What is sleep paralysis?

Make sure you pay attention to sleep hygiene.
Too much alcohol/drugs,
side-effects to prescription drugs,
sleep deprivation--
can add to this.

* Fears, Directly Face and Unmask it!!
{psychological, mental, psychic}
"I had this feeling like someone was behind me, trying to kill me."

Heard an author-lecturer speaking on how to work with 'dreams'.
He told a story about his own challenge once. Was having repetitive dreams where he wound up being chased by something that he assumed wanted to capture and do harm to him.

One night, he 'decided' he was going to STOP running, TURN around, and ASK them what they WANTED from him?

Turns out, they wanted to give him an important message!, which helped him.

Don't run from it. Confront!

If you want---
You can even go back to this dream place, by using reverie, in a meditative state. Directly ASK the person what they want. Have a Dialogue!
You can write this dialogue down on paper too.

* Spiritual Protection, Spiritual Warfare
Don't know if you pray or not?
Before you go to bed in the next nights, your could start having some spirituality time. Call upon protections by 'holy' and The Sacred... If you're not practicing anything now, then go-back to the spirituality practices you were exposed to as a Child.

Raise your vibration.
Imagine and Bathe in Sacred Light.
Turn your room into a holy sanctuary and get in-touch with God.
Spend time in devotional Communion with God.
Keep going with it, even if you are 'not feeling it' at first.
ACT as though you ARE being heard, and Received and Loved.

Thicken that spiritual atmosphere.
Play spiritual uplifting devotional songs.
You can burn incense,
light candles {dispersing the darkness}.
Place Holy Book, Holy sacred objects, close to your bed, or body.
Pray prayers, use light touch of oil you pray over; anoint and seal the orifices of each sense you have {even 3rd eye}, the palms of your hands, touch the soles of your feet.

Ask Angels to surround you,
Build a hedge of Protection from darkness.

"If" you had recently somehow opened any negative portal {spiritually dark}, then spiritually announce it Closed, Broken, and Sealed.
Return any evil intentions sent towards you, back to its source, not to return again.
Have the Angels surround you.

Speak Peace over your soul,
over your life, over your friends and acquaintances-- physical or virtual.
Send Gratitude and Blessings.

Know that your atmosphere IS influenced by what you think, what you say, and what you pray into it.

Lift your Atmosphere.
Count on, Ask God to assist you.

Sacred Prayer and Song

The God of Angel Armies*
I shall not fear the arrow by day
Nor shall I fear the terror by night
The God who governs angel armies
Has set encampments around me--
Whom shall I fear?

I shall not fear the arrow by day
Nor shall I fear the terror by night
The God who governs angel armies
Has set encampments around me--
'What'.. shall I fear?

I am not Afraid! All is Well, All is Well!!

"An Evening Prayer"

When at night I go to sleep
Fourteen angels watch To Keep --
.. Two, my head are Guarding
.. Two, my feet are Guiding
.. Two, are on my right hand--
.. Two, are on my left hand--
Two-- who warmly Cover
Two-- who o'er me Hover
Two to whom 'tis given...
To Guide my steps to Heaven.

Real Experience
Night-time astral attack

I recall a time around the 1990's when there was an astral spiritual-attack hovering and oppressing a certain wide geographic region where I lived at the time.

Myself--
One week, for a number of nights in a row, I had these horrible dreamtime/visitations of a hideous animal-like demoncreature that would wait until I fell all the way asleep, then in a kind of 'lucid' perception, I was aware it would enter my room out-of-blackness of the hallway, and began hurting violating my body pretty badly. Felt no control--- until I heard an angel give me 'specific-words' to pray.

After that, the presence persisted a while, but attacks had stopped. The offender was NOT entering my bedroom from that point on.

A time later,
while I had been working for a church admin
during that period of time,

I happened to catch a hallway side-conversation between visiting pastors.

One was talking about an intense spiritual attack that had been going on. He described a demoncreature entering his room while he slept, and attacking his body. The pastor knew several other pastors this had happened to also.

Eventually, the black cloud that had hung over the wide geographic area was cleared from the atmosphere.

I didn't enter their conversation, but definitely identified the point when this all ended. I felt the same relief clarity and peace in the astral realms, coinciding with the time the pastors referenced.

