There is a reason that it is called a power nap. It indeed gives you a new and fresh burst of energy. Last year Psychology Today published an article about the benefits of napping during the day. http://www.psychologytoday.com/rss/pto-20080204-000001.html Now I am not talking about sleeping for hours at a time. I'm talking about twenty minutes to close your eyes and let your mind wander and your muscles relax. I find that after coming home from a long day at work, I can't sit down and get to work on my projects right away. It's like my mind is still at work even if my body isn't. So, after having dinner, I rest for twenty minutes and wake refreshed and ready to tackle my projects.
So to all those out there who cannot just put their feet up and relax after a day of work, take a nap and continue on with your productivity. I promise you, it will help!
P.S.
SET AN ALARM!
