But it does suck when you try to doze off for a few and don’t really fall asleep, or wake up feeling groggy because you didn’t time it right (REM cycles, man). And sometimes, you don’t have time for a nap. Another option: NSDR. This energy-restoring alternative is a meditation-ish practice that’s supposedly more restorative than a simple mid-day lie down, refueling your energy in just 10 minutes. We’re not saying it’s time to give up napping for good. But it’s wise to familiarize yourself with this new option.
