REM Sleep Consolidation

Meaning

REM Sleep Consolidation is the process of achieving and maintaining robust, uninterrupted periods of Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep, the stage of sleep critically important for cognitive functions, including memory processing, emotional regulation, and creative problem-solving. Clinically, this consolidation is a vital biomarker of neuroendocrine health, as disturbed REM sleep is closely linked to chronic stress, HPA axis dysregulation, and impaired hormonal secretion patterns.
