sleep like a log

This is another way of saying you slept really well. People feel like they had good sleep when they obtain deep sleep. Deep Sleep is one of the 4 sleep cycles and some think it is one of the most important. Since logs do not move by themselves once placed on the ground, to sleep like a log is sleeping so good that you do not move.

A similar saying to "sleep like a log" is "slept like a baby". Both are ways of saying you slept undisturbed throughout the night.

The opposite is when someone says they tossed and turned all night. This is not sleeping like a log. You are moving all over the place which means you are not getting quality sleep. It is likely you are getting light sleep vs deep sleep. This is when people wake up still feeling tired.

Oh, you can't sleep? Take some melatonin and you will sleep like a log.

Dang, I can't believe it is morning already. I sleeping like a log last night.

deep sleep

Stage 3 in the sleep cycle is the deep sleep stage. This is the stage of sleep that puts your body in recovery mode, This is where your mind and body slow down, blood pressure is reduced, heart rate goes down, and you are completely calm and relaxed. Overall brain activity slows down in this stage.

When people are speed time in this stage of this, they wake up feeling refreshed. Other ways to describe deep sleep are below:
sleep like a log
slept like a baby

The opposite of deep sleep is light sleep. This is when you toss and turn all night and wake up tired even if you slept for over 7 hours.

My sleep tracker says I had over 2 hours of deep sleep last night. Amazing!

unprotected sleep

turning off your alarm clock and immediately going back to sleep; risking not waking up for a job, class, or other daily task.

I'm lucky that i didn't miss my final exam after having 30 minutes of unprotected sleep.
