When you wake up, you either feel well-rested or as if you could use more sleep. For many of us, the latter is unfortunately true much of the time. Your mattress plays a major role in the quality of your sleep. There are two major sleep stages that are necessary for waking up rested and refreshed: REM and NREM sleep. If either of these cycles is disrupted because of discomfort, you won’t feel alert or rested the next day.
NREM Sleep: People spend a majority of their time asleep in the NREM stage. This stage is also known as “deep sleep” and is the time when your body repairs itself for the next day. It takes awhile to reach Stage 4 or “deep sleep”, and if you’re uncomfortable, it might be hard to fully benefit from NREM sleep.
REM Sleep: REM sleep is when we have our most vivid dreams. Adequate time in REM is essential for learning and memory. If you’re deprived of REM sleep, you’ll probably have trouble recalling what you learned the day before – not good for any student or employee.
