Check
out the THREE MYTHS about
sleep
Power
Naps - What Most People Don't
Know About Naps

One of
the biggest questions I get
asked all the time is “Are
naps good for you? Or bad?
I've heard both sides of the
story.”
I'd like to settle this
argument once and for all
right here, and reveal to you
how you can properly manage
your sleep to create an
abundance of energy in your
life, with LESS sleep.
Yes, naps
are VERY good for you, IF you
understand how
the sleep system works,
and you know how to nap
PROPERLY.
In my
“Powerful Sleep” course I
teach people how to properly
understand their sleep system,
circadian rhythm, light
exposure, and how it affects
their inner sleep system.
While we can't get in this
article, here's what
is true:
Most
people don't realize that
sleep is actually quite a
complex and fascinating inner
system.
When we're sleeping,
we're not just dead zombies
off in an unknown universe. Your inner sleep system is a mechanism which
follows specific time periods
and stages to energize your
body.
So how do
you nap properly?
You take
what are commonly referred to
as “Power Naps”, or what I
usually refer to as “Stage 2
limited naps.”
You see,
when you sleep you go through
what are called “sleep
stages”, there are 5 stages
in total.
The first two stages,
Stage 1 and 2 are your
“Light Sleep”.
It's during this stage that we
sleep “lightly”, we are
easily wakable, and our
circadian rhythm isn't altered
enough to create a disturbance
in the sleep system.
The
Energizing effects of Stage 1
and 2 sleeps are very
beneficial, just 10 minutes of
sleeping in these stages can
restore your energy to the
point where you feel as if you
slept for 8 hours.
However,
why do most people do more
HARM than GOOD to themselves
by napping?
It's
simple, they don't know about
“deep sleep.” Deep sleep
comprises of all the other
sleep stages. It's during deep
sleep that your body undergoes
a MASSIVE physiological
change, your body temperature,
heart rate, respiration drops.
Your blood vessels dilate and
all the blood that is usually
stored in your main organs
during the day is channeled to
your muscles to repair them.
If
you enter deep sleep during
the day, your circadian
rhythm, and your “inner
sleep clock”
(see link below for
details) will be altered and
out of wack, often resulting
in an in-balanced, weak sleep system and lower energy levels all together.
For an
average person it takes about
45-90 minutes to enter “deep
sleep”, this is why for an
effective nap you MUST keep
your nap down to a MAXIMUM of
45 minutes. Even 45 minutes is
sometimes too much. The most energizing naps are usually 10 to 20 minutes
long.
If your
naps last too long, you will
enter deep sleep. Waking up
from a deep sleep phase is
more harmful to your sleep
system and your energy levels
than good! You will often feel
lethargic, low on energy, and
in that “zombie” state of
mind.
If you
use naps properly, you can
boost your energy levels
drastically, and lower your
sleep time down drastically.
However,
there are still two vital
things you must know about
napping in order to make them
super effective during your
day, so that you're capable of
lowering your sleep, and
boosting your energy.
1. You
must know exactly what the
best time during the day is to
take your nap.
2. You
must know what to do AFTER
your nap to speed up your body
temperature rise.
