From my understanding the body is mostly paralyzed while sleeping to reduce the risk of injury from movements while sleeping and to stop sleep walking. Sleep paralysis happens when the mind wakes up but the body is still paralyzed. Typically people feel like they are being held down by someone and often have residual dream features in their perception.
