Likely it would help patients to learn deep breathing techniques and/or yoga nidra type techniques after the development of high blood pressure and even heart disease to practice during stress times to lower their blood pressure and possibly the incidence of cardiovascular events.
An extremely small study of Yoga Nidra and hypertension. It showed a single session of Yoga Nidra reduced the systolic and diastolic BP and increased HRV parameters. Regression analyses showed that the reduction in BP can be explained by an increase in HRV parameters.
