Several Yoga studies shows a significant change in respiratory parameters. As the respiratory and cardiac activities are interrelated, there must be some impact of Yoga practice on Cardiac parameters. Can we just control our Blood pressure i.e If someone is hypertensive he can reduce his BP, but if someone have low blood pressure can he improve it through Yoga?
I concur with Mahesh about specifying which area you want to observe because the effect of yoga on the cardiac system is immense. Quickly browsing through the AHA, can give you a general idea of what has been done so far.
You ask about yoga for low blood pressure or for heart beats??!!please explain
EXERCISES of yoga for low blood pressure
1. Yoga Breathing Regular practice increases the flow of blood into the brain.
2. Sit up These are muscle-toning exercises that help to keep a control over blood pressure.
3. Side Bending Strengthens the muscles and increases the blood flow.
4. Back bending Improves the flow of blood into the brain and strengthens the back muscles.
I would say most definitely. There are many more qualified people answering your question though as an energy healer I know that breath regulation and meditation can change many things on the physical, emotional, mental, and I dare say, spiritual level. Mindfulness is about becoming conscious of our breath and thoughts so yoga and meditation can help guide our breath and thoughts in positive ways.
Thank you friends for taking interest in this question. Pls see the attached articles.

Dear Kamakhya kumar,
Yes, yoga (with slow and paced breathing) may elicits beneficial changes in cardiovascular health through Cardiovascular reflex control system. With my research experience on hypertension in elderly, we have demonstrated that yoga can control Grade-I hypertension not associated with CV risk factors (RCT). We have also shown that yoga can improve age-associated vascular dysfunction, reduce sympathetic overactivity and oxidative stress. We are now working on to understand underlying beneficial mechanism. We do not know, whether Yoga based approach is sustainable in individuals with hypertension associated with CV risk factors such hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia. You can find my articles on RG.
Dear Satish G. Patil
Greetings...!!
Thank you for your submission in this discussion!
Dear kamakhya sir
The cardiac activity definitely controlled by yoga practice.
In the yoga asana mainly Beck bending and Locust posture may have some significant role in positive role in cardiac activity but it's required more studies we also planing for same to see the immediate effect on cardiac autonomic nervous system in different yoga posture.
In the pranayam chandrabhedi pranayam have significant role ovarian the PNS while Suryabhedi have role on Sympathetic part of cardiac autonomic. The reserch also showed that if we prolonged our exhalation as compared to inhalation it's cause parasympathetic dominance. A parts from practice of bhahir kumbhaka also lead parasympathetic dominance.
We also observed some role of chantingand it's role on cardiac autonomic. If we performance slow pitch omkar having parasympathetic dominance. Out of these the MMM components of omkar have more parasympathetic dominance as compared to other.m
