Flying dreams happen during REM sleep when the brain processes emotion and memory.
They often reflect feelings of control, freedom, or stress relief rather than hidden messages.
Dreams mirror the mind, not fate.

Grogginess isn’t about how long you slept.
It’s about where in the sleep cycle you woke up.

Wearing socks doesn’t trap heat, it helps release it.
By warming your feet, your body lowers core temperature faster, which can help you fall asleep sooner.
Comfort matters more than rules.

Even with an eidetic memory, dream recall isn’t guaranteed.
Dreams often aren’t stored in long-term memory because the brain areas responsible for encoding are less active during REM sleep.
Waking during REM not memory ability predicts dream recall.

How is lack of sleep linked to Alzheimer’s disease? During deep sleep, the brain clears beta-amyloid through the glymphatic system.
Poor sleep may reduce this clearance and is linked to increased Alzheimer’s risk.

When you dream, your emotional brain takes over.
🧠 The limbic system (especially the amygdala) becomes highly active during REM sleep, while the logical prefrontal cortex quiets down.
That’s why dreams feel vivid, emotional, and irrational.

• Inhaled lavender improved deep-sleep markers and subjective sleep quality in trials. 
• Mechanisms: may reduce brain-wave alpha activity and promote delta (restorative) waves.

You’re awake in bed, it starts believing bed = wake-time. By temporarily relocating dim light, calm activity (reading a paper book, light stretching) you preserve the bed = sleep link.

Why many people consider magnesium glycinate for better sleep:
🔹 Helps relax the nervous system
🔹 Supports muscle relaxation and GABA activity
🔹 Might speed up how fast you fall asleep and improve sleep quality
But: research is promising, not conclusive

To protect your rest:
• Stick to your usual bedtime + wake time
