This short transcript excerpt (from a YouTube video by Anne Truong MD) explains that REM sleep is the dreaming stage when eyes move rapidly and the brain shifts into parasympathetic (relaxation) mode. The speaker links this parasympathetic state during REM to physiological conditions that promote morning erections (nocturnal penile tumescence).
