One complete sleep cycle lasts about 90 to 100
minutes therefore during an average sleep period
a person will experience 4 to 5 complete sleep
cycles. The sleep cycle begins with four stages
of SWS (Slow-Wave Sleep), also called NREM
(Non-REM). Note that after the completion of the
4th stage, the 5th stage does not immediately
begin instead, the first 4 stages quickly
reverse and are then immediately followed by a
REM period. The first REM period will occur
roughly 90 minutes after falling asleep thus the
first REM period will last only about 10 minutes,
given the length of each sleep cycle being
roughly 100 minutes. The length of the stages is
not static, however as the night proceeds, the
length of stages 3 and 4 (also called delta or
deep sleep) begins to wane, and the length of REM
sleep increases, up to about one hour in length
after a number of cycles. Therefore, as the night
goes on, you dream for longer periods of time
