Is there a way to die peacefully?

Some people die in their sleep without any trauma or traumatic reaction whatsoever. Freezing to death is about as easy a way to go when you're not asleep. You are cold for a while, then you go numb, and then go to sleep and drift off. There aren't much better deals around. Also, I heard that there is this type of medicine that they use on patients who are suffering pain. It is like the same as falling asleep.


Why do parts of your body fall asleep?

When you sit on your foot, you temporarily compress, or squash, the nerves in that area. These nerves can't send messages back to the brain normally, and so for the moment, the connection is cut off and you don't feel anything. After you stand up or uncross your legs your nerves are no longer compressed, and your feeling comes back again. It might feel a bit tingly as this happens, like pins and needles. It may even hurt a little, but it only lasts a few seconds as the connection returns to normal, so it won't hurt your body. Everyone has a foot fall asleep once in a while, and it's rare for it to mean there is something wrong with your body. If you want to keep your feet awake and kicking, don't sit on them or put them in other positions where you could compress your nerves.

When sitting down and foot goes to sleep is it because you pinched a nerve?

It's possible, but a pinched nerve generally causes severe pain rather than a foot falling asleep. More than likely the foot is falling asleep due to restricted blood flow. If when you stand back up or move your foot gets a flush feeling followed by the pins and needles feeling, it is blood circulation returning to normal.