So... at LL ---

Because of my experience,
when others report those kinds of sleep-realm disturbances,
I never take those lightly. Harassments are real.

And,
"because" Christianity has been my training and life-long practice {I'm an elderly woman now},
my instant default 'toolset' whenever there's an intuitive-sense of something 'off'/not-right, IS going to be those from my training plus practical experience using it during episodes of my life.

What Worked?
The way I got that creaturedemon to STOP attacking my body, was devotional prayer and directly asking God's help.

When I fell asleep and the attacker came back into the room once more, I was aware of being in a kind of 'paralyzed semi-lucid state'.

Couldn't move. Couldn't wake-up all the way.

THEN, I "heard" an Angel clearly grounded-ly say to me, to Command it to leave....

It was a struggle to bring self to 'use' my voice, but I did it... while still under sleep-state.

I 'commanded' for it to STOP, in the 'Name' of Jesus.
INSTANTLY!!! the thing left.
There was such solid absolute peace around me.

I believe the Angels took over and did the rest... I still hadn't awakened all the way. I felt a sense of being completely safe.

From THAT night on-- the entity remained at a distance, and never-again crossed over the threshold of my bedroom door.

The "general" astral attack was quelled over the area.

Afterwards, I found an article written in a Christian magazine about this. The dark presence had oppressed a wide geographic area covering certain areas {small portion} of US.

Months after the event, while I was driving to work I heard an obscure radio-pastor who described this phenomenon.
{Quite surreal.}

Was around 1990.

Personally?

At the end of all that, what I learned is the spiritual duty to pray-- for self, AND the collective. And, that we have access to benefic angel forces.

Each person, with any kind of spiritual awareness --
no matter what belief system is practiced --
can assist the atmosphere by doing your spiritual part.

We have the tools.
We are spiritually-astrally Effective.

Covering. For self, AND Other.

Over the years, we've had persons in other threads mention that experience. Watching the vid will arm you with more knowledge.

He mentions shamanism too. Touched into the supernatural for a slight moment.
But the main focus is the medical/physical brain science behind it.

So basically.... back to Travelman,
there's something 'on the back of his mind' {in back of him} bothering him. Wants his attention. Has to spend some time, to stop what he's doing in busy-life, and do an inventory. Needs to pay attention to what he's been ignoring. Something is 'coming up' to be dealt with, or heeded.

That's why unique strong things present themselves as our conscious-mind puts itself in the off-position. Conscious mind pays attention to what it needs, and is not aware of 'other' needs coming up to surface.

Nightmares?
The psyche feels in trouble and is really screaming for attention. There can also be a 'physical' component to it-- health.

Some people have had physical or psychological trauma in their life-- nightmares can be from those experiences coming up for processing. Something on the outside triggered it, or, it was just READY to come up for healing and resolution.

Doctors have also determined that nightmares can be a SIDE-effect of some of the pharmaceutical drugs on the market right now. There are side-effect drugs that can help those symptoms.

Sheesh.. People don't realize the POWER some of those chemicals/drugs/meds have on our systems when introduced into the body. Can be like a jolt! And some folks are so 'used' to it, they don't realize it.

Hope Travelman comes back! Did I scare him away???

Nah. He's pretty cool.

One of the underlying thoughts I had had about what that unknown could be (for everyone actually) is the Covid-19 fears? a well as worry about finances.

Yes, back. Sorry, feeling blue these days, really fell too fast and hard for this one woman and not sure what will happen, but feeling like we might miss the chance at something really cool. We told each other we had feelings, felt attraction, deep connection, etc. but there seems to be something causing it not to take off. I went out a ton this weekend to try to get my mind off of it but it still remains. Being unsure stinks.

"One of the underlying thoughts I had had about what that unknown could be (for everyone actually) is the Covid-19 fears? a well as worry about finances."

----------I tend to try and remind myself not to worry about things I have no control over. Covid 19, I think, it beyond my control for the most part, other than just social distancing and washing my hands and stuff like that, so no anxiety there.

Yeah.. You're going to have to slow down, and take look at 'what' that is.

Maybe do some creative writing--
talk to it

ADDING--
You've been writing something on the lines of Sci-Fi? Creative worlds.
