Stages of Sleep

Every night, without fail, people across the world climb into their beds and shut down for hours. During sleep, the body moves through different stages of both REM (rapid eye movement) and NREM (non-rapid eye movement) sleep. Each stage of sleep serves a unique restorative function, including muscle recovery, hormone regulation, and memory consolidation, making it essential to allow enough time to cycle through all sleep stages. Understanding how sleep cycles work is important in order to maintain a healthy mind and body.

  1. Stages of Sleep Ever wake up in the morning and feel like you barely slept at all?  We’ve all been there.  Many factors could contribute to this, but at the end of the day, it’s most likely that you just never got deep enough into the stages of sleep for your body and brain to recuperate. Understanding Sleep Cycle Don’t let the closed eyes and placid expression of someone sleeping fool you—plenty of activity is going on during those sleeping hours. Once we settle in beneath the covers, not only are there five distinct stages of sleep happening, but the stages repeat themselves throughout the night. Stages of Sleep Stage One: This NREM stage features the lightest phase of sleep. Stage Two: During this stage, eye movement stops and slow waves, known as theta, ensue. Stages Three and Four: During these deep stages of sleep, awakenings rarely occur, and when arousing someone in this phase they will appear groggy and disoriented.
