Must’ve been a boring
meeting at the office!
A short nap can refresh you as it slows your brainwaves.
When you get up from your nap, get as much high-intensity light (ideally sunlight) as soon as you can. Then do a quick exercise or take a short walk to restore your alertness.
Take a 20-minute nap if you plan to stay up late for a social event or party. Try to wake up at your normal wake time the next morning. Otherwise, recovering your normal sleep pattern may take a couple of days.
If you need to nap every day, take a short nap at the same time so your body can establish a rhythm. If you are unable to fall asleep while napping, resting with your eyes closed will work almost as well.
Learn more about napping in the book, “Sleep Secrets”.
