The Sleep Cycle 5e6165
Every night, you go through five different stages of sleep.
Stage 1 - You get drowsy and start to drift off. Your heartbeat becomes regular and there's not much body movement.
Stage 2 - You enter a light sleep, but can still be easily awakened by noises.
Stage 3 - You're in a deeper sleep, where it's difficult to wake you up.
Stage 4 - This is the deepest stage of sleep. Sleepwalking and bedwetting occur in this phase.
REM - Your brain suddenly becomes much more active. You have rapid eye movements (REMs), your face, fingers and toes may twitch, and dreams will occur.

If you sleep on your stomach, you're a creative, focused and stick to what you believe in.
If you sleep on your side, you're easygoing, adapt well to new situations and like to go with the flow, but can be somewhat of a pushover.
