Focusing upon others' needs is a wonderful way to reduce your fixation upon your own cravings. Helping others produces the feel-good chemical dopamine in your brain. Your happiness will divert your brain from cravings. When a craving hits, ask yourself "What can I do to help someone right now?" Perhaps you might call an elderly relative or write a letter. Maybe you can perform an act of kindness for your partner or a friend. Build opportunities to help others into your regular routine. Consider volunteering for an organization with a mission you find appealing, or find ways to help out at work or at school. Exercising not only burns calories, but also suppresses your appetite for up to two hours following a high-intensity workout session. Aerobic exercise suppresses the appetite hormone ghrelin. Maximize the impact of your workout by alternating high-impact intervals with brief periods of rest. Women, in particular, tend to experience strong emotional reactions to music. Create an upbeat playlist that you can listen to when cravings strike. The music will distract you and provide an emotional release, redirecting your brain. Create a message to repeat to yourself when cravings hit. Mental conditioning can take time to become effective, but as you continue to repeat your message it will sink into your consciousness and help redirect your energy from cravings. Target the effects of succumbing to your craving "A moment on the lips, a lifetime on the hips" would be one example. Consider positive messages you can substitute for the negative feelings associated with your cravings. Remind yourself of your best attributes or qualities. For example, you might train yourself to remember, "I am a compassionate person. I keep my body healthy so I can serve others well." Visualize yourself as healthy. When you begin to experience a craving, consciously tell yourself, "Stop!" Then replace the image of your craving with a healthy image. Over time, this image will sink in and override the craving. Humans need community in order to thrive. Networks of friendship and shared interests will help you manage stress and fulfill your needs in positive ways. Consider your interests. Do you enjoy art? Music? Reading? Playing a sport? Research opportunities for becoming involved in activities you enjoy. Contact a friend when you feel the urge to succumb to your cravings. You'll distract yourself and replace a negative impulse with a positive connection. Do you tend to turn to food, alcohol or other substances when you're bored? Staying busy is one of the best ways to curb cravings. If you're on the go, you won't have time to worry about what you're craving. Fill your schedule with activities that require you to be up and about. If you spend a lot of time sitting at a desk, mix things up by going outside for quick walks throughout the day. Doing so will prevent you from becoming bored and giving in to cravings. Meet with people in person instead of talking on the phone or texting, since it's easy to eat and use the phone at the same time. Examine the foundations of your craving and target your distractions accordingly. After all, when you crave you are hoping the object of your craving will make you feel better. If you're craving chocolate and recognize that you're actually lonely, taking a solo walk likely won't help but visiting with a friend probably will.

Summary: Find ways to help others. Exercise regularly. Stimulate your happiness with music. Develop a mantra. Seek connections. Distract yourself.

Exercise of all kinds can help treat your hypertension. Start working out for at least 30 minutes a day with aerobic exercise such as walking, jogging, or swimming. Try to add strength training into your routine twice a week as well. Check with your doctor about your exercise regimen if you have medical problems or are very overweight. You should shoot for at least five days of exercise a week, or three if you do more intense, 25 minute long exercises such as HIIT cardio. Even if you have to start small, try to at least walk for exercise everyday. You can build up to more elaborate exercise routines and activities. Find a buddy with whom to exercise. Whether it's a neighbor you treat as a walking buddy or your best friend whom you coerce into swimming laps with you, it's easier to consistently exercise when the exercise itself is a social activity. Try different exercises. As soon as you get bored with your routine, you're likely to quit. So the secret is never getting bored in the first place. Constantly think about what you could be doing to mix up your routine. Stress, anxiety, and depression can increase hypertension. Learn to manage and cope with stress to improve your emotional and physical health. Take time out of every day to do a relaxing, fun activity. This can be playing a game with family and friends, reading a book, watching your favorite TV show, going for a hike in your favorite location, or walking your dog. If your stress comes from your crazy schedule, learn to say no to activities that aren't a necessity. Give yourself time to rest each day and learn to manage your time better. If you feel like your anxiety and depression are not linked with hypertension or it is a major part of your life, speak to your healthcare professional. Smoking is one of the most common and avoidable contributing factors to cardiovascular death. It is bad for your overall health, especially that of your lungs and heart. The added chemicals in cigarettes cause increases in heart rate and vessel constriction, which transiently increased blood pressure. The effects of smoking can also last for years, even if you quit. Cigarette smoking also causes your arteries to stiffen over time, which doesn't go away right after you quit. Ask your doctor about ways to quit smoking, such as shots, medications, patches, pills, and group or individual therapy.

Summary: Exercise more. Reduce your stress. Quit smoking.
