B(2025·江苏宿迁泗阳期中)
Napping(小睡) is often connected with laziness, but it can be really helpful if done correctly. It can help improve your memory, emotions(情绪)and, of course, reduce tiredness.
If you can’t get enough sleep at night because of busy work or insomnia(失眠), taking a nap can help. However, if you aren’t napping properly, you might experience nighttime sleep problems or feel uncomfortable after waking up from a nap. Here, Dr Lindsay Browning shares his suggestions on how to take the perfect nap.
First, decide the length of your nap. To make sure you don’t feel uncomfortable after a nap, stick to either a short 20 - minute nap or a longer nap of at least 1 hour and 30 minutes. The body has sleep cycles(周期) of one and a half hours. If you wake up in the middle of the cycle during the deep sleep phase, you may feel worse than before the nap.
Second, take naps in the early afternoon. Napping late in the afternoon can interfere with your nighttime sleep, making it harder to fall asleep at night. If your normal bedtime is around 11 p. m., then you shouldn’t be napping any later than 2 p. m.
Third, avoid unintentional(无意识的) naps. Napping unintentionally in front of screens may reduce your need for sleep later. Besides, the blue light from smartphones, televisions and computers can reduce melatonin(褪黑素) that helps you sleep.
Fourth, give yourself time after a nap. After napping, you might feel a little disoriented(迷糊的). Give yourself some time to fully wake up before starting activities, especially those that require a quick reaction like driving.
