Benign Positional Vertigo, Anyone with experience?

I experienced BPV about 15 years ago and it resolved on its own but it sometimes comes back when I’m lying in bed and tilt my head a certain way. Sometimes I can “catch” myself and move my head back before a big spin begins and it will stop.

Things were fine for a long time until I started yoga classes in February, when certain positions would start my head spinning again. I stopped yoga and it got better but it’s not 100% gone yet – I still experience some vertigo when I sleep on my side. I’m going to try the Epley maneuver, which sounds like the exercises njblue mentioned.
