Thread: Interrupted Sleep more refreshing than Continuous 6-8hr

:yumdumdoodledum: :yumdumdoodledum: Welcome rogue_noir! :yumdumdoodledum: :yumdumdoodledum:

I don't think setting the clock will increase REM significantly. It does, however, help in dream recall.
Personally, I wake up anyway after one or two dreams anyway.

Hey! Welcome!

I know exactly what your saying, i feel more refreshed if i wake up a few times in the night then sleeping all the way through.

But, i think this can be explained: If I wake up during the night, i suppose it is out of the fact that i am not tired, and dont need rest in the first place, but when i sleep all the way through, i am in fact tired and need my rest!

maybe its different for you, but sometimes when im really tired and wake up a few times in the night, i do feel more refreshed-its strange, but perhaps your right!

I know I must sound opinionated, maybe biased and quite possibly jaded. But sooner than later they’ll be throwing quarters to you on stage.[/b]

Welcome To DreamViews

I've found that lucid experiences, in addition to waking up 20 times in the night, and remembering about 4 dreams upon wakening, that I wake up more refreshed then ever. Not tired. I didn't think it could be done... but I wake up before my alarm clock.

i know it sounds verry stupid but when i sleep like 8 our 9 ours and my alarm goes off im really tired! so what i do is i set it 10 minutes earlier and when i wake up i can sleep for 10 more minutes and after that i feel a lot more awaken!! does anyone have the same thing??
