Nap Time

It's the weekend, time to take a break and enjoy time with family, friends, and even some quiet time to yourself.

Sometimes the weekends can be a little crazy as we try to cram in as much as possible. I know for me Saturday can be as busy as the rest of my week, so I have made it point to not do very much on Sunday.

If your weekends are busy, it does not mean you can't take a break in the middle of the day for a quick relaxing nap.

It can be challenging to sleep in the middle of the day, but just laying down and closing our eyes should give you the same benefits as actually going to sleep.

Did you know a quick nap is good for lowering your stress level, giving you a needed boost energy, increasing your learning ability, and just all around good for your health.

Take the break you deserve. Find a half hour in you day for a quick nap. Your body will thank you for it!

Do you take naps?

  1. No, never. No matter how exhausted I am, I push through and go to bed early. Any time I take a nap I wake up with a headache, dry throat/mouth, sinuses are throbbing...I call it 'nap hangover'. Plus I end up always having bad/weird dreams and it feels like I'm being covered with a heavy black velvet blanket and I can't breathe.

  2. I love a nice Sunday afternoon nap. But I don't see any naps in my future until after tax season--that would be late April of 2014.
