Long-term stress may play a part in high blood pressure. But more research is needed to tell if lowering stress can help bring down blood pressure.
The American Heart Association suggests meditation and deep breathing exercises to help lower stress.
Connecting with friends and family also may help lower stress. Think about joining a support group. You may find that talking about your health concerns with others in similar situations can help.
