A powerful mid morning nap....

My husband had an early morning flight. So I had to get up pretty early to see him off. I tried to go back to bed but could not sleep well. My morning walk did help to drive away the sleepiness and make me energetic. But after few chores again I felt that tiredness due to lack of sleep. Glad I took a powerful nap for a little long than an hour keeping my phone on silent. It is so peaceful in house at this time. Now I am awake feeling fresh and energetic. I have some time before I have to leave for work. Will try to Mylot and attend to the notifications till then. Enjoy Mylotting

Yes. We need them at times to replenish our energy and to make up for our sleep loss. Hope you get yours peacefully.

Yeah. Getting enough sleep will do the trick of the day. When I'm sleep deprived, I tend to get lazy and feel like dragging all the work. Even some 10 mins of power nap would suffice for making me so energetic for the rest of the day. Enjoy your day!

@arunima25 Exactly. I also don't tend to sleep after I get up from a power nap. I wish to get more sleep but I don't usually. It will clearly indicate that my batteries are charged well. Haha!

That's so much with me. Power naps for short duration are good enough to fuel me up.

@smileyhema Yes, we need those especially as mothers and home makers. Those power naps help a lot. Ours is a non stop job.

I would like to be able to take naps, but once I get up I cannot go back to bed.

@arunima25 I also avoid, because if I nap during the day, I cannot sleep during the night.

@LadyDuck Yes. But most of days I take 20_40 minutes nap. This short nap rejuvenates me and does not interfere with my night sleep.

I also feel tired if I don't sleep well but very rarely I take a nap during the day.

I am not one for napping. But I DO fall asleep sometimes. I GUESS you could call that a nap. But after, you can feel quite refreshed.

wakeup early in the morning is always tough as we were in deep sleep but as you mentioned that flight which is a must thing so its good to take some nap in-between day while have time. we need some rest for other work in the upcoming day. now you fresh it means you can do your other work very easily.

Yes. I could get this. Good that I go to work in afternoon. That gives me this time to nap on days I need it. Good that I could take it otherwise I would have been yawning in front of children in session.
