 All right, so we've got a question today from our buddy Priyanka and I hope I'm pronouncing that right and she says Hi, Stefan. I've always had doubts regarding this lucid dream What I'd like to ask is if the dream gets too scary and I experienced sleep paralysis How should I snap out of it? And if I can't wake up and the dream continues and what what happens? I would be glad if you can answer my question. So sleep paralysis as I've explained before is where your body paralyzes your muscles in Preparation for your sleep so that you don't act out your dreams physically and obviously injure yourself and others. That's the reason so When it starts to happen Your mind obviously will still be awake to some degree because otherwise you wouldn't know you're having sleep paralysis If that makes sense. So you're you're in some way consciously aware and your mind is awake so it really depends on what level of consciousness you're at if you're If you're just drifting off to sleep and you realize that you're starting to be paralyzed Then it's fairly easy to get out of sleep paralysis. You just Imagine getting out of sleep paralysis. You just sort of will yourself to move It's it's it's very easy to escape sleep paralysis When you're just at the beginning stages of sleep paralysis, but if you're at the middle to end stages of sleep paralysis where you're Closer to being asleep than being awake if that makes sense If imagine there was a scale where here you're awake here. You're asleep sleep paralysis is that scale and if you're Here for example, you're closer to being awake. So it's quite easy to escape if you're here then the paralyzed state is a stronger one so it's harder to escape and The dream will probably continue And so your question was if I can't wake up and the dream continues what happens? Well, you just experience the dream as normal Um, and hopefully if you keep your mind awake through the process You'll actually have a waking juice lucid dream, which as you may already know is One of the most common techniques for reducing a lucid dream You keep your mind awake while your body goes to sleep. So that's what will happen you will just experience a lucid dream or you'll fall asleep and Wake up the next morning and try again the next night for example So I hope that answers your question.
