Beyond the Nap: The Science of Slowing Down
The secret to a great nap starts before you close your eyes. Taking a few minutes to unwind after a meal — the relaxed time lingering at the table, letting your mind settle — naturally lowers your heart rate and primes your body for restorative rest.
Pro Tip
Try a "Nappuccino": drink a coffee immediately before your 20-min nap. The caffeine kicks in just as you wake up.
