We usually have lunch at 12:00,with 30 minutes left to have a rest.I used to take a nap during the left time and if seem that even a few minutes deep sleep can keep the whole afternoon fresh and energetic.If there is something disturbed and cannot sleep then I will feel drowsy all afternoon.
Do you take a nap at noon?

The same circumstance like you from time to time.Sometimes I feel even more sleepy after a short nap.But fortunately.I am good in my sleeping quality.Perhaps even when there occurs an earthquake,I am still falling asleep regardless of the severe noise.

Yes, I do take naps when I can. I used to think that only lazy people slept during the day, but that was before I had nights when I couldn't sleep well, and before I got old and tired! I can usually sleep for an hour and feel much better when I wake up.

When I am tired,maybe I will choose that way to take a break.But sometimes the time is limited and my work is heavy,so I have no time to take a nap at all.
And occasionally I feel even a bit more tired after taking a nap after that,but sometimes I refresh myself agasin contrastively.What a contradiction for me!

Hi ann,
I have one hour for lunch, I would go out with my colleagues for lunch. We would try new places or explore new routes around our office building. I do not like to be cooped up in the office the whole day long so lunch hour is the time to get some fresh air. 
I have heard taking a nap after lunch is good but make sure you do not lie down immediately on a full stomach or put pressure on your stomach. It could cause indigestion or the food might go a wrong way

Hi Ann! I love taking naps. I usually take mine late in the afternoon when I'm too tired working. Like you, it helps me feel energetic.

I don't like to sleep or take naps during the day, it sucks the energy right out of me.
Gotta keep moving and doing something.
