Frequently Asked Questions

Why 90-minute cycles?

Sleep naturally moves through cycles of roughly 90 minutes, and waking up between cycles rather than in the middle of one tends to feel less groggy.

Does everyone have exactly 90-minute cycles?

It varies slightly by person, so treat these times as a helpful guide rather than an exact science.
