Sometimes we feel sleepy during the day. We might want to take a nap. But is it good for us?
Dr. Neil Stanley, a sleep expert, says a short nap can be helpful. He suggests napping for about 20 minutes. This can make us feel better and think more clearly.
If we nap for too long, we might feel worse when we wake up. It's best to nap for a short time or take a much longer rest of two hours.
A short nap can help us learn new things better. It can also make our brains work better. Dr. Stanley says a quick nap is a good way to feel better on a long, tiring day.
