Sleeping through the night without interruptions is essential for feeling refreshed and productive. However, many people often
wake up between 3:00 AM and 5:00 AM and struggle to fall back asleep.
This pattern is not random but has both historical and physiological significance.
This period is sometimes referred to as the “hour of the wolf,” a term popularized by Swedish filmmaker Ingmar Bergman. He
described it as the time between night and dawn when sleep is deepest, nightmares feel most real, and many people pass away.
Swedish folklore also associates this hour with an increased likelihood of births and deaths.
