I was always told don't do fast breathing - like shining skull breath, panting or sharp inhales or exhales. Any slow controlled breathing should help lower blood pressure over time, particularly if the HBP is stress related.

Similarly, the poses - try to avoid or modify any inversions (upside down/head below heart).

If you feel sick, dizzy or pain come out of the pose or just breath normally.

If you go to an in person class let your teacher know about the blood pressure and medication and he/she will be able to suggest modifications or alternatives.
