Need info/website on Meditation for health purposes...

I am looking to control my blood pressure (yes, again). I take some very powerful drugs and am under the care of my doctor,but I don't expect him to advise me on Meditation (altho he might...I'll see him tomorrow).

I know it's all about concentrating on breathing and I have been doing that for the past few days. JUst wondering if there were other techniques I don't know about...

Here's the link to the app store page. I like it because I can use it as I sit in the office waiting for the dr. or while waiting for PT and nobody knows. You don't have to use the sound with it, you can just run it on visual mode.
