How to improve your naps, according to experts

We all have trouble sleeping sometimes, no matter how much effort we put into improving our sleep hygiene. "When you're struggling with your sleep, you'll probably feel moody, anxious, maybe even with some mild depressive symptom," Pereira said. "If you are very sleep deprived when you start your nap, your brain may progress to deep sleep more quickly," the CDC advises. "As a result, sleep inertia may last longer making it more difficult for you to wake up and feel alert even after a short time asleep." "Don't try to necessarily introduce napping just because you happen to sleep poorly on the night before because that may not turn out well," Pereira said.
