a study to verify the impact of mindfulness-based relaxation exercises on the average blood pressure, stress, and anxiety of pregnant women with high blood pressure, as well as on the growth of unborn baby for eight weeks, and how these affect the women and baby till delivery

INTERVENTION: Intervention1: Audio Instructed Mindfulness therapy: This is a 30‐minute audio which is mindfulness‐based. the audio consists of pre‐recorded clear and complete instructions that will help the participant to listen and perform. during the first visit, the researcher will guide the participant regarding the practice.

Control Intervention1: Hospital standard care protocol with relaxation: the participants will be visited once a week for 8 weeks and mean arterial pressure will be assessed before and after the intervention. the participant will be asked to sit for 30 minutes sitting in a relaxed position with legs elevated in a quiet environment for 30 minutes.
