grandfather's was always in the 160/90 - 175/100 range and he lived to 99 and only died because he slipped on ice on a sidewalk and hit his head. My paternal grandparents were on and off BP medications since I was a baby and they both lived well into their late 80's and neither died of anything to do with heart issues or strokes (grandpa from lung cancer from smoking 2 packs a day for 75 years). I sometimes wonder if HBP is even an "illness" and not just a normal body response to food, stress, activity, etc.,.
How long did your maternal grandmother have high blood pressure and how high was it if she didn’t take medication for it? So did she not have any symptoms? And did your grandfather also not take meds?
I completely agree with you 100%
Well this makes me feel a little better I guess I have a chance lol
Great to hear but what has changed is our dietary habits and sedentary life styles. I am sure the last gen was moving their limbs far more than us. Now we move our thumbs more than our limbs :)
@@alfa_romeo0701 yes that’s why if you’re otherwise a healthy person who exercises and eats well at least most of the time lol you’ll have better odds of being able to live with high bp.

I lowered my blood pressure and blood sugar by losing weight. I’m no longer on BP meds or insulin. Diet, exorcise and losing weight are key.
Thank you Chug-A-Lug Doug for sharing your story. That is great. I am so happy you have had such great results. Keep it up!
I lost about 85lbs & I still have hypertension. It was perfect for a couple months however, it's creeped back up now. I eat mostly fruits & vegetables & walk at least 30 mins a day. In 2010 a cardiologist told me I need to lose 100lbs, I was 303lbs, now I'm 187lbs. I think it might be stress.
Chug-A-Lug Doug... that's awesome! But, many people who are and always have been healthy and athletic their entire lives, like my husband, still somehow get high blood pressure. My husband, who's 65, is the picture of health, inside and out. Yet, last year, at 64, he was diagnosed with high BP and put on meds for it. He's never taken a drug in his entire life, including aspirin. He's upset about it. But, as a black man, he isn't going to ignore his high blood pressure. So... what to do? we have no idea... he literally cannot eat more healthy or do more exercise. We're stumped, and he will remain on his meds until we find a solution.
forcommenting our metabolism slows down as we age. Most people diagnosed with T2 diabetes are between the ages of 45 to 60 for that reason. Our metabolism begins to slow around 40 to 45 and then again between 60 and 65. If your husband is not overweight, exorcises and eats healthy , drugs are the only answer. You may want to look into the benefits of autophagy though.
@@chug-a-lugdoug4638 Yes, exactly. Oh yes, he even did keto with me, just hoping it would change the BP. He's lowish carb anyway, so it didn't do much for him. autophagy has done wonders for me, though, as I have a few pounds to lose, but, luckily I have no health issues other than hypothyroidism (which has been under control for many years). So, he's kind of bummed he has to take these drugs. Hey thanks for responding ;-).
Wow from 153/93 to 140/88 -
I Was doing good until my husband walked in now it’s back up
Stop! HaHaHa! 🫣
Once again Dr Sten you touched a verve for me . As someone who suffers from high blood pressure and poor health going in to my retirement years , I feel grateful for watching your videos . To have a Mentor like you is very overwhelming . And for you to share this information freely is an extremely unselfish thing to do for everyone how follows you . I can’t tell how grateful I am that I have you in my life .

I’m a runner! So when I run about a hour the next day my blood pressure is around 98/ 64.
When I go to a doctors it can be as high as 180/90. For me it’s like going to a execution!
It will take about three days to go back to normal.
Remember that at your next doctors visit. Do your blood pressure at home!
Thanks for sharing. My bp always spikes at doctor appts.
@@sallyr.6891 The nice thing about doing your blood pressure at home is you can notice what raises and lowers your blood pressure.
For me after a two hour run my blood pressure drops to as low as 96/ 65 the next morning. Heart rate will be up to 60 if I ran too hard.
That exactly same to me
At home always under 120/80
But
See Dr .. BP up to 160/98
May that Related with anxiety / panic attacks ?
❤
That's whitecoat syndrome. That's akwaymy case, but when I go home, it's normal
God bless you sir! I have been dealing with a lot of stress and not feeling well for the last month. I was sent to the ER by my PA. Reluctantly, I started Norvasc 10 and have been feeling worse. Last 2 days, I woke up with my heart pounding and squeezing, my bp 212/116 went back to ER. Woke up last night again same issues and came across your video. My BP came down and but up and down today. I stopped the Norvasc, took beetroot powder, potassium and deep breathing. I just took my BP now is 130/82
I have been practicing Pranayama (breathing exercise) as part of my daily yoga practice. This is the most succinct and best explanation of the mechanism by which controlled breathing benefits your overall health thatI have ever seen. Kudos to you Dr. Ekberg. You are truly amazing.
