I Keep loving to do more and more about research but it always keeps giving me avenue to learn knew things daily and I guess that is how everyone of us should be so that we can keep learning and improving in this life. Growing up, I grew up understanding the importance of engaging in exercise and trust me, it is very true. The importance of exercise to our health can never be denied.

But recently, I came across a write-up topic from someone online about how breathing exercise helps to actually reduce anxiety and blood pressure. This really makes me so curious that I went to do some research and to a very great extent, it is true.

First let me start by talking a bit about how our nervous system works and generally the breathing process. Our breathing seems to be the sustaining power as living things. Anything that fight our breathing state in our body system is threatening our living state. Whenever we have a bad breathing state, it generally sends a negative signal to our body system.

I discovered from the research I carried out that breathing exercise have a way of helping to reduce the tendency of us suffering from anxiety. I am talking about exercise like the diaphragmatic breathing and others. Engaging in those types of breathing exercise goes a long way to help us calm down our mind. If you are the type that is suffering from disorder like anxiety disorder, engaging in daily breathing exercise will go a long way to serve as medication to the disorder.

If there is a common issue that every individual within the range of 40+ years above is suffering now, I will say it is high blood pressure. High blood pressure can always leads to diseases like heart disease and even stroke at the end of the day. Of course there are some drugs and medications that helps to regulate the high blood pressure but it has been proven that when you make some lifestyle adjustments like engaging in breathing exercise, it can go a long way to help to manage health issues like stroke, hypertension.

In fact, when I did the research, I discovered that a similar experiment was carried out in the year 2005 and they discovered that people who engaged in breathing exercise witnessed a drop in their blood pressure. Personally I believe most of the time, we always look down on the power of exercise or generally things we are familiar with probably because we have heard it several times. Exercise is good. No matter how busy you are, engage in exercise and not just breathing exercise alone, I mean exercise generally. It will go a long way to help improve your health state.
