Abstract
Hypertension, a chronic lifestyle disorder, has arisen as a global health concern and a major cause of illness and mortality. It not only affects physical health but also disrupts psychological and emotional well-being. The present study examines the effect of Rajyoga Meditation on the overall well-being of hypertensive patients. Thirty participants diagnosed with primary hypertension were selected from Janakpuri Super Speciality Hospital, New Delhi. Purposive sampling method was used to select participants. They underwent an eight-week Rajyoga Meditation program, with daily 30-minute guided sessions. Data were collected before and after the intervention using blood pressure measurements and a standardized well-being scale. Results revealed a significant reduction in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure, along with enhanced emotional stability, stress management and self-reported well-being. The findings recommend that regular practice of Rajyoga Meditation enhances physiological balance and psychological harmony, offering a holistic and cost-effective approach to manage hypertension.
