Feigning Sleep Technique

This technique forces the user to fall asleep. However, since the user is left vulnerable, the enemy can wake the user up using a direct blow; the difficulty on how to wake the user up is dependent on how long they have fallen asleep.

Only Gaara has shown to know this technique, which he only used if he wished to release Shukaku's full power.
