Sleep is the time when our reaction to the outside world is declining. A full sleep is very important for health, lack of sleep affects the appearance and general condition.
Despite the fact that in a dream a person is resting, this does not prevent him from encountering strange and inexplicable sensations. Some things still remain a mystery to science ...
What are these strange things? Learn from the article.
10. Sleepy paralysis
A person can wake up at night or in the morning, and feel himself already awakened and in consciousness. That's just when he tries to get up, scream, move his hand - he does not succeed ...
At this moment, it seems to a person that this state will never go away, however, after he falls asleep and then wakes up again, it goes away.
But at the moment of paralysis, a person is very scared, he starts to panic, it may seem to him that he is falling down ... Those who have often had paralysis can recognize this condition and calm themselves.
Sleep paralysis occurs due to the fact that the muscles "turn off", and the brain is awake. When we fall asleep, then in a dream we are paralyzed, so that we can not perform any actions.
9. Conversations in a dream
A person can talk in a dream and even be embarrassed if someone hears his babble ... It happens that a person wakes up and understands what he is saying.
People who speak in a dream suffer from dubiousness (speech activity during sleep), which is quite common. This is not a dangerous condition, but it can be uncomfortable for those who do not want to be listened to.
Talking in a dream can be caused by overwork and stress. Also, if a person makes a decision with which he does not agree, he can start talking in a dream.
8. A dream in a dream
A dream in a dream is felt as if a person had just woken up and was glad that all the frightening events had happened to him in a dream, but for some reason strange things continued to happen ...
This means that the awakening has been dreamed, and the person continues to sleep, while experiencing fear.
A dream in a dream may occur if a person raves with rest. In such an unusual way, the brain gives a signal that it is time to begin to be distracted.
7. Recurring Dreams
Probably, every person came across such a phenomenon as recurring dreams. The same plot can be played every day or even after 5 years ...
A person wakes up and understands - the dream that he just saw had already once dreamed him ... It may contain slightly different details, but in general his feelings during sleep and what is happening are the same. What does it mean?
Repeated dreams may indicate that a difficult situation is occurring in a person’s life, which he cannot solve in any way. Or his decision conflicts with the internal settings. The dream will be repeated until the person resolves the situation.
6. Exit to the astral
Access to the astral plane in a dream, as a rule, is not recognized by a person. He goes to the bathroom, brushes his teeth, as usual, and does not even realize that he is dreaming of everything that is happening. He either wakes up for real, or continues to be in the world of dreams.
A person may not notice how his physical body remains in place, but sometimes it happens differently - he can see himself from the outside, and get very scared of it.
In this state, a person is half asleep. Such an experience is called differently - the astral, lucid dream, false awakening, etc., but in any case the dreamer is outside his body.
5. Illumination during sleep
Sometimes we do not know what to do in a given situation - this may concern different areas. For example, a musician does not know what melody to choose for his music, and a mathematician cannot solve a very difficult task ...
In a dream, an answer to an exciting question may come; a person can only remember and document it.
While you are sleeping, an insight comes to you, the subconscious mind tries to help. Everyone knows that Mendeleev saw a periodic system of chemical elements in a dream.
4. Somnambulism
There is a condition called sleep paralysis, in which a person is awakened, but cannot move. Sleepwalking is the opposite state. A person is sleeping, but muscle paralysis does not occur.
In a state of somnambulism, a person walks, he may even find himself outside the doors of his house and walk at distances that are far from him. Sleepwalking is a disease that carries a danger to others, because a sleeping person can kill.
In the morning, the lunatics do not remember anything from what happened to them. The methods of treatment are still unknown, it is by no means impossible to wake a lunarctic - this threatens him with a mental disorder.
3. Hypnogagic hallucinations
When a person has almost fallen asleep, but still remains awake, then, being conscious, he sees pictures in front of him - these can be fantastic creatures, images that are terrifying. These imaginary sensations seem real.
Image, sound, smell, taste - all this is felt only in the mind. Hypnagogic hallucinations are often associated with a sleep disorder such as narcolepsy.
Such hallucinations can be caused by stress or a very rich imagination. They differ from sleep in that a person feels everything, as in reality.
2. Falling into bed
Sometimes people feel as if they are falling and appear on the bed. After experiencing, they suddenly wake up and startle. Before this there may be a dream in which a person ran, fell, stumbled ... It is very unpleasant to experience it.
The state of sleep is somewhat similar to death - a person’s heart rate, breathing slows down, and muscle tone becomes reduced. The "brain" is really scared, and perceives it as death, and, sending impulses to the muscles, checks whether the person is alive.
1. Exploding head syndrome
A person wakes up from an explosion or a deafening shot. It seems to him that he heard some sounds in reality.
This is a rare and unusual severe disorder, sounds occur in a person's head, sometimes accompanied by pictures in the form of flashes of lightning. The phenomenon causes horror in people, they think they have survived a stroke.
This syndrome can happen in people who often fly and encounter different time zones, and also in those who suffer from insomnia. For some reason, a spike in neural activity occurs in the areas of the brain responsible for sound processing.
