REM Sleep Mysteries

IN 1953, KLEITMAN AND ASERINSKY PUBLISHED a research paper that shattered how the world saw sleep. They described a bizarre phenomenon Aserinsky later labeled REM sleep: periods of rapid eye movements paired with wakefulness-like activity in the brain. Today we explore how researchers are cracking the code and unraveling the mysteries of REM sleep. This paper will first examine and bust some…

Uyku Evreleri

Uyku, vücudun dinlenmek, yenilenmek ve enerji depolamak için geçirdiği doğal bir fizyolojik süreçtir. Uyku süreci karmaşık bir şekilde düzenlenir ve farklı uyku aşamalarıyla karakterizedir. İşte uyku nasıl gerçekleşir:

Uyku Döngüleri: Uyku, döngüler halinde tekrarlanır. Her uyku döngüsü, yaklaşık 90-120 dakika sürer ve dört aşamadan oluşur: hafif uyku, derin uyku, daha derin uyku ve REM (Rapid Eye Movement - Hızlı Göz Hareketi) uyku.

Hafif Uyku: Uykunun başlangıcında hafif uyku aşamasına girilir. Vücut rahatlar, kalp atış hızı ve solunum yavaşlar. Kaslar gevşer ve göz hareketleri azalır. Hafif uyku aşamasında kolayca uyanabiliriz.

Derin Uyku: Hafif uyku aşamasından sonra derin uyku aşamasına geçilir. Derin uyku, dinlenmenin en yoğun olduğu aşamadır. Kaslar daha fazla gevşer, vücut sıcaklığı düşer ve beyin dalgaları yavaşlar. Derin uyku, fiziksel iyileşme, bağışıklık sistemi güçlenmesi ve hücre yenilenmesi için önemlidir.

Daha Derin Uyku: Derin uyku aşamasının derinleştiği bir alt aşamadır. Bu aşamada, vücut daha fazla dinlenir ve iyileşir. Kaslar daha fazla gevşer ve bazı temel fizyolojik süreçler gerçekleşir.

REM Uyku: REM uyku aşaması, rüya görmenin gerçekleştiği aşamadır. Gözler hızlı bir şekilde hareket eder ve beyin aktivitesi artar. REM uyku aşamasında vücut kasları felç olur ve hareket etme yeteneği geçici olarak kısıtlanır. REM uyku, zihinsel iyileşme, öğrenme ve hafıza güçlenmesi için önemlidir.

Uyku döngüleri bir gece boyunca birkaç kez tekrarlanır ve genellikle REM uyku süresi giderek artar. Her bir uyku döngüsü, vücudun ihtiyaç duyduğu dinlenmeyi ve yenilenmeyi sağlar. Toplam uyku süresi ve uyku aşamaları bireyden bireye farklılık gösterebilir ve yaşam tarzı, uyku düzeni, yaş ve diğer faktörlere bağlı olarak değişebilir.

Living together in a big house with one (main) (shared) bathroom means that mornings can be tough.

When you first arrived at the House of Lamentation, it was hard to fit in. It was really hard to get into the bathroom in the mornings and fight six demons for use of the sink. If more than two others were in there at the same time, they practically formed a living wall that blocked you out, forcing you to wake up extremely early or risk being late for school.

That got better over time though. You gradually managed to fit into the house's morning routine.

---

Lucifer has his morning routine down to an exact science. Usually he's fully dressed and has his hair brushed before leaving the bedroom. He might be running on pure muscle memory though - one time you handed him a warm washcloth for his face and he just stared at it in confusion for several seconds with a furrowed brow. He has no problems getting it himself, but this break in routine gave him pause. It took Lucifer a moment to realize what it was and to thank you.

If you get the chance to eat breakfast together, Lucifer likes to ask about your day. "What do you have planned? Remember, we have that meeting at five. Did you prepare for the ancient hex exam?" He might slide a bit of his food onto your plate before he goes, a way of returning the pleasant energy boost you always provide for him.

---

Mammon can hustle. Which means that Mammon can get up early if it benefits him in some way. A part time job, an early bird discount, a chance to slip past Lucifer's defenses and borrow some cash.

