I bought a fitbit tracker, the Charge , and it's kinda neat how it works. It's mostly based on my BPM and it seems to be quite accurate. Due to a car wreck in 2002 and after 6 years of therapy I still had trouble sleeping due to muscle spasms in the back which still bother me. I'm pretty tired each morning and this tracker let me know why that is....there is a chart that tracks my sleep during the night that I can't copy but here are the stats. During the night, you progress through a series of sleep stages from light sleep to deep sleep, back to light sleep and into REM sleep. Then, the cycle repeats. My problem is I wake up multiple times in the night when I hit the REM.
  • Awake - 15.4%
    1 hrs 31 mins
  • REM - 18.6%
    1 hrs 50 mins
  • Light - 51.5%
    5 hrs 4 mins
  • Deep - 14.4%
    1 hrs 25 mins

interesting technology. EG: The algorithms that determine your sleep state via pulse.

How can you improve your sleep cycles with this information?
 
I'm not sure I can, I'll do some reading and if that doesn't help maybe an ether mask will...🙂
