Hello and welcome
If you are above 30 and feels rapid heart rate periodically than you have to consult your cardiologist and get yourself checked. The causes may be:
1. Anxiety: Stress or anxiety is the major cause for rapid heart rate and need relaxation of mind. Sava Asana will help you.
2. Heart related issue: AF or PSVT are the conditions in which patient feels rapid heart rates.

Get your EKG done at the time of episode or go for 24 hrs holter study. This will rule out the cause of problem. If you are above 30 years old your doctor may order you TMT (Treadmill test) to lnow your heart condition.
Hope this will help you.
Best Wishes
