Sleep plays a very important role in our daily lives! But do you know what happens after you sleep? We think that our body and mind is on rest mode, but after we are fast asleep, our body does some of the most crazy and weird things that we cannot even imagine! If you setup a camera before you sleep and next day morning checkout the footage, you will find it so hilarious as to what all you have been doing at night!
Curious?! Well, we have got you covered with some of the most amazing things your body does that are weird and crazy, even though you are in the zoned out mood, that’s when your body is in the active mood of piecing your dreams together, to slowing down your kidneys! Scroll through to checkout some of the amazing things it does that you dint even expect.
1) Feeling Like Your Falling Off
Have you ever had these dreams where you feel that you are falling from a cliff or from your bed?! Well, they are not your dreams but they are a natural process of your body falling asleep. They are called Hypnagogic jerks and this happens only when you are too tired or stressed and it is completely normal and harmless. It causes your limbs to jerk that’s the reason we feel like we are falling from a height!
2) Kidneys Slow Down
We all know that the kidneys function to filter the toxins from your bloodstream and produces urine, but after you sleep, the process becomes slow. Have you ever noticed when you wake up in the morning to pee first, your urine is usually dark color. That’s because your organs function at a slow pace.

Many times we have heard from our family or friends telling us that we were sleep talking at night while we were asleep. This process usually happens between the first two hours of your sleep, when your body is entering the stages of sleep, but there is still energy left in your muscle tone to produce sound and movement!
4) Eye Movement

Have you ever had these vivid images or pieces of your dreams that seem to occur regularly? Many times when we wake up in the morning we don’t remember what our dream was and we also tend to remember only bits of a specific incident. We get these recurring dreams because there are some psychological issues that our brain is trying to resolve and that is the reason, we have repetitive dreams.
