Think high blood pressure is just about salt? Think again.

In this episode, we bring together a GP, breathwork specialist, TCM acupuncturist, and medical herbalist to explore the real drivers of hypertension—from chronic stress and HPA axis dysfunction to inflammation, insulin resistance, and poor sleep.

You'll learn:

  • How to measure your blood pressure correctly at home (most people get this wrong)
  • Why cortisol constricts your vessels and how breathwork can help
  • The connection between insulin resistance, blood sugar, and hypertension
  • How inflammation damages the endothelium—and which foods protect it
  • Why sleep quality determines whether your pressure dips at night
  • The one herb to avoid if you have high blood pressure
  • When to worry: red flags that require immediate medical attention

Whether you're newly diagnosed, supporting a loved one, or simply curious, this episode will empower you to take an active role in your health.
