Sleep Paralysis; Demon in the Bedroom

I remember vividly a conversation I had with a friend of mine some time ago, about a similar scary or frightening experience we both had at different nights. I cannot recall the details of our conversation but I know we ended attributing this experience we had at night to some evil powerful force, to cut short we termed it a spiritual Attack.

Subsequently, I came to discover that this assumed spiritual attack happens to over 1.5 million Nigerians each Year and is not what we felt it was. This assumed spiritual attack is what we know today as Sleep Paralysis, a case similar to narcolepsy (neurological condition).

Sleep Paralysis, a temporary inability to move or speak while falling asleep or upon waking, episodes last from a few seconds to minutes while consciously Awake. Sleep Paralysis most often occur with people who have narcolepsy or sleep apnea, but it can affect anyone. It is usually Self-treatable and self diagnosable (using the above definition).

Most of us might be asking ourselves what causes or triggers this condition, forgetting that it is more likely to occur during adolescence. Irrespective of that, conditions that trigger sleep Paralysis might be stress, sleep deprivation or panic disorder. Sleep Paralysis cannot directly cause death, the experience itself is scary but it cannot just randomly stop your heart from functioning.

The main treatment for sleep Paralysis is improved sleep habit (sleep hygiene) which includes going to bed at the same time every night, ensuring a comfortable sleep environment, an environment that is free from noise and distraction, other preventive measures include avoid the intake of caffeine before going to bed and avoid Television before bedtime.

With this, we hope you’ll be informed about this demon in the bedroom and ways to prevent it.

Criticism; the Dream Killer

How many times have you stopped yourself from doing something because you’re scared of how people will react?
How many times have people’s opinion and criticism stopped you from doing what you believe in?
How many times have people’s perspectives or perception stopped you from living your potentials?

We all feel that failure, rejection and people kill dream, yes they do but there are four words that have killed mores and dreams than failure, rejection and anyone in the World. These four words are “What Will People Say” These four words when said in our hearts or head kills dreams faster than the aforementioned.

No matter what we choose to do there will always be people to find faults or complain about it. It is absurd that we give up what we want to be in life because of people’s opinion. The aching part is if we are living for other people’s opinion we will never be right. There will always be someone with something they will never agree with. This is why it is important to work with our convictions and what matters to us.

Aristotle one said “ the three ways to avoid criticism is Do Nothing, Say Nothing and Be Nothing” and am sure we don’t want that to happen to our future. If we can’t afford a Do-Nothing or Be-Nothing future, we have to Do-Something to Be-Something.

So don’t let anyone’s Opinion stop You, Don’t let anyone’s Criticism hold You back. Keep Following Your Passion. Invest in what You believe in.
Remember don’t let People’s Compliment get to your head; and don’t let people’s Criticism get to your Heart.
