fall into a deep sleep

Is this natural paragraph?

Is it correct to 'fall into a deep sleep'? or can I use it in any other sentence?

However, if those eight hours are filled with light and restless sleep, it will probably be the equivalent of only a couple of hours. You need to fall into a deep sleep, and these steps will help you reach that goal.

Thanks

Hi, I had asked you this and would like to know how I can phrase this like a native speaker. Could you tell me?

I don't want to close my bedroom door so I can hear the tv in the living room. I don't want to go in a deep sleep. With the Tv on, I'll be in a light sleep.

Thanks

Probably native speakers do utter sentences like the first, but the "I don't want to ... so I ..." structure is awkward and potentially confusing. These are possible alternatives:

"I don't want to close my bedroom door because I want to be able to hear the TV in the living room." (better, but still technically ambiguous and hence faintly awkward)

"I don't want to close my bedroom
