I appreciate a good power nap, but it is very easy to want to keep napping and wake up 2 hours later. I have to set my alarm and force myself out of bed or off the couch. I do feel better if I keep it to less than an hour...30-45 minutes is usually ideal. If I am over an hour and still napping then I am going to be groggy and out of it for a while before I can get a good head of steam again.

I can't take power naps! I don't know what the deal is but I seriously can NOT wake up once I'm asleep. A nap will just make me more tired unless it is a gigantic nap that takes hours. Those are the best, but they're rare.

I don't like taking a nap. If I sleep during the day, I'm not sleepy at night even if it was only for 20 minutes. Also, I haven't noticed any increase of energy after it. Taking a nap is confusing for me because when I wake up I'm not sure whether it's a day or a night and it takes a while for me to wake up completely. I don't like it.

This is the first time I have ever heard of this term. From the response of the members here I can see that it is very important and I will be trying it.

Power naps never work for me. It takes about 15-30 minutes just for me to fall asleep anyway, and then when I do take naps I can never fall asleep later at night. I only revert to naps if I absolutely need one and there's no stimulants available to me to keep me awake.

When I was still working, I would take power naps on my lunch break. I took me a while to actually "wake up" from it, but yes, once I was awake, I was ready to go.

I am finding that more and more as well...I am finding it increasingly beneficial to just sleep to my 5.5 or 6 hour per night sleeping schedule except on Sunday mornings where I get a bit more sleep...naps can sometimes make me weary unless I am absolutely exhausted...at that point I simply pass out and wake up when I wake up...for better or for worse.


All the best,
