It absolutely does work on blood pressure! Especially if you can find a quiet place to say it -an old dark church, for instance. Silence is a must!

If I can get in deep enough the whole circus can pass by and I won't notice, but silence at the beginning is awesome.

My old parish also started again praying the rosary before every mass so that the chatty ones could chat productively. ;)
