100 beats per minute is a high rate at rest. You can easily misinterpret it as your heart racing. The reason for this may include stress, caffeine, or some medicines. To help, try relaxation techniques you can do before bed like deep breathing. If it doesn't stop, talking to a cardiologist might be a better option.
