I Think Daily Nap Time Should Be Mandatory

A Mandatory nap should be written into the Constitution! Think of the work we could get done if we were well rested! LOL

Zzz.  I've just had a few today, and feeling much the better for it :)

Remember when we were younger and hated taking naps? Now as an adult, all I want to do is take a nap.  Man, we were so naive back then. I try to take a nap every chance I get. I use to take naps on my lunch break, but I had to stop...

I wish we could do it here in the United States!
My favorite time to nap though is on a Sunday after lunch when my belly is all full and I know I don't have to be back at work until Tuesday, and all is calm and lazy for a little while...

A nap is so helpful to especially people who need them. Why would our workplaces ignore this most simple and basic fact? If I were allowed a space to take a 10 minute nap at least once a day, my ability to function would improve, and so...

I have 2 small children so I at least have an excuse lol

I agree, I need to take a small nap every day.  Even just 1/2hr makes me feel so great and rejuvenated.  Sleep is so important for the body, and I don't always sleep well at night(insomnia), so it really helps me.  It...

Doesn't some country like Spain have a couple hour siesta for workers every afternoon??  I could really get used to that.  I speak some spanish...hola...adios...yo quiero descansar...

But as part of a wider overhaul of my sleep habits.

I learned recently about "segmented" sleep. Researcher A. Roger Ekirch in his book "At Day's Close: Night in Times Past" writes,

... until the close of the...

...Then perhaps the work force would be less stressful if everyone could take half an hour siesta to cool their jets, and be more productive in their lives.

I wish I could take a nap every day, regardless of where I am. lol

the house is almost quiet...shhh. i hear the faint sound of yo gaba gaba playing in the living room. I'm relaxed.....such a rare saturday morning. my husband took the two oldest on a day trip! i have the baby, she is two with me. at...

Sometimes the very best part of my day involves crawling under the covers at one in the afternoon and taking a glorious nap.  I can only do this on my days off but that just makes me relish it all the more!

I totally agree with the Siesta thing. Have been to a number of countries where this is the norm and have seen hardly any unhappy people in any of them! It also gets the office bound out in the sun and fresh air.
While I am at it can I...

When i was in kindergarten and we had "nap time" i would sneak off behind the plastic kitchen set toy thingy and talk to my friends, then when i was in high school i would sleep through class and then talk to my friends....... point...

If I could get a nap in every day, I think life would be a bit easier to deal with, LOL!
Why don't we all 'train' ourselves (and our kids!) to nap at appropriate times during the day? Have we all forgotten the simple pleasure that is...

I'm not a person who takes naps.  I don't know what it takes in order for me to take a nap.  This evening, bang...I took a nap.  I couldn't resist anymore.  It felt good too.
