Nowadays, busy lifestyle of people does not allow them sleep enough at night (National Sleep Foundation, 2011). This lifestyle causes that most of people are ** drowsy ** and their efficiency is less than it should be. Napping increases the efficiency of people and even helps them to have a better health.

Some people thinks that taking naps cause sleep inertia effect. This effect brings disadvantages for people who take naps because produce ** laziness ** affecting performance of people (National Sleep Foundation, 2011). Also, to take naps causes troubles in normal sleep periods (National Sleep Foundation, 2011). To a certain extent they are right because in fact take naps cause sleep inertia effect. But this effect only has a** length ** of a few minutes. Some researchers have discovered that taking short naps instead to bring disadvantages, bring many benefits.

Also, people who take short naps improve their health.

Napping helps to people to have a better health with this break of daily and hard activities of people nowadays. Taking short naps help people to have a better life away from the troubles that involves the lifestyle of people nowadays.

Taking a nap help people to get some rest from the hard routine, replace energy and go ahead. Napping has been being in a habit which improves the life of people and that nowadays is practiced for a lot of people in the world. This habit has been being for me in part of my life and effectively it has made me a person more efficient. Taking a nap is only a time of relaxation which people can give themselves to have a little “breath” of their daily and hard lifestyle.
