Premature atrial contractions: Anyone have any helpful info on this?

I'm interested in others' experiences with different physical movements or positions causing PACs, etc. When I lie on my back I get more rhythm anomalies than normal. If this happens and I turn on my side, it stops. If I get a run of SVT, changing position, like standing up or sitting up quickly, makes it stop. Doing yard work involving swinging my arms, like raking, causes PACs. Does anyone else experience this?

I had the sleep test re sleep aphnea (sp). Mine was mild to moderate. Suggested I stay off my back when I sleep. It didn't seem like a big factor, but wearing a mask did seem like a big factor in my sleep.
Anyway, the point is sleep issues can cause or increase heart afib. as I understand it.
"know thyself" who said that?
I don't know, but movement is essential to bone and muscle strength. Yoga stretching is what I do and love it. No yard work to speak of. Just notice yourself is my motto.