I am a yoga therapist. I can only say, your explanation is so practical and just excellent !
All these “quick” fixes and “tricks” to fool you. Reality… your blood pressure never stays down after you apply these tricks. It’s always back up there where it naturally was. If you want to drop your BP..it takes lifestyle changes. Something most people don’t want to do until forced to. Like stroke survival. Or kidney failure. These quacks should be promoting how to change your lifestyles not filling your heads with quick easy temporary cures.
Thank you Dr. Ekbert for continuing to produce videos for the public so we can empower ourselves and become more educated about our health on a holistic level! Keep up the good work, posting in April 2021
I needed to hear this after losing 2 members of my family within 10 days of each other. The emotional stress was very rough on the body. This explanation has been a literal life-saver. I’ve shared this video with members of my family who were also stuck in a grief induced negative emotional cycle. Thank you, Dr. E. 💕
Stay strong.
HUSH so sorry 🙏
So sorry - lost a dear friend suddenly this year and it has been so hard on me. Prayers you will have peace.
My condolences but i think people die from their meds.. not the illness.. regardless.. prayers to you of coarse..
I'm so happy I found your channel! You have explained things in such detail and I have a much better understanding of how my body/breathing works. This is literally a life changer! Thank you.
Thank you Dr. Sten Ekberg! I just found your video by accident but when I watched your video about the principles of breathing process to lower the blood pressure that makes an individual healthy, it's really amazing because I did it while you were giving your lecture/ explanation. Honestly, when I followed your breathing technique I gained the benefit of improvement in breathing and which becomes part of my routine now. God bless you. 🙏
Thank you for the video. I was performing the breathing exercise while watching this and it indeed helped. I have hypertension and I do not want to rely on pharmaceutical drugs to keep my blood pressure normalized. I exercise regularly, watch what I eat and drink, so i believe alot of my hypertension/high blood pressure is a result of "imaginative stress" which has compacted my overall health. These videos that a come across really does help and I thank you for showing people like myself how to have overall holistic health.
I just found your channel and I thank you so much for the excellent information about blood pressure. I was diagnose with high blood pressure and given medication, but I stopped taking it because my blood pressure is emotional. After watching your video I agree with you 100%. This is the best video I have ever seen. The fact you are also holistic means so much to me. I grew up in South America and my parents raised me earring organic food and home remedies, the natural way. Congratulations and please keep educating people. It is not about drugs. Drugs take care of the problem superficially but not the root. The detailed information how blood pressure works and how we can control it is amazing. I control mine with tea and eating garlic and lemon. Your daily meals with fruits and vegetables can help too. Thanks again. Blessings and take care, be safe. New subscriber!
Dr. Ekberg, thank you for posting this video. I was just prescribe blood pressure medication that I really didn’t want to take, but had to because of my high blood pressure. I started practicing your breathing method during the video and found myself relaxing immediately. I will continue to practice your breathing method and am positive that it will lower my BP. HOPEFULLY I won’t need the medication soon! I just shared this video to several people that will benefit from watching it! Thank you thank you thank you!!!
You are the best Dr. Ekberg. I was just diagnosed with high blood pressure and placed on permanent medication. This came at the right time. You are a life saver. ❤️
Dear Dr.Eckberg!!! I just love the way you put difficult concepts into so nice and simple metaphors! Gratitude! Love from Brazil!
What an incredible video! I am a vocal coach and do a lot of breath work for myself, as well as with my clients. It’s incredible to fully understand how it benefits our health. i feel like a whole new horizon opens up from watching this. May you be abundantly blessed ! I’d love to hear your take on those moments when we hold the breath? Thanks a million!
I tried this right away and gotten immediately results. I feel a lot better when I do your breathing exercise. I often don't notice that I breathe shallow. Thank you.
No Doctors explain so details and easy to understand like you Doctor. I am lucky to find this video.
The most beautiful presentation I've seen yet! Saw for the first time and got glued to the end.
Thanks so much Doc. I just subscribed ❤️
Works great! I'm getting better and better at it. Even used it when I was quite nervous during medical procedure this week. I felt much calmer. I learn so much from you, Dr Ekberg, and support your channel because you have made a great difference in my health.
