I am currently borderline after stopping my blood pressure medication 2 months ago(it was too low). Now my reading are often in the range of 145/92. It is a nervous and stress related blood pressure. I am very emotional and anxious. I am 47 and vegan.

yes if appropriate postures are adopted. There are postures which should not be done while having blood pressure. So yoga must be practiced with the help of an experienced Yoga teacher. 145/92 is a less than marginal case where change in food habits, sleeping habits, exercise habits etc should bring it under control.
