What's REM Sleep - How Much Do You Need?

REM sleep may be the most fascinating and well-studied phase of sleep. Non-REM refers to the minimal eye movements of the first three stages of sleep, while #REM refers to the rapid eye movements characteristic of the fourth and final stage of sleep.
Note: The content on Sleepopolis is meant to be informative in nature, but it shouldn’t take the place of medical advice and supervision from a trained professional. If you feel you may be suffering from any sleep disorder or medical condition, please see your healthcare provider immediately.
Our understanding of sleep and dreams took a significant step forward with the discovery of rapid eye movement sleep in 1951. Researchers discovered that not only do the eyes move during #REMsleep, but the brain is nearly as active as it is while awake. Marked shifts occur in the brain and body during REM, heralding a stage entirely unlike the other three stages of sleep.

I had no idea that the reason why we are technically paralyzed, or our bodies shut down for sleep and regeneration...is also so we dont act out dreams and hurt ourselves and others. SO interesting! Thank you for all the great knowledge!

I found it fascinating that our muscles go "off-line" during REM sleep(Rematonia) so that we do not act out our dreams during the night. I had no idea about this.

@@nordiindo7021 any dream can turn lucid. You jus need your brain to become aware that it's in a dream. Once you're aware you're in a dream is when you lucid dream. So things like reality checks and practicing those throughout the day so that your brain could do them during a dream and you would understand you're in a dream. Try sleep and wake up about 5 hours in and stay up for 30 minutes doing a quiet activity such as reading. Go back to sleep but close your eyes while trying to stay conscious about yourself your surroundings and what you want to dream about.

Exactly the same. I enter lucid most likely and for rest I sleep but can tell anything that passes by . Last night my mother had gently touched my ankle and I fully woke up in cry. But the fact also is I encounter certain feelings in my room when I actually try to sleep. I feel presence sometimes. Nd then in dreams I have had a weird pattern.. I see houses which are mine nd different ones can never tell locations because I am in but I know it's mine. These are houses I never saw in real life😨. Nd for sometime saw a man who only scares in present house in day light but no one can see him because everyone becomes very slow to process or keep a foot next

There are some studies done on this but no one knows why people get this condition. I didn't know about the disconnect between the brain and muscles during REM.

I had to wrestle him back into the chair so he wouldn't hurt himself and my sister said that he must have been really tired because he hadn't done that in years. At least now I know what might have caused that behavior.

Hey, I’m 16 years old and I have insomnia. I have this problem more than 2 and half years now and it’s still increasing. Sometimes I don’t know when it’s already morning but I feel like I haven’t slept at all and my mood gets so frustrated and irritated and also I feel weak, and sometimes I couldn’t fall asleep so I stay all morning. I’m a sportsman so I really need recovery so please help me and I have so many things to say about this sleep thing.

Try meditation 10 min preferably before sleep and unwind before going to sleep that is 30 or 40 min before sleep try not to touch your mobile or watch somethings that excites you(also use blue light filter on your mobile) and try not to eat dinner close to bedtime (preferably 2 hrs gap) .Lastly dim your lights/turn off in your room 30 or 20 mins before sleep and make your room cold.

I want ask a question. I am a binge alcoholic for a decade. Whenever I try to stop drinking, on that very night, I go through REM sleep a lot. Which is frightening. Mostly appears just after few hours from going to bed. Sleep paralysis is also associated. Is it going to be harmful for me as I feel very depressed and on anxiety on the next morning. Thanks.

Is the muscle paralysis that we experience in REM sleep only a human attribute? I watch my cat sleep and they look like they are trying to catch something. The paws move, their facial muscles twitch, and they sometimes chatter. Or is all of that during a dream in non-REM?

If you don't think you dream or maybe it's just that you don't remember your dreams, does it mean you not having enough rem?

How shall I enter the REM stage quickly, so that I may require less sleep ?

@Sleepopolis 4 жыл бұрын

Unfortunately, because REM sleep is the last stage of sleep, there is no way to enter it more quickly. You can encourage healthier REM sleep by reducing or eliminating behaviors that suppress it, such as consuming alcohol and other substances such as opioids and cannabis, being exposed to excess light during sleep, shift work, and jet lag.
