Do you still sleep/nap in the afternoon?  |
|
 Having a cultural spanish background roots. We are taught and trained that taking a nap or sleeping during afternoons is healthy for our body. It recharged us from the hectic mornings that we spend at work or merely travelling to our offices and work places. On the other hand, if you are a home-based person. Do you still manage to get some sleep or take a nap in the afternoons?As for me, I miss those days whenever we sleep during afternoons. Back then there are more spare time to spend with. Miss taking a nap for at least 2 hours and waking up revitalize and ready for another tiring activity. Well, I guess as we grow older our schedules become hectic and as our economy suffers we need to spend more hours at work than before.

1.  IrishRose23 (536) | 1 year ago |  I sure do still nap in the afternoon! It especially happens after only 2 hours of sleep. It really gives you more energy to do the things that you need to do.

| mchavez11 (650) | 1 year ago | Yah I kinda heard that too from other people. They only suggest that if you would take naps it only should only take 20 mins or so. Otherwise your head will feel heavy and drowsy. Though I never had that experience. Thanks and happy posting. | |

| 5. x7heavens (321) | 1 year ago |  As a housewife, my daily schedule is busy with doing the housework chores, managing the kids, marketing, running errands, etc. My hectic day starts at 5.30 in the morning and ends up only after the kids have gone to sleep, like around 10 at night. Even then, I could not find myself sleeping right after and could only close my eyes at 1 or 2 in the morning.
As such, napping in the afternoon is very important for me to catch up some sleep, thus charging my body and makes me alert for the rest of the day. Napping usually takes about 30 - 45 minutes. Once it is over, I am up and about, whizzing my way around the house again.
If I do not take this nap, I may find myself becoming more irritable and bad-tempered. Something that I do not wish the kids to experience, 'an angry mum'.

| mchavez11 (650) | 1 year ago | Wow. You are a super mum and I bet your husband and kids are lucky to have you. Your post seems that you're so busy with the things that really matters. Good for you and you managed your time pretty well by making sure you take a nap during afternoons just so to recharge your body. Hats off to you heavens. Cheers and salute. Thanks and happy posting. | |

| 6. riyasam (10895) | 1 year ago |  i try to take a nap in the afternoon for 10mins.if i take longer than that,i have trouble sleeping at night.

|
| mchavez11 (650) | 1 year ago | I sometimes experienced that too. That's why I make it a point that nap for only 20 minutes and not more than that because if I get to sleep for 2 hours like I said. I tend to be up all night sometimes until dawn because I'm revitalized and recharged. Thanks and happy posting. | |

| 7. ralphcharleston (429) | 1 year ago |  Due to the nature of my work, i cant take a nap or sleep in the afternoon. I cant find time to take a sleep or even a nap. I have only one hour break time during lunch but i use this time to eat and to have my personal hygiene. But on weekends i always make sure to have a sleep in the afternoon to recover my body from stresses that i incurred during the working days.

| 10. iceblizzard (461) | 1 year ago |  I do take nap, provided I'm at home. I can't just sleep at any place, like for example at the office, I maybe closing my eyes and pretended sleeping but deep within I'm wide awake and just observing. Well, at home, I surely take a good sleep at nap time. The cool breeze and the natural ambience of the surrounding creates a lullaby for me to sleep about 2-3 hours during nap time.
