When you sleep at night, your body and brain go through several stages of sleep. Some of these are shallow sleep stages, when your brain and body activity slow and stabilize. However, the most important phases of sleep are the deepest (Level 4), and the shallowest (also known as Level 5 or REM sleep). Level 4 sleep is the most serene and is when brain activity is the quietest.

During the REM stage of sleep, the body breaks out of its placid sleep state and starts to experience changes in heart rate, brain activity, and breathing rate. In addition, the eyelids flutter, giving this state the name of REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep. Scientists are unsure what exactly happens during REM sleep, but it is most surely associated with dreaming--and the most vividly recalled dreams occur during REM sleep.

The exact nature of Level 4 deep sleep also remains a bit of a mystery, but its effects are well documented. People who spend enough time in deep sleep each night are good at forming memories and fighting disease and infection--they even tend to look younger. That's why the lack of sleep is so disorienting and detrimental to insomniacs--their bodies are going without this vital sleep phase.
