Breathe Your Way to Better Health

Did you know that something as simple as your breath can have a powerful impact on your blood pressure? When we feel stressed, our breathing often becomes shallow and fast, which can cause our heart rate and blood pressure to rise. The good news is that by practising slow, deep breathing, you can calm your nervous system and help lower your blood pressure naturally.

Here’s a quick breathing exercise you can try anytime. Try breathing in through your nose, feeling the ribs expand, then breathing out through your mouth, feeling the core muscles engage. This simple exercise is a great way to reset your day, reduce tension, and support your heart health. It also ties perfectly into Pilates, where mindful breathing is a core part of every movement, helping you stay centred, calm and connected to your body.

Give it a go today and see how a few deep breaths can make a big difference. Your heart will thank you! 💙
