Asanas/Pranayamas for High BP	Can't Post

Hi all,

I am new to this forum & also new to the world of Yogasana. Recently I was found to have high BP & hence started doing yoga. I would like to know what are the best asanas & pranayama techniques that should be performed for better control on BP?

Also, I am practising yogasana for about a month after my BP diagnosis.

Kindly help me in this regard.

Thanks in Advance.

Regards,
Sanju.

In case you are interested, following the previous advice to consult a doctor and a good teacher to get started, there's an excellent CD-ROM from B.K.S. Iyengar: Yoga for Blood Pressure with good background and advice on ıoga-practice.

Available through: jjrtoussaint@freeler.nl behalf of the Dutch B.K.S. Iyengar Yoga Association.
