Napping Is Making You Sleepier? Benefits and Tips to Know

Naps and sleep patterns

Naps help maintain total wellbeing. But they can result in problems when they are too long. A major problem is unstable sleep patterns. In some cases, naps can make you feel more groggy, and tired. Naps can also make you feel like you lack adequate sleep. When a nap is longer than 45 minutes, it may destabilize your natural sleep pattern, and make sleeping at night difficult. It can result in a dangerous pattern of being sleep deprived and having long naps during the daytime to feel better. If proper adjustment isn’t made, it can lead to several problems. If you want to get the best out of a nap, you should nap for 20-25 minutes. If the nap is longer, it may result in more problems.
