Delving into the Language of Sleep: NREM and REM Cycles
Our adventures through slumber aren't a single, uniform experience. Instead, sleep cycles between two primary epochs: Non-Rapid Eye Movement (NREM) and Rapid Eye Movement (REM). These alternating states each possess individual properties. NREM sleep, the foundation of our nightly rest, is further categorized into three levels: N1, N2, and N3.
