The Science Behind Sleep Paralysis: Myths vs. Reality
Imagine waking up in the middle of the night. Your eyes are open, you can see your room, maybe even the shadow of a chair in the corner. But when you try to move, nothing happens. You feel pinned down. Your chest feels heavy. Sometimes, you might even see or sense a dark figure standing nearby. It feels real, terrifyingly real.

S-Day September 19
Over the past few months, I have struggled to focus on writing. After two trips to Europe in early summer, I finally wore out the remaining cartilage in my left knee. The meniscus had torn years earlier. The X-ray and MRI images showed that my ACL was destroyed. I had compensated by constantly tightening my thigh muscles, which added extra strain to the connecting ligaments. The left hip was replaced in 2016. That strain probably added to issues with the left knee.

Eyes Closed, World Open: How Inner Vision Enhances Awareness
Our eyes are constantly open, scanning, processing, and filtering streams of information. Yet there is another form of awareness—quieter, subtler, but just as profound—that begins the moment we close our eyes. This shift from outer vision to inner vision does not shrink our world; it expands it. When the visual field goes dark, other senses awaken, and the mind finds new space to notice what was always present but often overlooked.
