sleep paralysis? This is the explanation

Maybe friends have experienced it. ... The terminology or medical term sleep paralysis is a condition in which a person suddenly awakens from his sleep but the body can not be moved, hard to talk, even see shadows or something strange.
     Actually why can this happen?
       Before that it's good we know the stages until someone fell asleep.
1) Light sleep (Stage 1)
     In this phase, our body and mind are half asleep or almost asleep. The brain produces a small and fast beta wave. In this phase, your eyes are closed but you are still easily awakened and awakened by others. Movement of the eyes and also the muscles is very slow in this phase.

2) Entering Deeper Sleep (Stage 2)
   At this stage the movement of the eye stops and the heart rate slows down. At this stage you will also enter a deeper stage of sleep.

3) Deeper Sleep Stage (Stages 3 and 4)
   At this stage of sleep our blood pressure goes down, breathing slows, and the eyes stop moving and the muscles relax. In stage 3, brain waves become very slow which is also called delta waves. In stage 4, our brain produces only delta waves.
The blood supply to the muscles will increase. Hormones, especially growth hormones are released, which are essential for growth and development, including for muscle. When we wake up from deep sleep, we can not immediately adapt and may feel a bit nervous and bewildered.
Stage 5 is often referred to as the REM stage

4. REM (Rapid Eye Movement) (Stage 5)
    This stage is the period when we dream.
      This stage is very important for our body to function normally. Usually the brain will try to keep us awake and not awake at this REM stage.
 



After knowing the stages of sleep, this is the reason why the fall is happening

 By the time you enter the REM (Rapid Eye Movement) stage, the brain will send a signal to turn off the muscles of the body so we do not move when the mimipi happens. Refraction occurs when a person awakens when the REM stage is not over and the brain itself is not ready to send a signal to wake up so that only the brain is built but our bodies are still in a state of sleep. Then you will feel the body can not move and also can not speak.


But, why there is a shadow of a strange figure?

 It happens not because of supernatural beings but the effect that resulted from a dream that has just been experienced. So do not worry if you see the shadows of a strange figure.

This issue of overlap is nothing to worry about. But if it happens too often, then you need to improve your sleep patterns. Avoid sleeping when the body is too tired. Give your brain and body time istrahat a minimum of 6 hours a night.
