If you are questioning why do I get up during the night to noises when others do not, study suggest that certain patterns of activity in the mind are connected to a greater resistance for sound during rest. If your brain generates greater focus of rest pins-- bursts of high-frequency brain waves-- you demonstrate better resistance to sound throughout sleep. Rest spindles initially happen throughout Phase 2 sleep, a stage of light sleep that composes nearly half of a common night's rest. Although rest is important for recovery, sleep deprivation is a major concern for patients in medical facilities.
