5 strange phenomena happen while sleeping makes many people panic

Many of us may have experienced one or several of these 5 phenomena. When they happen while sleeping, the common person gets confused, even frightened. But luckily, most are harmless.

It feels like it's falling

When sleeping, the body will fall into a state of rest, the brain will automatically 'turn off' certain activities in the body. After this deep sleep, dreams may appear, according to Health24.

But in some cases, the dream reappears before the brain puts the body into a state of complete rest. This makes us feel the things that happen in dreams like falling off a cliff or from above, Dr. Christopher Winter, Director of the Sleep Center of Martha Jefferson Hospital (USA), said. .

This phenomenon occurs because we are so tired, stressed, that the brain enters the sleep cycle so fast that the body does not keep up, Dr. Winter added.

Temporary paralysis after waking up

When you wake up in the morning, your body feels numb, unable to move or speak. This state can last a few seconds to a few minutes and make people afraid.

Basically, this phenomenon occurs in contrast to the feeling of falling. The feeling of numbness is due to the brain waking up while the body recovers more slowly and is still in a deep sleep state, according to Health24.

 

About 5% of adults talk when they sleep, and most of them talk about no more than 30 seconds, according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM).

This phenomenon occurs about 1 to 2 hours after sleep. This is the time when the body begins to enter a deep sleep stage, when the muscles are not fully rested and still capable of pronouncing, Dr. Winter said.

Seeing a dream again and again

Dreams are a way in which our brains rearrange memories, evaluate them before putting them into memory. Seeing a dream again can very well be related to a problem that the brain is trying to solve. Therefore, these dreams are often associated with a part of the story that happened in practice, according to Health24.

Syndrome 'head exploded'

'Suddenly you wake up and hear a loud noise with the intensity of an explosion or a beam of dazzling light appear but in reality nothing happens , ' said Dr. Winter.

These loud sounds appear as if your head is 'booming'. The idea of ​​happening occurs just like a feeling of falling, that is, when the body has not fully rested and the senses are still active, according to Health24.
