How Does Naps Work?

[Jasz]

Everyone loves naps. But not everyone knows how naps work and how to make them work for you. When you nap, your body has to go through cycles of sleep in order to feel rested. A full sleep cycle takes about 90 minutes and consists of 5 stages:

1. Stage 1: This is the lightest stage of sleep. It only lasts a couple of minutes and you can be woken easily from this stage, feeling as if you haven't slept at all.

2. Stage 2: Your brain waves start to slow down and your body temperature drops. You're still very much awake during this stage.

3. Stage 3: You reach deep sleep here; it's harder to wake up out of this stage now, but if you do, you'll feel groggy and disoriented for a while because the sleep hasn't had time to fully take effect.

4. Stage 4: This is rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, where your brain starts processing information faster than ever before (that's why dreams occur during this stage). After reaching REM, your body will cycle back through stages 3, 2, and 1 before starting the cycle over again with stage 3.

5. Stage 5: This is the final lap aftter cycling through the first 4.

Taking nap is a very good habit.
Not only a good habit,but has a great role to play in the life of the human health.

Neglecting nap can build unnecessary illness.
If you dish taking your nap and put other things to cover the time for that, you're definitely choking your brain function.

Some people push aside taking nap, which is suppose to be planned among your daily schedule; to fix other things.
But the sleep you owe the night, sometimes is cut short by you, maybe because you're still working.
I mean doing some night online gigs or some other things that saps your strength.

This has many repercussions,like;
HEAD ACHE.
Not tapping time from your day to have your at least thirty minutes sleep at noon,is liable of making your head go hot.
You feel this unnecessary head ache,like migraine and some other kinds of ache.

BODY ACHE:
It also bring about body pain that will push you to go taking medication when you're suppose to do the right thing by sleeping
Your body is not a robot that can work without having it's rest and sleep.

DIZZINESS:
You become dizzy,even whily you are at work or doing something important.
This is one of the reason why some people happens to slump in the public.