That doesn't mean it's easy. Waking up takes some serious effort. Mammon will stumble into the bathroom to do his business first thing in the morning, yawning with his eyes half closed and tugging up whatever pants he just tossed on for modesty.

The tsundere part of his brain takes a few minutes to kick in if he's just woken up. If he spots you, Mammon will demand a good morning hug and wrap his arms around you, deaf to your cries of "Mammon! Go wash your hands before you touch me!"

---

Leviathan is always groaning in the morning. He's probably not aware of it. He's probably muttering complaints but is too tired to actually speak the words properly. His blankets are always a tangled mess, wrapped unevenly around his feet and contorted around his body, but Leviathan can easily Houdini his way out of them when it's time to get up. If there's no event or livestream to wake up early for, he'll sleep in for as long as he can before starting the day with a nice shower.

He finds warm running water to feel so pleasant and you can often find Leviathan spacing out next to the faucet. He'll greet you with a sleepy "ah, morning," and accidentally splash you in an attempt to wave his hand. The embarrassment and slight panic from getting you a towel to dry off with is usually enough to properly wake him up, and he sheepishly exits the bathroom and guards the door until you've finished changing into dry clothes.

---

Satan can hardly even put his shirt on properly when fully awake.

The man's a sleepy mess when he tries to get dressed in the morning. He'll stay up all night to finish a book he's invested in, then stumble out of his room "ready to go" when it's time for breakfast. His pants are unzipped and the button is coming undone. He's only got one sleeve on and it's on the wrong arm, or the buttons on his shirt are all misaligned and half have been skipped over.

He doesn't protest anymore when you tidy him up. Some mornings he'll doze off while you straighten his tie and fall forward into you, then try to play it off as a hug. Satan doesn't want to let go though, you feel so much warmer on a chilly morning.

---

Asmodeus is a rare morning riser. Too much sleep is bad for the skin, he claims. If he has trouble getting up, he'll either go soak in his private tub for energy or seek you out.

"You have to hear what happened last night," he'll say, strolling into your room while there's still ten minutes left on your alarm. He sits on the edge of your bed, and if you try falling back asleep he pulls you up into a sitting position. "Listen to this, you won't believe it!"

Asmodeus isn't afraid to get touchy if it means you'll wake up faster and he gets your attention. He'll sit you in his lap, or press you against his side, or run his hands down your face and squish your cheeks with a mischievous smile.

When the main bathroom is too crowded to use you're free to borrow his, with the caveat he gets to style you for the day and you might be late when he gets overzealous.

---

Beelzebub can also be found awake in the mornings. The quiet hours before everyone else wakes up are best for stretching, taking jogs, and grabbing a pre-breakfast appetizer. He'll get spooked if he hears footsteps approach the kitchen and slam the fridge door shut in a hurry, but all is well when he sees you enter the room instead of Lucifer.

Beelzebub is a big guy who takes up a lot of space. When you run into each other in the bathroom and are rushing to get ready, it's easy to bump into him. On days he's still pretty tired, he might not even notice you bonk your head against his arm. That's fine though - you don't want him to notice you until he's brushed his teeth. After all, Beelzebub's morning breath is a potent magical weapon.

If you need the bathroom sink while he occupies it, Beelzebub is kind enough to nudge you in front of him (once you've confirmed his mouth is minty fresh). You both get to use the mirror this way, and you can both see each other's smiling faces.

---

Belphegor is the king of oversleeping. The powers of you and his twin combined are hardly enough on some days, but mostly the responsibility of waking him falls to you. You quickly learned it's best to wake him from behind his head, if you can manage to maneuver your way into a suitable spot to do so. Anywhere his limbs can easily grab you will result in being pulled into bed. He's like a sleeping kraken.

You suspect that Belphegor wakes up easier than he lets on, but he feigns ignorance. He insists he was totally fast asleep when you struggled to physically drag him down the hallway towards the bathroom, wrapping your arms tightly around his torso with all your strength. And when he clung on to your waist and nuzzled his head into your stomach. And when Beel came to help free you from Belphegor's clutches, but he rolled you under him and muttered "mine now."

