1. Your job profile.
2. Any recent change in your activitities.
3. Any medicine you are taking.
4. Whether you have started exercising?

Blood pressure of 133/81 is within normal range for your age group.
The cause of your symptoms seems to be due to sudden rise of blod pressure and it should be properly investigated.
You should get following investigations done :-

Doing yoga and meditation will be helpful to you.
