How Sleep Cycles Work

Sleep Architecture

Sleep consists of 90-minute cycles through light, deep, and REM sleep stages. Waking between cycles feels natural.

Optimal Duration

Most adults need 7-9 hours of sleep (5-6 complete cycles). Quality matters as much as quantity.

Wake Up Refreshed

Waking at the end of a sleep cycle prevents sleep inertia (morning grogginess) and improves alertness.

Consistency Matters

Going to bed and waking up at consistent times helps regulate your body's internal clock.

Circadian Rhythm

Your body's natural sleep-wake cycle responds to light and darkness. Respect it for better sleep.

Health Benefits

Quality sleep improves immunity, mental health, and reduces risk of chronic diseases.
