A sub-study will be conducted exploring physiological effects of yoga in participants with heart failure. The sub-study will include 40 of the patients with heart failure included in the main study. In the sub-study six additional measures will be performed at baseline and after 3 months in 20 study participants with heart failure in the intervention group; ergospirometry, echocardiography, Holter ECG, microcirculation using the epos system, maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressure. There will be four additional measures in 20 participants from the control-group at baseline and after 3 months; Holter ECG, microcirculation using the epos system and maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressure.