Thank you so much Dr. Your video has saved me on a day I thought I should press the 111. My pressure was 279/78. After the breathing exercise it went down to 136/68. This exercise works!
Was this a typo? Did you mean 179/78?
🙏🙏🙏👍👍🇨🇦💕 happy for you

sys 279 major cause for the grave yard i dont think u can live long with 279 sys thats hard to believe, sorry
God is a God miracles vato believe
Once again you speak the gospel Dr. STEN. I had already lost weight slowly, 153 kg to 126 at 6 feet tall. Started taking some free BP tests at local pharmacies, I had only had it done every 5 years for my driver’s license & occasionally at a store. But depression, more weight gain, COVID and ignorance meant I should have been on meds last few years. In less than a month, more consistency and pace with my walks, combined with better breathing & frequent testing…..gone from highs of 153/105, to 117/87. Even if both were extremes, have made amazing progress, and most importantly……NO NEED FOR MEDICATIONS! God bless from 🇨🇦
I am under stress constantly and seem to loose it every day.I am my husband's care giver for the last 6 years, he has many physical and mental problems. Since I can not afford to have someone come in and we have no family a round, O just don't get any time off. It is starting to show in so many ways. Listening to you has helped me what to do, how to eat better, this breathing I have never heard of doing. I am starting today working on this, hopefully it will calm me down. Thank you again for all your wonderful, informative lectures.
realized I am in a habit of holding my breath without knowing it.. watching this video made me aware of that ! feel less stressed immediately. powerful stuff Dr. Ekberg TY!
You are the best of any health practitioners that I have watched on YT over the years. Your presentations are spoken clearly and are easy to follow. I find your charts are always helpful.
Thank you for this very awesome video! I will do it for six months, then, for always! Thank you, gracias, merci beaucoup!
I cannot believe how effective this is. I have managed my BP from an average of 140-150/ 90-100 down to 120-130/75-85 in the space of a few weeks. So easy to do and reduces the requirement of BP medication. Very impressed.
Sir can you share your BP history how long it was
How
my blood pressure and pulse lowered after i started to do weight training only 20 minutes a day using mid size weights not to heavy my blood pressure lowered loads my doctor was impressed he said “what ever you doing keep it up.”
Thanks
DO you try to keep you heart rate in certain zone while weight lifting. I am trying to figure what should be the intensity of the workout?
Dr Ekberg, your presentations are without question the best on the web. It is evident that there is a tremendous amount of effort and research; and with your graphs and notations you reinforce the old saying' that 'a picture is worth a thousand words'. Thank you, we need more like you.
I have high blood pressure or many years and I am always stressed about going to Dr for check ups. I came across your video last night so tried out the deep breathing, and I really could not believe my readings I took another reading just to make sure it was right. I expect it to go up again after a while, but I will continue with breathing expertises in the hope I may be able to get off the medication altogether. Thank you so much for all the information you have shared I am truly grateful.
I’ve started this and definitely notice the positive relaxation benefits. Note to myself : remember to make this regular practice and observe the positive changes.☺️
24 minutes of packed session of wisdom shared..truly appreciate your efforts to educate us...keep doing the good work
Thank you ANIL NAIR. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad you liked it. The greatest compliment you can give is to help us help more people by sharing the videos.
Tack Sten! För att du är en mycket positiv kraft, du ger glädje och näring i mitt liv haha :) inte bara detta inlägg utan samtliga. uppskattar alla de videor jag sett. du är noggrann med detaljer och förklaringar tydligt meningen. det hjälper också mina närmaste. hoppas du tjänar mycket pengar på detta. tack igen Sten
The presentation in this video is amazing and unbelievable. I found this video just not limited to how to control your BP but it way beyond that. The more you think about it the more you know how human body and nervous system works and how you can manage yourself for good. Thank you
I have suffered from heart palpitations for years (on and off) With the current lockdown I have been getting stressed out as I live alone. I have been panicking when I feel the palpitations, and then check my blood pressure, and of course it is high. It can start off at something like 150/100.....and will lower as I relax. Following this video, I did the breathing and within minutes my blood pressure was 128/86! Much much better (I'm 56 this year for reference, and am overweight) I have a treadmill on the way, and with these breathing exercises, my blood pressure should stay low! I just wish I didn't get palpitations (for me they are always the tickly, feel like a skipped beat) but I'm a worrier. I have my own blood pressure monitor as I've talked to my G.P before about my anxiety attacks and palpitations, and he gets me to keep a record of my B.P every so often. I can usually get it to lower by relaxing, but nowhere near as quick or as effective as following this video! The fact I can relax and get my B.P to normal levels makes me feel so much better as I know m B.P isn't always high. It's me stressing out! :/
I feel you. But my condition is when I see my doctor I will get nervous and palpitate like I crazy and of course that will elevate my blood pressure. But when I am relaxing at home my BP can goes as low as 119/79. My heart rate is consistently between 90-100+. It can goes up to 140 sometimes and it can goes as low as 86 when I am relaxing. It is both terrifying and comforting to know that. I am very conscious about my health and I am not even fifty I am 26yo. I guess anxiety and BP disease really related to each other.
