Sleep Architecture
Sleep architecture describes the structure and cycling of sleep stages throughout the night, including light sleep, deep sleep (slow-wave sleep), and REM sleep. Each stage serves distinct functions: deep sleep supports physical recovery and immune function, while REM sleep is critical for memory consolidation and emotional processing.

Disrupted architecture—common with alcohol, stress, or sleep apnea—leaves you feeling unrefreshed even after adequate total sleep.
