By calming down and lying flat one can lower Bp to certain extent but consult physician for medications. On a general note, follow life style modifications such as Increase activity and exercise more, Lose weight if you're overweight, Cut back on sugar and refined carbohydrates, Eat more potassium and less sodium, Eat less processed food, Reduce excess stress and Try meditation or yoga.
