Imagine your body is like a clock that goes through different stages during the night. Some people need more of one stage than others, and this helps them feel more rested in the morning. These different stages are what make up our sleep cycles.
Examples
- A child might need more naps because their brain is still learning how to manage sleep cycles.
- Someone who works night shifts may feel tired during the day because their body’s clock is out of sync with regular sleep cycles.
- Napping for 20 minutes can give you a quick boost, but sleeping too long might make you groggy.
