High Pressure Symptoms


Occasionally HPA axis activation, high blood pressure and inflammation align
to create some of the more extreme kundalini symptoms such as the sweating
of blood or temporary loss of eyesight. I assume headaches and loss of eyesight
during kundalini are largely due to high blood pressure, which occurs during
acute stages of “sympathetic” nervous system activation. Kidney cells produce
the enzyme renin, which causes a cascade that eventually results in hypertension
caused by the peptide angiotensin. Studies found that people with hypertension
or non-insulin dependent diabetes had higher levels of intracellular calcium and
lower levels of intracellular magnesium. Excess calcium in the cells and depleted
magnesium is associated with insulin resistance, resulting in obesity, diabetes,
arteriosclerosis, hypertension and aging. Low magnesium can result in opening of
calcium channels, increased intracellular calcium, glutamate release, and increased
extracellular potassium. High blood sugar increases serum alderhyde levels, which
raises blood pressure. Vitamin B6 lowers aldehyde levels, thus is an effective anti-
hypertensive.
sweating Blood—Increased histamine is probably common throughout an
awakening, but if there is also a threat to life or massive stressor, then a greater
amount of histamine might be suddenly released. This could contribute to the
kundalini symptom of sweating blood, such as when Jesus was in the Garden of
Gethsemane on the night prior to His crucifixion. Undoubtedly this phenomenon
is due to the increased release of histamine and prostaglandins and leukotrienes
during extreme stress. This condition known as hematidrosis, occurs during great
emotional stress when the tiny capillaries in the sweat glands can rupture due to
high blood pressure and inflammatory agents thus mixing blood with perspiration.
If ongoing bleeding is a problem you may need to increase the integrity of your
collagen structures with silicon (Biosil), Vitamin C, zinc, hyaluronic acid and
the amino acid lysine. Collagen is strong white fiber network held together with
macropolysaccharides, which constitutes the connective tissue that holds our
bodies together. Vitamin C is essential to the manufacture of collagen, blood
vessels would be better protected if an abundant environmental supply of this
vitamin were available in the circulating fluids that bathe the tissue cells.
If you are bleeding from the skin during kundalini your histamine levels are
too high. Or you may have a hypersensitivity to histamine, which makes your
blood vessel walls more permeable. Probably you were exposed to an allergen
from food, environment or infection, which added to an already hyperhistamine
condition. The bioflavonoid quercetin is an antihistamine, with twelve times more
antioxidant power than Vitamin E. The following substances “increase” bleeding
risk: Danshen, Devil’s claw, Dong quai, Papain, Vitamin E.
Adrenaline (Epinephrine) is the only chemical that can quickly eliminate
histamine. To aid your adrenals I suggest that you gently tap your adrenal glands
with your fists for 10 minutes. Then tap your thymus between your breasts for
another 10 minutes. An increase in water intake will reduce histamine levels, so sip
regularly on water up to 4-5 quarts a day. Take a warm bath and soak a long time
