About sleep stages
During sleep, the body and mind go through different sleep stages in order to maximize
both mental and physical recovery. In phases of deep sleep, the body repairs muscles and
tissues, boosts the immune system and stimulates physical growth and development.
REM
(rapid eye movement)
sleep is viewed by sleep experts to be an essential phase to fortify
memories, to boost mood, and to consolidate information received during the day.
Light
sleep
represents a phase of transition when falling asleep and between
deep sleep
and
REM sleep
.