Definitely fast asleep, doesn't remember a single thing.

The Importance of Sleep for Physical and Mental Health

Sleep is a vital part of our daily routine, allowing our bodies and minds to rest and rejuvenate. It is a complex process that involves multiple stages and plays a crucial role in maintaining physical and mental health. During sleep, our bodies go through various stages of activity, including non-REM (rapid eye movement) and REM sleep. Non-REM sleep is divided into four stages, with stage 1…

Tips For More Restful Sleep

For many working professionals or full-time students, getting a good night’s sleep can be a difficult goal to meet.

Being busy throughout the day can make it easy to lose track of time and allow waking hours to take precedence over the time we’re supposed to be asleep.

Even if you try to lie down and fall asleep at a reasonable time, you may find yourself tossing and turning instead of getting the rest you need.

Let’s explore common issues that inhibit good sleep quality, sleep stages, sleep hygiene, sleep schedules, and a few other sleep tips you can adopt in your life.

Sleep Cycles

Not all sleep is created equal, as there are several stages of sleep an individual cycles through during the night, each of which differ in depth and degree of disconnection from the waking world.

There are five stages of sleep, including both non-REM and REM sleep, and the stages usually repeat every 90 minutes or so to create a sleep cycle.

Stages 1-4 are non-REM stages that allow the body and mind to gradually shut down in order to enter a state of deep sleep.

The final stage of sleep is the REM stage, which is characterized by almost complete paralysis of the body, rapid movement of the eyes, and the ability to dream.

A decent night’s sleep involves about four sleep cycle repetitions and between 7-9 hours of sleep.

Though sleep duration and quality are variable, it’s important that adults try to get as close to this duration as possible to ensure that deep sleep is achieved.

Sleep Hygiene

If you have not heard of the term “sleep hygiene,” you’re not alone.

To explain, sleep hygiene refers to the environment we set up to facilitate sleep, and the habits we adopt in relation to sleep.

A reliable sleep schedule, a clean and comfortable sleeping area, healthy daytime habits (like diet and exercise), and a soothing pre-sleep routine are all examples of good sleep hygiene.

If you struggle to sleep at night, despite having time to dedicate to preserving your rest, you might want to look at your sleep hygiene behaviors and ensure that you’re practicing healthy sleep-related habits.

Sleep Schedules

One of the best sleep tips a person can adopt is following a sleep schedule.

By waking up and going to bed at the same time each day, a person can train their circadian rhythm and allow their body to prepare itself for sleep.

Adherence to a schedule creates a habit that lets the body know when it’s time to go to sleep each night.

Additionally, adopting a smart pre-sleep routine will make it to where individuals are able to limit distractions and give the brain time to relax after staring at a phone, TV, or computer screen.

Winding down for 30 minutes without looking at a screen, and getting the body to relax is a great way to significantly improve sleep quality.

The Importance of Sleep

Most of us realize that sleep is important when it comes to refreshing the mind and body after a long day.

However, due to the busy culture we live in, the significance of a good night’s sleep has often been ignored in an effort to maintain constant productivity.

Human beings are not machines, and while some people may insist that they’re incredibly successful thanks to a glaring lack of sleep each night, such practices are not ideal.

The brain and body need adequate sleep in order to not only restore energy, but to remove waste from the brain, improve learning capabilities, and strengthen memory processes.

Additionally, sleep helps to regulate mood, control appetite, and maintain a healthy libido.

Going without sleep is doing your mind and body a disservice.

If you’re struggling to sleep, despite adopting healthy sleep hygiene, it’s in your best interest to seek help for the issues you’re facing.

If you feel that the root of your sleep challenges is partially or significantly influenced by mental health issues, please feel free to book a complimentary 20-minute personalized matching consultation with our clinical intake coordinator to find the best clinical match for you.

If you’d like to seek support for your mental health needs, you’re welcome to contact our offices as soon as you’re ready. We’ve helped many people struggling with sleep issues, and we would be honored to help you, too.
