<p>Very cool graphic with some very normal flaws. As Somno says your body puts more emphasis on Stage 3/4 and so should you. There is a reason why our bodies get the majority of its slow wabe sleep prior to even one minute of REM. I would have also like to see something on the swing in length of stage 3 and REM as the night progresses.</p>

<p>And to follow up with JAN'S statement...it is your wake up time that sets the body's clock. Typically, no matter the number of hours you sleep, it is best to keep to the same wake time (plus or minus 1 hr) than it is to sleep late but get more sleep. Pushing your body clock later into the day just sets you up for nasty monday morning blues..which are really jetlag from bad sleep hygiene over the weekend. …<br></br></p>

<p>REM sleep in my opinion is NOT the deepest level of sleep. Slow Wave Sleep is the deepest. REM sleep is connectivity to emotions and memories. Slow Wave Sleep raises the sensory thresholds such that this is the type of sleep of childhood where you can lift the child from the car to the bed without waking them. Children have the majority of sleep as Slow Wave Sleep. It is the only time the brain goes into this state. As the graphic depicts REM is pseudo Wake, and actually used to be called…</p>

Children have the majority of sleep as Slow Wave Sleep. It is the only time the brain goes into this state. As the graphic depicts REM is pseudo Wake, and actually used to be called PseudoSleep, because of its similarity to wakefulness. </p>
<p>SWS has always been the mystery and the sleep that affords the feeling of recuperation. REM sleep is the sleep of incorporating the phone ringing into your dream, SWS is the sleep of "A bomb could have gone off and I would have slept through it."</p>
