  1. orthodox sleep

    Orthodox sleep, also known as NREM (Non-Rapid Eye Movement) sleep, refers to a type of sleep that is characterized by slow brain waves, little dreaming, and reduced physiological activity such as heart rate, breathing rate, and energy use. This is the sleep stage in which the body repairs and regrows tissues, builds bone and muscle, and strengthens the immune system. It consists of three stages and makes up about 75-80% of the sleep cycle in adults.
