    The document describes the different stages of sleep through brain wave patterns, with B-beta waves when awake and alert, A-alpha waves when awake and relaxed, T-theta waves in light sleep stage 1, S-spindles in stage 2, Transylvania representing stage 3 with a mix of theta/spindles/delta waves, and Don’t-Delta waves in deep sleep stage 4 where night terrors can occur. Dream refers to REM sleep stage where muscles are paralyzed but other body activity increases like breathing and heart rate during dreaming.

    Dont - Delta waves - deep sleep (stage 4) bedwetting/night terrors/sleepwalking! Dream - REM - most restful - dreaming paralyzed muscles, but rest of the body is ooded with activity (rapid eye movement, increased breathing and heart rate, arousal)
