Well, I hope you know what does polyphasing sleeping means. It works like this: You sleep 15-30 minutes for every 4-6 hours in a day. It is claimed that Leonardo da Vinci used this techicque. Maybe that is why he had so much spare time and did incredible amount of things. I wonder if anyone tried this technique. I did for two months but it was really hard to adjust at the beginning. Then my parents stopped me doing it as they said it can harm your metabolism. Anyway, do you have any experience?

at the office a 15-30 mins sleep is what we called power nap. my agents usually do that on their lunch break. so they wont be sleepy when they attend to their calls. its effective for them because the power nap energizes your mind.

But the thing is you should not sleep more than 30 mins in a day. You should do power naps trouhgout the day which makes it hard

i guess its hard to maintain to sleep within 30 mins. specially when your day is a tiring one..

I don't think it would be healthy . I think you need a good nights sleep to function right . Little naps all day and night just don't seem like you would be well rested . Specially with all the stresses today. You need more sleep at one time in order to rest your mind
