The Sleep Cycle alarm clock app is a great way to track your sleep patterns. I know, some of you are thinking sleep cycles. I’ve got too much to do to think about my sleep patterns. Did you know, we need 8 – 10 hours of QUALITY sleep every night? Who knew? I didn’t, I thought because I was so full of energy I only needed 6 – 7 hours of sleep. This year, I found out I have been adversely affecting my cortisol levels. Which in turn affects almost every part of my overall health. Quality sleep is one of the most beneficial things you can do for your health. Of course, quality food goes without saying, but I talking about sleep in this blog.

This .99 cent app wakes you up with a soft melody during a light sleep cycle. You simply, start the app, place your iPhone face down under your sheet, and it begins tracking your movements and then gently awakes you in the morning. Waking up to an alarm when you’re in your light sleep cycle guarantees you’ll be in a better/happier mood and not be so groggy/grumpy. If you use a regular alarm and it goes off at a set time every day, it is probably waking you during your deep sleep cycle; and then comes grumpy bear.
