An average sleep cycle lasts about 90 minutes. Ideally, you need four to six cycles of sleep every 24 hours to feel fresh and rested. Each cycle contains four individual stages: three that form non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep and one rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. So a single sleep cycle is about 1.5 hours.
I got about 3 hours last night so that’s about 2 sleep cycles. Jfl at people thinking they need 8 or 9 minimum. I normally sleep 5-7 hours on average and it usually works fine for me. The only annoying thing is when you have to go to school, college, work, gym etc that’s when you might end up feeling like shit. On weekdays I tend to get less than weekends for some reason.
