Certainly,but tellMD: You should let your MD know anytime you may be doing a significant exercise regimen change,although the BP you gave us doesnt inherently mean you cant do Yoga.I often send my patients to Physical therapy before starting maintenance exercises like yoga where their BP and other cardiac parameters can be monitored 1st. More importantly that lets them warm up and prestretch muscles.Keep your MD aware.
