Heightened awareness after day-time naps.

Does anyone else have a higher state of consciousness after taking day-time naps? EVERY nap i have during the day, I wake up feeling like I'm in between reality and... what I imagine astral projection would feel like. I feel SO much more aware of my spirit and I am just kind of "present" but not participative in my body's actions (talking to someone, walking...). I would like some kind of explanation for this and I would LOVE people to talk about similar experiences... I'm 15.

That happens to me too, if I understand what you're describing. It's as if my body is still slightly asleep and my eyes are a bit hard to keep open, but I'm very aware of what's around me.

Yes... it's like were still half-asleep but more observing than when we are fully awake.

Wow. I was thinking about it yesterday.
For me (it don't happens everytime I nap), what happen is something that feels like if I lost the track of reality, literally forgot about my existence or something, and when I wake up I feel sort of the way you described.

It's almost like our spirit leaves our body to some place outside time for an eternity but when we wake up, it comes back... well that's one theory =).

YES ! That's what I was trying to say, but didn't knew how. That is the feeling, the time passed and you forgot reality or something. The feeling of thing looking unfamiliar don't really happens to me, but the other one happens usually at some naps, not always. But it's a really odd feeling.
