I know this from experience, I've actually had my abs contract and displace me almost an inch. I wasn't going to sleep, but I was laying down and relatively still. Most people, sadly, are not aware of this energy and that's why they think it's "random".
That does not explain how we get too much energy when sleeping, and after thinking about it for twenty minutes, here's the working explanation I formulated. I think everything that exists is energy in one form or another. Energy has a wavelength, thus it vibrates. When we walk around and move through out the day, the vibrations move too. Think of it as swimming in a pool, it creates waves and turbulence. Once you get out and leave the pool undisturbed, the pool will go back to it's calm conditions. This would be when we lay down at night.
I also believe that all energy that exists is just one giant unified pool, what the theists would call God. If we lay still long enough, the pool of energy around us calms down. Then, we are free to restore our vibrational rate back to it's higher natural frequencies. I believe the healthier parts of us vibrate faster. Since temperature measures the rate of vibration of molecules, you can test this out with something warm. See if moving it down cools it off. If you light a candle, and walk around with it, and you will see the flame is obviously disturbed from it's natural resting state. Theoretically, if the candle moves too fast, it will get relatively "too cold" and extinguish. I think that's why we naturally flail our hands when we burn it.
Edit(s):
Here's a recap of a tested experiment, that you can recreate, to verify/disprove we are in a pool of energy. Forgive me for being non-descript. Using electric power, a motor caused an object to rotate in a circle until it was at a uniform speed. The scientists stopped the motor, then the rotating object. They immediately started the motor again, and found it only took 1/10 as much energy to get it back to the same rotational speed. Then they turned off power to the motor and stopped the spinning object, waiting 60 seconds for the "pool of energy" to calm down, and redid the experiment a third time to find the same results as the first time.
