RE: Sleep Paralysis: An Unpleasant Side Effect of Lucid Dreaming
Learning to stay calm within the OBE is great but within paralysis is a bit hard as the instinct is to panic. paralysis also involve the feeling of being unable to breath which is even worse than that of being unable to move.
I believe one can last in any out of body state with practice when the attention becomes stable and can lead to deeper states of introspection. I never had enough time to try it. My attention fluctuates and cuts out less than 30seconds.
Lol about the snoring part/ Sometimes I would hear myself do that while trying to be as conscious as possible while falling asleep.
Hearing the snoring is one thing and, as far as I have experienced, I can't help but believe that it is one of the main triggers of sleep paralysis too, along with blankets in one's face and situations like it that actually prevent one from breathing properly. It is such a powerful and useful mechanism that our body has to recall the spirit back to itself to make sure one doesn't just die because they have started to swallow their tongue or half of one's hoodie is over their face! ;)
Thanks for the great comment! Namaste :)
Lol. I think this is usually the case. I will be checking your blog out for related articles.
