Take naps?

Day sleep?

I want one so bad - but 9 times out of 10 once I’m awake that’s it.

I used to be able to take twenty minutes very easily. Now I just can't unless I'm exhausted

Sometimes have a power nap. Be careful not to overdo it. I did an hour once and felt terrible afterwards.

I’ve found that 30 to 45 mins complete rest (using a timer) works.

I often start at 5am and sometimes finish as late as 11pm on the same day (not working straight through) so I often include naps in the afternoon, usually about 40mins. We have wellness rooms in our offices that can be used for this

Nope. I do a lot of driving and a power nap would literally be the death of me.

And I'm not being flippant either. If you get used to napping, you will eventually drop off or zone out at any time as your body starts to think it's OK to do it.

The number of drivers that do this is actually un real.

When I'm up then I'm up for the day. The only time I nap - or nod off - is when I'm caught up in the monotony of work and procrastination and take a quick nap.

I envy those who can take an armchair and just fall into a short slumber.

Always too busy for day time naps apart from when I am nightshift.

I've just woken up again, but then this is probably because I'm run down and rather unwell currently

My eyes have been known to close in meetings or seminars.

When I worked abroad we'd have two hours off at lunch, but I could never sleep, tended to look after my daughter and then put her down for the afternoon.

My power nap is now at 20.00 or 21.00, but after 45 mins I am wide awake til at least 1.00am.

I love a Power Nap but don’t have them often. When I need them usually 20-30 mins is the ideal for me.

They also broke up their night time sleep into two and would go visiting friends in between. As per Pepys.

I physically can't nap unless I'm poorly I find.

Feel like if I try I'm just lay there ages and it's a waste of my time
