The main purpose of the present study was to assess the efficiency of meditation practice on systolic blood pressure among pre-hypertensive women. Thirty women with pre-stage hypertension were randomly selected from Karaikudi, Tamil Nadu, India. Subjects’ age ranged from 25 to 30 years, and selected subjects were separated into two groups, one control group and another meditation group (15x15). The meditation group was engaged in a 6-week training program, and assessment was done weekly in 4 days for 40 minutes. Selected subjects were tested on systolic blood pressure using a sphygmomanometer. Results revealed that due to meditation practice systolic blood pressure was significantly improved. A significant change was recorded between the pre-test to post-test of the control group and treatment groups. The result shows that regular meditation practice was beneficial for pre-stage hypertensive women to reduce systolic blood pressure.

Obesity is one of the world's most critical increasing medical concerns. It is a state in which excess body fat gathers to such an extent that it adversely affects one's health. Obesity provokes a variety of additional illnesses, namely diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, lung disease, and many more, and it has cost countless lives worldwide. It is common for people in sedentary occupations to become overweight, due to the workday usually taking up roughly half of one's waking hours. As a result, there is little time for physical activity when compared with other types of work. However, there are several ways to motivate an individual to be physically active and lose weight. A pedometer, which tracks every step you take, may be a major motivator, assisting a person to meet their fitness objectives by displaying how much an individual moves daily. It only offers a person good feedback, such as the more steps you walk, which is a wonderful incentive. Wearing a pedometer is a simple, non-invasive technique for an individual to enhance awareness of daily activity, which leads to greater physical activity.
