Sleep stages are important because they allow the brain and body to recuperate and develop. Failure to obtain enough of both deep sleep and REM sleep may explain some of the profound consequences of insufficient sleep on thinking, emotions, and physical health. Sleepers who are frequently awoken during earlier stages, such as sleep apnea, may struggle to cycle into these deeper sleep stages properly. People with insomnia may not get enough total sleep to accumulate the needed time in each stage.
While you don’t have complete control of your sleep cycle, you can take steps to improve your chances of having a healthy progression through each sleep stage.
A critical step is to improve your sleep hygiene, which refers to your sleep environment (mattress, pillow etc.) and sleep-related habits. :
🌻 Opt for a silk pillowcase
🌻 More consistent sleep schedule
🌻 Getting natural daylight exposure
🌻 Avoiding alcohol before bedtime
🌻 Sleep before midnight to feel rested and refreshed
🌻 Eliminating noise and light disruptions (silk sleep mask)
🌻 Switch to pillows that suit your sleep style
Minor changes can help you get uninterrupted sleep and promote proper alignment of your circadian rhythm.
If you find that you have excessive daytime sleepiness or otherwise suspect that you might have a sleep disorder like sleep apnea, it’s essential to talk with a doctor who can most appropriately guide your care. Addressing underlying issues may pave the way for more complete and restorative sleep cycles.