Wow Steve! You sound so much like me. Your symptoms you describe are exactly as mine are. It really is an awful feeling when those palpitations start.
@@mikebledig7208 I know right :( Thankfully I have been doing the deep breathing and trying to focus on other things, and I have managed to ease them off considerably. I'm tempted to go speak to my doctor again, but I know the stress of the current situation re: lockdown etc isn't doing me any favours.
@@mancbiker17 I'm going to try this 2x a day. And I have no problem committing to it if it'll help me stay off pills ... and get it in control. Sadly the USA has us in fight or flight all day everyday now.
Try increasing your magnesium and potassium. Both can be found in leafy greens and nuts/seeds.
I feel I MUST comment here. I'm due to have joint replacement surgery. I have hypertension. 185 over 125. My doctor has me on 3 different BP meds to get it under control. I started on them last week. Went for a check up yesterday; 170 over 100. I sat here just now and breathed deeply, 1 cycle every 10 secs for 5 mins; took my BP and it is 146 over 91. Not earth-shattering but not too shabby either!
This kind of info should be taught in high school. Same as how to make choices without having negative consequences that ruin your life. Thank you for explaining this . I have been in emotional stress a lot of my life. And the world is hard to live in if you don’t know how to help yourself.
Dr.Eckberg… been on keto/ IF for 6 months with great results! The missing link in my health recovery is my breathing…I had to listen to your video more than once to get all the benefits…. I will do this starting today, for 6 months and let you know how well it is working for me…as always you are exceptionally knowledgeable and kind, I thank you for changing my life by improving my health!😊

Please give me suggestion on my query i asked in this video's comment section
Hi Dr Ekberg! Is Intermittent Fasting and a Ketogenic Diet okay for my wife who has IGA Nephropathy / Berger's Disease and has had a Hysterectomy? Thanks!
Thank you so much for Dr for a good explanation my god bless you
Greater man great doctor
Thank you, doctor. I am so glad. Started the breathing in and out. Everything is working together for my good. God bless you.
Thank you so much, I was in a state of high stress looking for ways to lower my blood pressure. The way you explain it is superb.
I've watched so many health videos and this one in particular is the very best I've seen.
Just subscribed.
This is amazing I always had stress on my shoulders and do progression relaxation but it didn’t take all day. This has worked thank you👍
Dear Dr. Ekberg, while watching your 3 programs on lowering blood pressure, mine dropped from 151/86 to 121/80. Well, nobody’s perfect. But not bad for my first try. Will definitely keep at it. Hope it’s not my kidneys. They were at 49 and I got them up to 61. My A1C is 4.9. My doctor took me off blood pressure meds 2 years ago because they made me faint. I’ve lost another 20 lbs since then. My blood work is perfect. This 151/86 through me for a loop! I was just sitting and relaxing 😌 I my whole life, it’s never been so high. 🙏🤗👏🏻💝🤸🏼
Thank you all the wonderful work you do for us, it’s invaluable!
This is an excellent exercise during the day at work, at night time relaxing before bed, or just driving in the car. It's very calming, great video.
I had a BP of 222 a week ago and have been on a 10 day water fast since then but my BP didn't want to come down below 170 and then I watched this video and did your breathing technique for about 5 minutes and took my BP and it was 152-79. I am a believer,, thanks so much
Thank you Richard Blackstone for sharing your story. That is great. I am thrilled that you have seen such great results. Keep it up! It could take many months to really change the momentum and stabilize the improvements 😄
@@drekberg Thanks so much for your reply Sten,,, and you are right,, I am still having to practice my breathing because my BP is not just going down to 125 and staying there,, I still have higher BP than the so called 'norm' but I am very healthy and I know that high BP is NOT a disease so I refuse to take pharma for it. Thanks again for helping so many people. Live in love, Richard
@@blackstonerich I just watched this video, and it came so timely after I went to the doc and being told I got high bp, after not visiting any doc for more than 30 years. I'm very fit and exercise every day, and have whole foods and with a very healthy lifestyle. This doc prescribed a hp medication and told me I need to do it for life. I asked if I can do any natural way to reduce it. She said NO. I have still not got any meds yet, and am not doing it. I want to try this breathing exercise. How is your bp now?
