How to induce sleep paralysis for Void State & Shifting? by Hélèn.
((read this until the end. im not gonna answer desperate cryings from the asks cuz this is the MOST detailed SP post of mine. 🙂🥱))
hey Ladies & Gentlemen. Today im presenting to uou; how to induce sleep paralysis 100% foolproof method (sounds just like a telecommerical lmao) from a certified insomniac. (im awake for so long that i legit started to see furnitures moving) This actually wanted by an anon from my ask but to the guy/girl who sent me that..uh..i accidentally deleted your ask but donr you worry, youre looking at what youve asked for! So yeah long story short, these are foolproof CAUSE youre actually using your BIOCHEMISTRY as a pretty little human being and learn why these work. Let me introduce you to a few new terms, if youre unfamiliar with sleep cycles, sleep hormones, and othe biologic mechanisms. ive done my search well, as always. 😩😮💨😽🫦
First of all, theres something called a ''REM debt''. So you might ask me, ''Helene, tf is a rem?'' well, it stands for ''Rapid Eye Movement.'' Aka, a stage of sleep. It's the stage of sleep where ur eyes move rapidly, even when closed, and the brain is most active. You experience almost all of ur dreams during this stage. The brain processes, organizes, and stores info you learnt during the day in this phase. Etc etc. so for short, its what we call a regular sleep where you see ur dreams. Alright lets move onto the Rem debt again, its simple. Means you should get at least 2-3 hours of night sleep. Without WBTB, triggering this requires sliiiightly disrupting the brain and body's biochemical balance, particularly the melatonin and cortisol cycle. cuz u have to release these hormones.
Actually yeah, u can trigger this night time aka the first REM (not deep sleep, the actual dreaming phase) and it has a few ways. Firs lay down on a starfish (supine) position, and if u ask me why is ts position particularly? Pretty scientific. When u lie on your back, ur tongue is more likely to fall back, which can slightly hinder breathing. Your big beautiful brain perceives this slight shortness of breath as a "threat" and tries to wake you up suddenly. However, cuz ur body is in deep REM sleep, ur muscles remain locked, and you suddenly wake up in sleep paralysis. Et voilà. Also..the position might not be enough so..u should consider disrupting ur ''Circadian Rhythm'' and provide excessive fatigue.
The thing that leaves ur brain most helpless is the clash between ur excessively tired body and your overactive mind. Ruin your sleep schedule (worth it), sleeping very little during the week,, sleeping until noon on weekends, or constantly changing sleep schedules, etc etc, disrupts your circadian rhythm (aka what we call our biological clock). AND, when your bodys physically exhausted, ur brain may want to jump directly to the deepest stages or directly to REM the moment you lie down in bed (aka, ''REM rebound effect''). If your mind dosent completely shut down while the body locks up quickly, you may experience (hypnagogique) paralysis at the moment of falling asleep. These help you induce natural sleep paralysis 100%!!!!!
Aaaand the popular WILD technique yall probably heard of before. Ts is actually the first stage of the WILD (wake initiated lucid dream) technique, used to directly transition into lucid dreaming. The goal is to observe ur body falling asleep without ever losing consciousness. such a challange rigth? Lie on ur back, it's basically just keeping your body completely still while waiting for sleep to come. Focus on the shapes behind your eyelids or keep a steady rhythm in your mind (or count your breaths omg idk it works). Before falling asleep, ur body performs a "heyyy dude, are we awake?" test. Your nose may itch, you may feel the urge to swallow, or you may feel the urge to change position. You must completelyyyyy ignore all these urges and not move at all. If you do it, your body will fall asleep and lock the muscles, but your consciousness will remain awake. (GOLD STATEEEE)
i actually recommend staying up until the morning cuz like i said..YOUR REM DEBT!! you actually NEED that REM debt, but tyr not to go completely zombie. (i feel like a zomb rn) If u lack too much of sleep, your brain might force you into deep non REM sleep first to heal ur body, which we DONT want. We want that sweet lil REM Rebound state right away! (where lucid dreams and most of my shifting experiences happenned naturally) Your bodys biological clock releases melatonin in the evenings and cortisol (the wakey wakeyyyy / stress hormone) in the early mornings. The moments when these two hormones overlap are the most fertile ground for sleep paralysis.
tHATS EXACTLY WHY daytime naps could be IT! Its much easier to trigger sleep paralysis during a 30-45min nap in the afternoon (between like.. 2 to 4pm) or late afternoon, rather than at night. Cuz again, during the day, your cortisol and alertness levels are already high (its easy for the mind to stay awake), but ur body, exhausted from lack of sleep, quickly switches to sleep mode. While the mind says, "dawg i need to stay hormonally awake during the day," the body says, "no im leaving," and sleep paralysis occurs.
now, lastly. Its also a clever but a tad risky (guarantee sleep paralysis) ''method'': There are certain foods and habits that directly affect ur body chemistry and sharpen REM sleep....hell yeah..Heavy and carbohydrate /tryptophhan rich dinners. Eating something heavy, carbohydrate rich, or containing tryptophan (like bananas, dairy, turkey etc etc) 1,5-2hrs before bed creates a sudden sleep pressure. This quickly pulls your body down, making it difficult for the brain to truly fall into a deep and peaceful sleep because the digestive system is working. (evil laugh) Caffeine timing is also essential, folks, consuming it apprx 1,5-2hrs before bedtime makes it ''not fully eliminated from the body'' when u go to bed. Youre caught on that fine line between caffeine trying to keep ur mind awake and blocking adenosine receptors, and physical fatigue taking over and locking up your body.
Hope I didn't write any nonsense I'm dying out of sleeplessness and 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗵. 𝗶 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵. 𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗺𝗲 𝟮+𝗵𝗿𝘀. 𝗵𝗼𝗽𝗲 𝘆𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺. 𝗺𝗮𝗺𝗮 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗱🫰🏻🫰🏻
