Read previewA gentle, low-impact form of exercise may help keep your heart healthy and lower your blood pressure even more than hitting the treadmill, new research suggests. Half the group were randomly assigned to do tai chi, while the other group did cardio exercises such as jogging or cycling. AdvertisementWithin six months, participants who did tai chi saw more improvements in their blood pressure than the cardio group. By the end of the year, the tai chi group had even lower blood pressure, and were significantly more likely to have a healthy blood pressure than their cardio-trained peers, according to the researchers. While more research is needed to understand how it works, the latest study suggests tai chi could be a safe, effective strategy for people of all ages to improve their blood pressure toward healthy levels.

Read previewFive minutes a day might be all it takes to add healthy years to your life, according to a longevity specialist. You can link existing habits to healthy changes like a quick exercise session, a moment of deep breathing, and more. One technique is a simple exercise of focusing on your breath as you inhale for a count of four, hold for a count of seven, and exhale for a count of eight. Research suggests that gratitude not only improves mental health, but can also protect your physical health through factors like reducing blood pressure. "This can be a really powerful framework to not only add more years to your life, but more life to your years."
