It’s good that you’re already reducing salt intake, as it plays a major role in managing high blood pressure. In Ayurveda, the key lies in balancing your doshas, aligning with your body’s natural constitution, and addressing the root cause. Let’s explore some detailed steps you might find helpful.
First, consider your lifestyle routines, which is vital in Ayurveda. Practicing regular meditation or even simple deep breathing exercises can help to calm the mind and reduce stress - a known contributer to high blood pressure. Aim for at least 15-20 minutes a day, either in the morning or evening when you feel most at ease.
Dietary shifts are very crucial too. It is advisable to reduce Kapha-aggravating foods since they can contribute to high blood pressure. These often include processed foods, heavy dairy products, and too many sweets. Instead, lean more into fresh vegetables, fruits, and whole grains. You might also want to try some lesser-known alternatives to salt like using rock salt or sea salt in moderation.
Now, on herbal aids, Arjuna (Terminalia arjuna) is reknowned for supporting cardiovascular health. A safe way to consume this is in a powdered form mixed with warm water. Amla or Indian gooseberry might also be beneficial for you. Consider taking amla juice in the morning to support your doshas and blood pressure balance. But do check with your physician before making major shifts or introducing new items.
Regular mild exercise, such as walking, is another cornerstore in this approach. Ensuring moderate activity helps circulation and can positively influence your blood pressure. Aim for around 30 minutes most days, but start gently if you’re not used to regular movement.
Remember, each body is unique. What works for one is not always right for another, so these insights are more like a guide to work with. If blood pressure persists or gets worse, it’s very important to consult with a healthcare professional promptly.
