Yes I stole this quote from thee one and only Si! But he does have a point about how napping makes your life better! So if you don't have enough reason to take naps daily, I'll give you more incentive.
Our society now expects us to do SO much throughout a day, and we can do remarkable feats of awesomeness. But there is literally no way that we can keep up this extremely intense work ethic for so long. Odds are you are staying up till super late in the night for what ever reason. (Homework, studying, catching up on a TV show, playing Xbox, or just posting up with the homies) What ever the case is, you are in need of more sleep. So this is why napping is very important! But don't take naps during your class time, because that defeats some of the purpose of napping. Naps are best after you have had a long day of going to class, doing home work and studying. ( for example, I have class from 8:30-2:30 then I usually stay at the library until 4ish to get a majority of my homework done. Then I head back to my apt with my brain drained and body exhausted because the night before I stayed up a lot later than I should have. But Then It comes to Nap time!! Best part of the day because you get to relax and forget about your responsibilities for a little bit, and some benefits of napping is that it gives your brain and body a break from daily strain. Also, taking naps has been known to increase your memory, improve your mood, sharpen your senses and revitalize you, and the naps you take during the day may give you insights to your life that you might not have when you are in a deep sleep at night. But don't nap later than 6 or you will be up till 3am! And you will have to take a nap just to survive, rather than Napping For Pleasure.
So napping is good for you! besides feeling amazing it offers you many benefits!
"The desire for a short nap during the day does not arise out of laziness, rather the need for the body to rejuvenate."