@@drekbergyes doc... I believe that's neuroplasticity lol great teacher
Thank you Dr E! I'm going to start incorporating this breathing practice into my morning meditation.
Just by watching and enjoying your videos and listening your recommendations,I feel a stress reduction.I have studied psycho-organic analytic therapy,but I was not applying the breathing technics we learned,thank you for reminding me...Your voice tone is also very relaxing .I really enjoy the way you teach us body functions etc.Thank you again!
Dr. Ekberg, where have you been my whole life? THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
This is one of the best vdo on blood pressure I've gone through.... Such a deep explanation...
I was having really bad heart palpitations figured my bp was up. Sure enuff went to the dentist and it was 150/100. Decided to try some lifestyle changes and natural things to help bring it down because I don't take prescription drugs except emergency inhaler for asthma attacks and prilosec for GERD. I stopped all alcohol cut back to 1 coffee rather than 2 or 3 I stopped adding salt to my food and started taking ceyanne pepper in my tea and applesauce started this breathing exercise cut back from a pack or more of cigarettes to just 4 to 5 a day and walking 20 mins a day whether permitting and I have been doing intermittent fasting and in just 1 week my bp went from 150/100 to 130/80 which is alot better. I am still working on giving up the 4 or 5 cigs a day but just those few changes have helped and I feel better. God bless ❤
Thanks Dr. Ekberg! You are a great teacher and I am truly changing my lifestyle with your wisdom and knowledge. I am sharing with family and friends.
Very good talk..im 70 and brought my blood pressure down quite a lot over 20 years by physical gym workouts and daily cycling..will adopt the techniques here too..thanks
I feel anxious and stressed when I have a lot of things to look after . This teaching will really help me. I have to practise.
Thank you Miriam Bartley. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. Stick with it.
Thank you from the bottom of our heart Dr Ekberg! Bless you !
I have been on medication for high blood pressure for almost 20 years. I understood nutrition and exercise, but I never realized how breathing would help me. Thank you so much for all of your informative videos!
Gdhd you practice this and how are you doing now?
What a joy this man is! I love how he explains the process. I, along with many people. have to know why something works. He explains the breathing technique beautifully!
This Doctor is real. His working for other's not for money. God bless him. All the way from Republic of Ireland fililipino
Dr Ekberg, thank you so much for your explanation of this breathing process. I have been hearing that I should do breathing exercises, but no one spent the time to explain how and why. This habit should be for life. Thank you for the lesson. God bless you!!
Dr Ekberg, I can't thank you enough for your advice and detailed explanations! Im 30 years old and consider myself very fit and healthy. I workout a lot and have a good diet. After a minor operation at hospital I was found to have high blood pressure. Although I have not found the cause, your simple yet effective breathing technique has reduced my SYS reading from 145 down to 116. Just from a few minutes of your breathing method! I feel relaxed and so much more optimistic about my blood pressure. I will do this technique several times a day. Thank you so much. You have alleviated so much stress in the space of 24 minutes. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I am going thru the same thing more or less. When you do these breathing excercises do you lie down or stand up and do you do it twice a day for 10 mins.? And do you inhale and exhale thru the nose? Thank U.
@@anitabruckner6762 I have been breathing this way for several months after watching this video. Took myself off BP meds straight off, as deep breathing from the first day has worked so much better. I have found that sitting quietly or lying down works best, on the hour for 10 breaths. I am training myself to breath this was all the time. I am getting there, but it takes practice.
@@anitabruckner6762 If you only deep breathe two or three times a day you can easily miss a session and eventually the whole process can slide. On the hour if you miss once or twice it doesn't matter. And on the hour is more accumulative and will become a lifetime habit. It is becoming a habit for me now. Yes I may aim for 15 times a day but only deep breathe 10 times, which is plenty to be habit forming. I even breathe this way when I run and cycle at aerobic heart rate.
