The key thing, says Stanley, is howlong your nap lasts.Choose either a 20-or 90-mintute nap. “ When you fall asleep, youll quickly g

You dont want to wake updid before because thats when you wake and feel worse than you did before.” Nappingfor 20 minutes means you willwake up before you go into deep sleep;napping for 90minutes means youll complete a sleep
