There are 5 stages of sleep. Stages 1, 2, 3, 4, and REM (Rapid Eye Movement). As you sleep, the body cycles through these stages, starting in stage 1, and moving up to REM, where the body would spend most of its time. Then from REM, the body would cycle back to stage 1. This happens a couple of times during a normal period of sleeping.
REM is very light sleep. In this stage, the body is completely paralyzed. You will dream in this stage. Your eyes would move rapidly and repeatedly.
When you start on missing sleep, or not getting enough sleep, your body will strive to enter the REM stage. It will spend the very minimal time in each stage, and then spend a lot of time in the REM. In fact, sometimes, the body would sleep in REM right away.
It is still an enigma as to why the body likes the REM so much, or even more, why the body is paralyzed there.
Attempt this for a startling experience. When you're very, very exhausted for long periods of time...your body, again, will strive to enter the REM stage. When you're that tired, and when you plan to finally get some sleep, try to focus on staying awake. Play some entrancing music if you must. Keeping thinking on something if you want. Stay awake at all costs -- but lie down, and close the lights. Do not talk to anyone…
If you're as tired as you should be, and if you really have focused on not falling asleep, eventually, you'll feel very warm and smooth heat all over your feet. This heat would, very slowly, climb up to your whole body. You wont feel its progression, but you'll feel it when it's there. If you're still up by now, it will feel to you as if you haven't any legs. You wont notice that right away unless you think about it...
If somehow you resisted the temptation to sleep by now, you'll experience the most amazing thing. Waves upon waves of heat and force will eventually force you to lie down still, if you resist, it'll feel as if you are resisting something, as if someone trying to nail you to the bed. If you don't resist, you'll become paralyzed, and would quickly and consciously begin falling asleep. If you keep resisting, the heat wave and the forces would decrease, but as soon as you start feeling your legs again and attempt to get up to make a reality check, you'd fall back again, the force would be stronger, and the heat would be more recurring, but not any hotter. If you keep resisting, the force would wear off, giving you the freedom of movement once again. However, you'll feel your heart pounding, and you will still feel the left over heat from the experience. Maybe you'd even be sweating.
It happened to me last night. I did not do it on purpose. When I finally could get up, I broke in laughter…because my right arm was in pain as if I was in some epic struggle. My lower back is also in pain, and still is till now…
It’s amazing…
