Fear not the old Hag; The "Rememdy"

[SKA]

I keep reading about people being terrified of "the old hag" AKA sleep paralysis. You wake up mentally, but your body is still paralysed: asleep. You want to sit up, but your body refuses to coöperate and listen to your mind; It remains motionless. This often leads to feelings of not being able to breathe and pressure on one's chest. One night, a long time ago, I encountered Olg Hag ( Like I have many times ) and got terrified again briefly, trying to fight it and to sit up in bed. Then I realised "oh this is just Old Hag; freaky but it won't kill me" and with that thought I decided to just relax, let Old hag be and go back to sleep. This worked, cause Old hag is nothing but a Dream. trying to fight it is like trying to fight the wind: useless. Instead of trying desperately to wake up your body with your awakened mind, let your mind fall back asleep with your sleeping body. This is the only way, of "defeating" Old Hag. You could even just realise Old Hag won't kill you and not to fear it and cease the oppertunity to start a Lucid Dream/OOBE from there, rather than to see it as something dreadfull to be feared. Just realised I'd do a whole lot of good for many people if I shared this with them.
