This is what happen in our brain while we sleep

This is what happen in our brain while we sleep:

While we sleep our brains are very active, processing information, preparing for the next day, and cleansing toxins. 

Memory Consolidation: The brain processes and consolidates events from the day into memory. 

Brain plasticity: Sleep helps the brain adapt to new input.

Learning and problem-solving: A good night's sleep can improve these

Learning and problem-solving: A good night's sleep can improve skills. 

Toxic cleansing: The brain removes toxic metabolites, such as beta-amyloid, which can lead to neurogenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. 

Toxic cleansing: The brain removes toxic metabolites, such as beta-amyloid, which can lead to neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer.

Neurotransmitter breakdown: The chemical adenosine, which builds up in the blood while we are awake and makes us feel sleepy, breaks down while we sleep. 

Melatonin Production: The pineal gland increases production of melatonin, which helps us fall asleep. 

Brain waves: The brain cycles through two types of sleep: REM (rapid-eye movement) sleep and non-REM sleep. During REM sleep, the brain waves are similar to those when we are awake. 

Thalamus activity: During most sleep stages, the thalamus is quiet, but during REM sleep sends images, sound, and other sensations to the cerebral cortex, which fills our dreams. 

Amygdala activity: The amygdala, which is involved in processing emotions, becomes more active during REM sleep. 

Sleep homeostasis: The brain tracks how much sleep you need to recover.
