Case No.194 - A "Housewife" said (in litt., Oct. 5, 1960):

I had a peculiar experience some years ago. I was lying in bed, having just woken up from a good night's sleep.  I was staring at the ceiling. Suddenly I was floating with – my nose almost touching the ceiling - I saw all the little imperfections in the distemper.

I could not move my body and breathing was very difficult. I was frightened and, by an effort of extreme concentration, was able to get back into my body which was still in the bed.

This was not a dream: I had my eyes open all the time. Other slightly peculiar things have happened to me ... which I have always dismissed as the result of too much imagination, but reading other people's experiences makes me wonder if I should think a little more deeply about the things that happened to me.
