Is non-REM what I hear people call deep sleep? I feel like I don't get much of it!
knowledge: Rapid eye movement sleep (REM sleep, REMS) is a unique phase of sleep in mammals and birds, distinguishable by random/rapid movement of the eyes, accompanied with low muscle tone throughout the body, and the propensity of the sleeper to dream vividly.
response: REM sleep is rapid eye movement sleep, accompanied with low muscle tone and allows you to dream more vividly.

knowledge: Unlike REM sleep, there is usually little or no eye movement during these stages.
response: I couldn't say, but non-REM sleep involves little to no eye movement.
