While experimenting in a bit of "near SP", where your body is asleep except for the ears, as well as the eyes, which [ears] are always the last thing to go for me, even after my eyes, at least that's how I describe near-SP... I noticed something interesting.
I began to picture myself falling through my bed to help take my mind off of external noises, and I noticed that, while my eyes and ears were still functioning as part of my physical body, I felt extremely recognizable sensations of euphoria in my back, as if my blood flow had been stimulated there. It seemed odd, so, while I was still slightly outside of full SP, I imagined falling forward, and sure enough the blood flow transferred, or at least nerve tinglings and heaviness, shifted to my chest and front of my legs and arms. I did the same thing on my side, and again it shifted all of the heaviness and tingling to my side.
I also found that if I imagined myself spinning around and around quickly while free-falling, I began to feel extremely dizzy as if I were really spinning.
This brings me to the question, does the body do this while fully asleep, (meaning that while we experience senses (touch) in our dreams, do our nerves really stimulate in this way?) I have little to no background on sleep-walking, but if anyone knows about it, is this the explanation for it? If the "paralysis" isn't there, but the body-asleep part is, it seems like that's exactly what happens.
(Sorry for the length, but I found this interesting. I'd also like to know if anyone else has tried this or experienced it. It's very strange when first noticed.)
