Step 1
Recognize that you're suffering from nothing more than a miscue. Your brain, which prevents you from acting out your dreams by paralyzing your body, simply hasn't realized that you've awakened. It continues to dream, which is why you see things that aren't really there and why you can't move.
-
Step 2
Try to break the paralysis by concentrating on moving only one finger or toe. If you can't do this, try moving your eyes, looking side to side as rapidly as you can manage. If you can get a single body part moving, this is often enough to break the paralysis, dispelling the dream images and allowing you to sit up.
-
Step 3
Get out of bed. Go to the bathroom or get a drink from the kitchen.
-
Step 4
When you return to bed, sleep on your side. Most attacks of sleep paralysis occur to people who sleep on their backs.
-
Step 5
To avoid future attacks of sleep paralysis, adopt a regular sleeping schedule. Make sure you're getting adequate rest. Take steps to manage the stress in your daily life. Stop taking sleep aids if you can.

on 8/18/2008 Sleep parlaysis. No i don't think it is with the brain. I was attacked when i was two minutes into my bed. I saw the demon attack me. Very frightening. It was just after i prayed that the room be cleansed. It was an old appartment and i didn't feel the right presence. It was angry and tried to attack me. I could see it like it was broad daylight. Freaked me out! It was a dull light and turned into a defined skull. My body froze, starting from my legs to my head. It was as if i had no control over my body. Spirits can't take your soul unless you are covered by the blood of Christ. They can only scar the living daylight of you but can not harm you.
