Sleep paralysis

Yet co-sleeping is not entirely risk free. While the general act of co-sleeping is not dangerous, there are a variety of factors that can make it dangerous and even life threatening for an infant. In many cases these risks are written too broadly in an attempt to discourage parents from performing co-sleeping in any form. However, explaining to parents the detailed risks of co-sleeping would save more lives than broadly discouraging the behavior entirely, and allows parents to make more informed…

early start times, usually around 7:25, making it hard for adolescents to stay awake and focus in classes- and there has been a significant drop in grades to prove it. The sleep deprivation amongst teens becomes dangerous in the sense that teenagers sixteen years old and up begin to drive into school, and driving while sleep deprived is proven to be just as dangerous as driving while intoxicated. While schools are mostly based off standardized testing, missing or falling asleep in class could…

In recent years I’ve come to terms with the fact that I need at least 8 hours of sleep to be able to function normally during the day and ideally between 9 and 10 to feel fully rested and energised all day. On average, in the past six days I got 8.8 hours of sleep, one night I only got 7.5 hours, the lowest in my recording, and the most I got was 10 hours. The night I was able to sleep for 10 hours (9/23), I felt fairly happy, not stressed, and quite energized even though I was fairly anxious…

When I was ten years old, my mother and I went on a month long trip to Quito, Ecuador to visit my father and other family. One day my abuelo (my grandfather) told my mom and I that he was going to take us on a trip to the edge of the Amazon rainforest. Although this probably sounds really interesting, I was against this trip from the first mention of it. However, since I was ten, my objection meant nothing and the trip happened as planned. We got up very early the day of the trip, a factor…

first-hand experience that one of our most common mistakes when caring for our brains is depriving it of a proper night 's sleep. Between assignments, social lives, and all of college’s other responsibilities who really…

Sylvia Plath has written poetry that fully explores the profound depth of the human psyche. Through her use of confessional poetry and psychic landscape, her poetry delves into the multifaceted layers of the human condition. Plath herself came across as a very complicated and perplexing individual, and in her style of writing, she conveys the inner state of her mind. To read her poetry without the context of her mental state, few readers could comprehend the intensity and compelling suffering…

generally had, there was no sauce and a miniature amount of cheese. When we reached our part of the city we were congratulated on coming safely. It was my grandma’s house that we stayed in, it was immense, with about 4 rooms and a roof that you could sleep on. There were about 6 people already living there so including us 10. We stayed there for a month before our relatives came, almost all of the family was there. We had a stunning time, we went to the mountain (with no snow), and the zoo…

wood (Kashtha-Mauna) Deep-sleep silence (Sushupti Mauna) Great silence (Maha- Mauna) Not uttering a single word means silence of speech (Vak-Mauna) and not even hearing one’s own speech is silence of hearing (Karna Mauna) Remaining still akin to wood without any expression, gestures etc. (In reality, more energy is wasted in responding by nodding, gesturing or saying ‘hum, hum’ than in speaking) The silence in deep sleep One who has gone beyond speech and thought.

“Come on girls wake up!” My first instinct was to pull the covers over my head, turn the other way, and get up in ten minutes. When I reached for my blanket I remembered, I was in a sleeping bag in a tent on camp Pendleton, seven hours away from a sand-free warm bed. There was a quiet pause for a few seconds where you could hear the soothing sound of the waves nearby before my friends started to wake. Next to me Mackenzie groaned and yelped in pain. “Sister Jarvis, could I have the aloe?” She…
