Flowing with breath helps to reduce anxiety thus reducing blood pressure--pranayama (breath control) has the same effect. Inversions (downdog, forward fold, headstand, shoulderstand) require the circulatory system work harder and in unusual directions thus strengthening the heart and associated systems.
