How It Works
Human sleep repeats approximately 90-minute cycles of REM and non-REM sleep. Waking at the end of a cycle makes it easier to feel refreshed. This tool assumes an average of 15 minutes to fall asleep and calculates 3 to 6 cycle options (4.5 to 9 hours). Individual variation exists, so use this as a guide.
