Hello,
Most probably it is due to excessive anxiety. However, it is better to consult a physician and get an ECG to rule out possible cardiac causes.
Avoid unwanted stress and anxiety. Relaxation techniques like yoga and meditation can help a bit.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
