to consistently work on getting my blood pressure down to a healthier level. It’s borderline high but I know that now is the time to do something about it before it goes any higher. The best thing I did for my blood pressure yesterday was to emphatically speak up for myself when I felt someone was being manipulative at work. Because I was directly affected by the situation I addressed the issue directly and felt great about it when it was all over. There were some surprised looks when I left the room but, hey, they’ll get over it…and my blood pressure probably dropped a couple of points because I didn’t hold it all in.
