A typical sleep cycle has five stages and takes 90-110 minutes. During Stage 1 of your sleep cycle, you sleep lightly. At Stage 2, your sleep gets progressively deeper. At Stages 3 and 4, also known as "Delta Sleep," you sleep most heavily; this is when your body rebuilds itself.

Stage 5 of sleep, also known as REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, is marked by extensive physiological changes, such as accelerated respiration, increased brain activity, rapid eye movement, and muscle relaxation. People dream during REM sleep.

It's proven that the best moment to wake up is the very end of REM phase, when your last dream is over.
Here's how it looks based on user reviews:
  • You have a dream, as the last stage of your sleep cycle
  • You realize that you are dreaming because it became odd or comes to the logical end
  • To change the dream you decide to roll over
If nothing happens, then people completely forget about this and fall into a deep sleep shortly. But, here begins the magic!
Right in that moment your favorite song starts to play somewhere far away, getting louder and louder

You wake up in a cheerful mood, ready to start a new perfect day!
