I will combine what little I've gotten from my doctor about how to help improve my quality of sleep with what I've learned from this book in following weeks and see if incorporating a regular nap schedule into my life improves things for me. Perhaps at that time I can provide a better review, and I may decide it deserves a better rating then. For now, though, my gut reaction is that it warrants three stars out of five, with a feeling that I've been thoroughly converted by the napping gospel, but perhaps not properly prepared to put its teachings to good use. ( ) This lady was preaching to the choir! I love naps, so it was nice to finally receive some validation for my sleepy ways. In all seriousness, this was a pretty interesting book about how and when and how long to sleep if you want to achieve different effects. Sleeping at certain times and for certain lengths supposedly can increase creativity or alleviate sleep deficits, etc. Anyway, if you're always tired during the day, check this one out for a look at how power naps can help you be more productive and alert. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML:Imagine a product that increases alertness, boosts creativity, reduces stress, improves perception, stamina, motor skills, and accuracy, enhances your sex life, helps you make better decisions, keeps you looking younger, aids in weight loss, reduces the risk of heart attack, elevates your mood, and strengthens memory. Now imagine that this product is nontoxic, has no dangerous side effects, and, best of all, is absolutely free. This miracle drug is, in fact, nothing more than the nap: the right nap at the right time. The work of Sara C. Mednick, Ph.D., a researcher at the Salk Institute and the leading authority on the study of the nap, Take a Nap! Change Your Life. is the scientifically-based breakthrough program that shows how we can fight the fatigue epidemicâ??which afflicts an estimated 50 million Americansâ??through a custom-designed nap. Take a Nap! Change Your Life. explains the five stages of the sleep cycle, particularly Stage Two, Slow Wave Sleep, and REM, and the benefits each one provides; how to assess your tiredness and set up a personal sleep profile; and how to neutralize the voice in your head that tells you napping is a sign of laziness. (Not that anyone would have called JFK, Churchill, Einstein, or Napoleon a slug-a-bed.) It shows us how to determine exactly when our optimum napping time is, and exactly how long we should try to sleepâ??even how itâ??s possible to design a nap to inspire creativity one day, and the next day design one to help us with our memory. There are tips on how to create the right nap environment, a 16-step technique for falling asleep, and more. * This audiobook edition includes a downloadble PDF containing a Glossary of Terms, as well as charts from th Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
