Most people don’t realize we go through multiple cycles of sleep. In this video, Dr. Milanak explains what sleep is and how we experience different stages and cycles throughout the night. Find out about Stage 1 sleep, where our senses begin shutting down and we start getting into the sleep rhythm. Then, we go into Stage 2, the transition stage, before reaching Stage 3, or deep sleep, also known as slow-wave sleep, where our body repairs itself. The entire cycle lasts about 90-110 minutes. But what about subsequent cycles and REM sleep? when do our mind repairs? And where do dreams fit into the picture? Understanding these stages is key to improving your overall health and wellbeing and you can learn all this in video. #BeWell
