Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is one of four stages the brain moves through while sleeping. REM sleep typically starts within 90 minutes of falling asleep. During rapid eye movement sleep, a person's brain activity, breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure increase, and the eyes move rapidly while closed.

At the moment, I'm finding that I'm unable to switch off from everything I have going on. My thoughts seem to race most of the night, preventing me from sleeping soundly, even though my husband says that I must have had a 'good night's sleep' because I snored all night!

Each morning, I wake up feeling drained, unrefreshed and ill-prepared for the day ahead.
