Sleep spindles are quick bursts that a activity in the human brain during sleep, this occurs one of the stages of sleep, called stage 2, this is when the heart rate slows down and eye closure. Studies make it clear that the sleep spindles may play a role of false memories, research recruited 32 well- rested participants shows that the brain activity makes sure that napping is good for the brain no just lying in bed.

With the experiment done with polysomnography device, one side of the brain was more gullible than the other which I will like to call the Right and left. The right in a visual field available to only one brain hemisphere at a time, but don't get too mad at your brain I think the sleeping brain spends more time to identify the most important aspects of what the system learned during the past day.

Study the right side of the brain is dominant in creating false memories during sleep because the sleep spindles are stronger it makes it feel real, in addition to this sleeping make the brain is misfortune across the night sleep.

Hi @henry-9ja. I think your article needs more explanation. The subject was confusing, maybe you can lead with some introduction to sleep spindle, why do we care at all about sleep spindle and the rest of the stages of sleep.
