I have a weird experience sometimes when waking up. It's not sleep paralysis, at least I don't think so, it feels more like a deep meditation.
The only way to describe it is that I (my mind) is working at two different levels. At one I am dreaming or thinking of something and at another level I am observing the dreams of the first "I".
Really hard to explain. Does anyone else have this happen or know the phenomenon?
- joveian 6y agoI think I've had something similar a number of times, like daydreaming while another part of me is disengaged, although in my case not really observing in any active sense just half asleep in a different way :/. I think this may be related to altered thalamus activity (less relaying) during sleep and meditation.

- lowdest 6y agoYes, I've had this experience while awake through meditation.