I breathe in through the nose and mostly out through the mouth. The nose would be better but I have a slightly narrowed nasal passage from a an accident - not worth an operation the specialist told me. But I can do both methods of out through the nose or mouth. Both work the same as in lowering blood pressure, which I have measured many times. But like trying to become fit for running races or walking, consistency id the key. Flatten out the grass and make a worn trail. I don't see this breathing method as for just lowering BP now but for good health. It lowers cortisol well too, which I got from having elevated BP some 8 months back. It is returning to normal now albeit slowly.
Anita how has your results been please
Ein super Video. Gut und verständlich erklärt.
Alle deine Videos sind super, ich liebe es.
Schade das noch nicht alle auf deutsch sind, das hätte ich mir wirklich gewünscht ❤
Selten jemand kann so gut, unkompliziert und auf den Punkt genau die Sache erklären, dass man es wirklich versteht.
Großes Dank dafür ❤️❤️❤️🤗
This must be the MOST IMPORTANT information on any Healing channel. Thank you so much Dr Ekberg.....you are a GEM!❤
Thank you so much for this excellent lecture. God bless you Dr. Ekberg🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I really loved your explanation. The most direct I’ve seen so far. Have started practicing and observing important changes in my BP pattern...Amazing Job 🙏🏼
Finally a video which made me understand why the exhalation should be long and slow. Thank you so much Dr for the detailed information. Your video encouraged me to do the breath excercises. I will comment again may after 6 months hopefully with positive results on my blood pressure results
Oh my stars Dr. Ekberg, you are totally awesome! At 9:22am my bp was 145/71-64; at 10:10am its 125/75-56. Ty so much for explaining all of this, you are a great teacher, so calm & easy to understand & follow. I feel exuberant! I’m sharing your video with my family & friends! All the best to you & yours. Live Long & Prosper.🖖🏾😃
Really appreciate your work. So far the best in this category. Great job. Sincere effort. By the way I'm a medical doctor
Deep breathing actually felt so good I broke out in spontaneous laughter while doing it. A calming kind of strange in a good way.
This man is brilliant, I love the way he explains things. Plus, he is a world class athlete.
I’m sharing this with family and friends, this is so well described. Thank you very much for such clear information.
I love the way the doctor fully explains how everything works so everyone understands completely in a simple, and logical manor.
A wonderful teacher and educator
Express my deep gratitude for your precious lessons, thanks a lot. May God bless you Doctor.
Thank you Radhakrishnan Nair. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile.
Thank you very much Dr. Sten, I watch everyday and for several hours. The things that you share are valuable. More power!!
Another wonderful video!! I don't have HBP but I do have bad digestion, high insulin, high cortisol and slow healing.
THANK YOU DOCTOR!!
This was AMAZING!! The way you broke it down was clear as water. Makes a lot of sense. Thank you!

This is an excellent video! I am a yoga and meditation teacher and this reinforces and validates how I am teaching breathing. Personally, despite my own good health and breathing practices, I have a tendency of experiencing white coat hypertension. Your explanation is helping me make peace with my fight or flight tendency in medical situations and I feel better equipped to manage it and be mindful of the automatic thoughts. I agree with other comments that this should be mandatory education. There is so much stress in the world and this would really help people live healthier and more peaceful lives if kids learned this information before patterns were as entrenched. Thank you Dr. Sten!
Dr.Ekberg
I have white coat syndrome and will try anything to stay calm.
I have been doing Buteyko Breathing for over 10 years. This Video is fantastic. Very simple to understand. Thanks Doctor Ekberg.
Thank you so much Dr Sten. This is wonderful advice. Possibly the best I've heard on this subject. Much appreciated.
Thank you dr.your explanation has helped me to understand the pranayama how it helps to heal various health issues.🙏
This information is perfect for what I need at the moment. Thank you so much for everything you offer 🙌 Who knew that was the proper way to breathe! I can see how this will help stress as well. Thank you for all of the time and information you share so we can live naturally healthier lives 😊
Oh wow!!! This really work! Tk you very much Dr fir your generosity of saving lives around the world for free!!
The best explanation I’ve ever heard ! Brilliant ! That can’t be bettered ! Great doc!!
Excellent! Thank you very much for such good clear information. Love watching your videos, they are most helpful.
Thank you eileenfb1948. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it.
Dr. Ekberg you're the kind of engaging teacher we wished to have in our College of Phamacy back then.
Thank you MrRxac. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile.
