REM is the period of sleep that is associated with dreaming. If during the time that you are experiencing a dream and you are suddenly woken up then you will experience REM sleep paralysis. The paralysis sets in because the transition from being totally asleep to being fully awake is a gradual process. When the disruption is sudden the speed with which the body and the brain reacts is not the same and you are likely to experience the paralysis.
Why does it occur when you are having dreams? The reason for this is that a dream is not a threat to you physically. When the brain is immediately awake in the middle of a dream you are actually trying to physically respond to something that is not there and the body goes into a state of paralysis. I’m sure you can appreciate the harm we do to ourselves and others if we could react to the things that we see in our dreams.
