Putting your feet in a bowl of warm water dilates the blood vessels in your feet and draws the blood away from your head, which may ease pain. Lift weights to lower your blood pressure. It improves blood flow and triggers a long-lasting drop in blood pressure. Use the power of flowers and herbs to ease your mood.
