Since the knowledge, based on brain waves, sleep is divided into four phases. Phase is the phase of light sleep (we are still semi-conscious), the lower levels, deep sleep and REM. At this point, that dreams occur.

If the condition of the body is too tired or too little sleep, brain waves do not have to follow the phases of sleep should be. So, from one conscious state (while he was asleep) for the phase of light sleep, then immediately into a dream (REM).

If the brain is suddenly awakened from REM sleep, but the body is not here, where sleep paralysis occurs. We are aware, but could not move the body. In addition, the hallucinations appeared another figure, which is actually a function of the dream.
