Plus, they fill us in on what exactly happens during the REM stage and how to make sure you get enough of it. During sleep, the brain produces unique patterns of electrical activity that can be ...

During REM sleep, your heart rate increases, your blood pressure elevates, and your eyes move. REM sleep may also be the time when your brain processes emotions and solidifies memories.

Researchers sought to better understand the connection between REM sleep patterns in patients with either insomnia or MDD.

Sleep reorganizes neural patterns in a way that helps memories take hold and prepares the brain for new information.
