Formula: Cycle Duration = 90 minutes (1.5 hours). Sleep onset latency = 15 minutes. 5 Cycles = 7.5 hours + 15 min = 7.75 hours.

In-Depth Guide & Mathematical Methodology

🌙 90-Minute Sleep Cycle Architecture

1 Complete Cycle: ~90 minutes progressing through Light Sleep, Deep Sleep, and REM.

Optimal Adult Sleep: 5 complete cycles = 7.5 hours of actual sleep + 15 minutes to fall asleep.
