Sleep Documentary
DW Documentary. Like Share Comment Sleep disorders are one of the most common reasons for visiting a doctor in Europe. Instead of sleeping pills, alternative methods are increasingly gaining attention. This sleep documentary looks at new therapeutic approaches such as sophrology and light therapy. We spend around a third of our lives asleep.

Re: Sleep Documentary
This is the original study (2013) showing what happens during sleep... https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2013/10/18/236211811/brains-sweep-themselves-clean-of-toxins-during-sleep#:~:text=While%20the%20brain%20sleeps%2C%20it,a%20study%20of%20mice%20found.
This has been found only to occur during deep sleep aka non REM sleep.

Re: Sleep Documentary
I had to search for a while to find this. I believe you will find it of interest. Personally, if I eat anything with MSG in it, I will wake up exhausted because I will have the most vivid dreams ever. Everybody's different but avoiding msg and dyes like annatto (which makes cheese orange) makes a difference to me.

Re: Sleep Documentary
Not sure why anyone would pay $60 for a device that just gets you to breathe slowly and rhythmically, which one can do all by themselves.

They pay it because it works for them, however if you can control your breathing as required then this would be useless. A friend of mine, who happens to be an expert in meditation agrees with you.
