How long is your ideal nap/power sleep?


Question:
Nevermind the boys at NASA- what do you say?

Answers:
I do not feel guilty about taking naps. Sleep, even a nap, helps enhance my own information processing and learning. A mid-day nap reverses information overload. Short naps (30 minutes to one hour) improve my stamina, and helps feign fatigue, irritation, frustration and poorer performance on mental tasks.

Other Answers:
4 -5 hours is a real nap!

Twenty minutes 20 minutes to an hour is about right


usually an hour or 2.


half an hour to an hour.anything more i wouldn't be able to sleep that night

2 hours for a nap 30 minutes, if I sleep any longer I feel really sleepy for the rest of the day.


1-2 hrs but i usually don't nap

sleeping is for wimps!


1 hour 30 mins


12 hours. Dream on.


they say 20 minutes is the ideal power nap, but for a real nap at least an hour I say.

15 min is good for me naps should be no longer than 40 mins, because your body will go into a deep sleep and then your sleepy the rest of the day. Plus a nap that is 20 mins long will give you a 2 hour boost! :) Happy Napping


an hour or two, any longer and I feel groggy.


For me, an ideal power nap is just about 30 seconds. if I really fall asleep. I know it sounds strange but it is somehow refreshing and yet does not take much time.

i think that if you get less than 15 you can feel refreshed
but otherwise it should be 90 minutes then u finish your first deep leep cycle, if you wake up before this you still feel groggy an sleepy


30-60 minutes sometimes more 30 Minutes. Anything more will put you into a REM cycle and you will wake up more tired. Anything less and you really didn't get any of your energy back.


My ideal nap is 2 hours sometimes 3. I don't know how some people can take 15 minute naps. It takes me 15 minutes to fall asleep.


I have to get at least half an hour.

30mins-1hour :] about three hours.


20 minutes. any longer & i go into deep sleep, then feel all fuzzy & confused for the rest of the day!


Studies show 20-30 minutes is ideal. If you you sleep longer you will goi into a deeper stage of sleep and wake up groggy.

I can sleep for 14-16 hours I don’t get people who don't like sleep and think their missing out, what better freedom and adventures than your dreams and so relaxing and refreshing, even the nightmares
don’t power nap, deep sleep


Atleast one hour to finally wind down enough to feel refreshed by the power nap
