Dizziness when standing occurs due to low blood pressure. The body is at rest and upon standing the heart needs to pump faster to supply more pressure.

However if it continues to happen, you should get your blood pressure checked at your doctor.
Why does someone pass out when they stand up?
Someone may pass out when they stand up due to a condition called orthostatic hypotension. This occurs when blood pressure drops suddenly upon standing, leading to reduced blood flow to the brain.
