THE SCIENCE OF SLEEP

Deep sleep is essential. It allows the body time to restore, recalibrate and recover.

True wellness begins in stillness. Deep sleep, also known as slow-wave sleep, is the phase where the body works to repair itself. Muscles rebuild and inflammation is reduced, while hormones are released to support strength, recovery and long-term resilience. Without enough high-quality sleep, your fitness goals become harder to meet.

The brain also depends on deep sleep for clarity and longevity. During sleep, the nervous system enters a state of maintenance, which is essential for cognitive health and emotional regulation. Over time, inadequate sleep is linked to brain fog, mood instability and an increased risk of neurological decline.

At Surrenne, we view sleep as a foundation for optimal wellness. Deep sleep will help to build resilience whilst allowing the nervous system time to reset, the immune system to be bolstered and the body to return to its natural rhythm.

Being at your peak in terms of health is not just about what you do when you’re awake; The quiet and restorative moments when our mind and body is at ease are just as important as time spent awake working towards health and fitness goals."
