19 Reasons to Take a Nap

As if you need that many reasons to take a snooze.

Studies show that not only will you feel better almost immediately, says Sara Mednick, PhD, a sleep medicine researcher at the University of California at San Diego and author of Take a Nap! Change Your Life, but a daily nap of between 20 and 90 minutes before 4:00 pm will also increase your mental performance, reduce your chances of gaining weight, and make you feel a whole lot more like having sex after dinner than you probably do now. What's more, it won't affect your nighttime sleep.

Maybe such information should go out to employers rather than employees - and convince them to give their employees nap time. The reason "Increase your on-the-job alertness by 100 percent" seems quite convincing.

Pretty good. And if we don't like it, I guess we can say so without being assaulted by those who viewed the marriage video with "joy-trembling hands" and "tears of happiness" flowing down their streaked smug faces.
