Because of my waking and sleeping schedules, I only get about 5-6 hours of sleep per night. That would probably be enough for most people, but I find that I cannot make it through the next day without taking a nap. The thing is, I am so busy these days that I don’t really want to give up two hours to napping — which is why I’m interested in taking “power naps”.
Now, in order for power naps to be effective, you have to be able to fall asleep immediately. I can’t really do that, so I’m going to buy a CD of soothing, relaxing music to help me along. This CD called Music to Promote Sleep looks like it might be good to put into my Samsung player during snooze time. I’ll check this out (and a few others) to see if I can cut my naps down to 30 minutes or so.
