"regular bodily rhythms… that occur on a 24-hour cycle" (pg

an individuals internal rhythms are temporarily out of sync with the environment around

"a test that detects electrical activity in your brain using small, flat metal discs (electrodes) attached to your scalp" (mayoclinic.org)

being startled awake while drifting to sleep

sleep walking/talking, etc

• brain waves slow down through 1-3, but perk up in REM

characterized by "uncontrollable sleep attacks, sometimes lapsing directly into REM sleep" (pg.63)

"A chronic neurological disorder caused by the brains inability to regulate sleep-wake cycles normally"

(uppers and sometimes anti-depressants help symptoms)

"characterized by temporary cessations of breathing during sleep and repeated momentary awakenings"

• often with clinically overweight/obese people & kids with enlarged tonsils (snoring)

• CNS struggles with talking to diaphragm and lungs to keep working (stopping breathing)

• (resetting of jaw can help)
