In this first installment, we'll be discussing sleep paralysis: what causes it and how it affects the body.
第一期，我们将讨论睡眠麻痹症：睡眠麻痹是由何引起又会对我们身体产生哪些影响呢？
Sleep paralysis is a feeling of being conscious but unable to move.
睡眠麻痹症是一种明明有意识却无法动弹的感觉p|=).%Se8M+5+m。
It occurs when a person passes between stages of wakefulness and sleep.

In the Philippines, sleep paralysis is often referred to as the “bangungot”,
在菲律宾，睡眠麻痹症常被称为“睡眠中的呻吟”，
and some folklore has even suggested that people have died from this.
民间甚至传说，人们因此丧命0W|U*S]16#hU+yob^@oO。
Sleep paralysis happens during REM sleep, when the body is temporarily immobilized.
睡眠麻痹症发生于快速眼动睡眠的过程中，这时身体会暂时被固定住QdnX^DS.~GVFw。
This immobilization occurs as a natural way to prevent us from acting out our dreams and potentially injuring ourselves,
这种身体的固定是为了防止我们表现出梦境并阻止我们伤害自己的一种自然方式9Es28IXOc^L。
but the paralysis normally goes away once the body is roused when we awaken.
但是一旦当我们醒来，身体也跟着苏醒后，麻痹通常就会消失7Soz]B]VVKOuw5X~4。
When experiencing sleep paralysis, however, the mind wakes up often several minutes before the body does,
当遭遇睡眠麻痹时，首先苏醒的是我们的意识，几分钟后身体才会苏醒+2](o-22c.d~W,l01^_%。
and thus, the body is still paralyzed despite the mind being fully conscious.
因此，虽然意识已经完全清醒，但是身体仍然麻痹.dw8tvNrL,Ck=05G]bP=。
The experience can be terrifying, and it often coincides with sleep hallucinations,
这种体验很可怕，当遭遇睡眠麻痹时，还会产生幻觉，

Also commonly associated with the experience are the feelings of being crushed or choked.
与这种体验相关联还有身体被压住或是窒息的感觉GzdNRm.)Ct]。
These sensations have given sleep paralysis a firm place in the world of paranormal folklore, and also in the world of alien mythology.
这些体验感也使睡眠麻痹症在超自然民间传说和外星人神话世界占据了稳定地位k9pGQPc=J0&xc。
So, why do we experience sleep paralysis?
那么，在睡眠麻痹时，我们究竟遭遇了什么呢？
Well, many people have experienced sleep paralysis at some point in their lives,
许多人都经历过睡眠麻痹，
and it can sometimes be triggered by sleep deprivation, anxiety, depression, or even certain kinds of medications..
睡眠麻痹可能是由睡眠剥夺、焦虑、沮丧或是某种药物所引起的m]Tg9ff5FFu,U9n@Pib。
The key to dealing with it when it does occur though is to not fight it,
当遭遇睡眠麻痹时，应对的关键并不是与它对抗，
and instead try to relax and take slow controlled breaths.
而是尝试放松自己，放松呼吸2slx65|[=JYF@9K。
Then, while remaining calm, attempting to move the extremities,
然后保持镇定，试着活动四肢，
such as toes or fingers can often do the trick, as the feeling of paralysis is often less prevalent in these parts of body.
比如，通常可以活动脚趾或手指，因为麻痹的感觉在这些部位并不是很严重*wptVjGWsuqRW|Y8Z。
