💡 More Info:

Today we would like you to try and squeeze in a nap. If you can, aim for 20 – 30 mins.

According to the National Sleep Foundation, a short nap of 20-30 minutes can help to improve mood, alertness and performance.

This type of nap provides significant benefits for improved alertness and performance without leaving you feeling groggy or interfering with night-time sleep.

Napping also has psychological benefits. A nap can be a pleasant luxury like a mini-vacation. It can provide an easy way to get some relaxation and rejuvenation.

Please be aware though that napping can have a negative effect on other sleeping periods. A long nap or a nap taken too late in the day may adversely affect the length and quality of night-time sleep.

Aim to nap mid-day instead of later in the day.
