We all know that taking a nap in the afternoon is somehow brings a positive energy to us. It revives our resistance and give us a recharge energy to do other things and task in the evening.
However, there are times, eventhough you already take your nap, still you will somehow feel sleepy. Chances are, after a couple of hours sleep, you like to take another 15 minute nap. Hence, you take your nap twice.
How about you, do you also take it twice a day? Or a couple of hours will do?

hell0! almost never.. I never take a nap because I don't feel tired the most of the time. I only take some when I feel really really tired and have been at the university for a whole day !

funny, i just took a nap. If my daughter did not wake me up, i am still in bed right now. I find it every time very comfy to lie down after a heavy meal. lol I take naps once a day but not every day. I am actually suppose to iron some clothes. My iron table is beside my daughter's bed. The bed was so inviting, 'twas hard to resist.

As much as I would like to take a nap during daytime, I have no time for that. I have a very busy life studying, working, doing homework and some other things. I hope someday I can have more free time so I can take naps.

I used to take naps everyday, but I don't even remember the last time I took one now. For me, when I get the sleep I need during the night then my body doesn't really need a nap. I wish I had time for naps though because I still remember how nice they used to be.

Lucky to have even thought over of taking a nap in a day. but I am sure shall enjoy taking one or two hour sleep in a day & sure I'll be able to do that.
I now enjoy seeing people taking naps inside an important meeting and snoring too.

I love taking naps, especially when it's my day off. I sometimes take 3-4 naps in a day. There are also times when I feel sleepy even though I just woke up. Coffee is only the solution to my ever sleepy head. Second is when I decide to go out of the house.

if we sleep more than 8 hours theres a tendency that we become more sleepy during the day than those who sleep less than 8 hours though not less than 3 hours. for me i take a nap twice a day since i just stay at home and nothing to do so every time i got tired and feel bored i just take some nap.

when i'm in the office i usually take a nap after eating lunch and it usually took me to rest for about 20-30 minutes a day.
for me it is very important to take a nap because it really regain my strength and i feel alive especially when there are works to be done.

As far as I am concerned, I think I usually have a nap just as I want. I think if I feel a little tired or sleepy, I think I will have a nap first ,when the time I awake up, thst time , I will be full of energy ,which I will continue to do my job at my hands.

It all depends on what you are doing. There are times when work pressures don't allow me to take the daytime nap. I don't regret that. Nor do I miss it. On other occasions, I have all the time in the world to doze off more than once during the day. I make it a point not to sulk either way. Enjoy what I am doing without any grouse or compunction!!!

I usually take a nap each time I feel sleepy when I'm at home. Sometimes I take it once or twice. When I'm in the office I don't take a nap of course. I have to drink coffee for me to feel revived and energized. If ever the guards will catch me sleeping during office hours even if I'm a Supervisor they will give me an infraction. hahaha!

I don't usually nap during the day. For some reason the only time I can is when I'm sick as a dog. I've tried, but when I'm laying there I always feel like I'm missing out on something that's going on. Ofcourse by the end of the day I'm always exhausted, though. I wish it were possible for me to take short naps on a daily basis, but I just can't do it!

I usually take a short nap after school. It happens around four or five o'clock in the afternoon. I feel pretty exhausted after a long school day and I just don't feel like doing homework. I take a short nap, like 15-30 minutes, and start doing homework then. I feel much fresher and my brain is ready for work again.

I don't really nap on a regular basis. Some days I'm just feeling overly tired and if I have the time I may lie down. I tend to nap once in a while on the weekends, again if I'm home and feeling tired. Naps can be nice once in a while but I don't think it would be good for me to take one every day. It would really mess up my nightly sleep schedule! I honestly think the only time I've ever taken a nap more than once in a day is when I've been sick.

I take a nap after lunch and it goes this way. First, I can't open my eyes and remain like this for about 15 minutes then I sleep for an hour. I want to sleep more but due to the fact that I had done my nap, and have no more incentive to sleep, I have to be awake until I get sleepy again at night.

I don't take a nap during the day. I think my night nap is replenishing enough. If I feel really tired, then I take a day nap. I am usually not all busy but spend alot of freetime on MyLot
