Basically, your brain is fully awake but your body is still in deep rem sleep.

It freaks you out the first time because when you float over your body you look dead. I thought I had died when I was a child. It used to happen all the time. My son has never experienced this but it was when I was about his age it started with me. I never really knew why it happened and didn't know exactly what it was until I read that book as an adult. I was raised in a very christian home and my mother made this whole experience even scarier than it was because of her beliefs.
