The ninety-minute cycle

Sleep runs in cycles of roughly ninety minutes, and the same rhythm shows up when you’re awake: attention climbs, holds, and then drops off whether you agreed to it or not.

Ninety minutes is long enough to finish something real and short enough that you can see the end from the start. What matters more than the number is the break after it — the cycle only works if it actually closes.

If the ninety minutes are a full sleep cycle rather than work, the nap timer adds time to fall asleep and wakes you gently.
