Regular physical activity, such as brisk walking, swimming, or yoga, strengthens the heart and improves circulation, helping to lower blood pressure. Managing stress through meditation, deep breathing, or hobbies prevents hypertension caused by chronic tension.

Maintaining a healthy weight and limiting alcohol and caffeine intake further contribute to blood pressure control. Additionally, quitting smoking significantly reduces the risk of hypertension-related complications.

Adequate sleep and hydration are also essential for overall cardiovascular health. By adopting these natural strategies, individuals can effectively prevent and manage high blood pressure, reducing their risk of heart disease and promoting long-term well-being.
