For those who feel groggy after a "nap" I think there's a misunderstanding.

In this context taking a nap means: closing your eyes, relaxing your brain/whole body, and trying to empty your mind of all the thoughts that are usually racing around in there.

Most often you don't fall asleep in the first 15/20 minutes; and if you do it won't be a deep sleep that makes you feel groggy.

Practical tip: I use a timer App to make sure I know when to "wake up".



I am following this tip http://www.lifehacker.com.au/2009/08/from-the-tips-box-coffe... . There was a discussion about it in HN, could not find it.


I wrote an article about it too (which was actually featured on LifeHacker):
