I love me a couple hour afternoon nap. Usually get one 4 out of 7 days now that I’m retired from my career. Who else loves a nap?

I am a great power napper. 15-30 minutes feels great.
I think, therefore I am, conservative.

I find napping is almost impossible for me. I can’t turn my mind off and I feel like I just can’t relax enough to fall asleep. If I don’t feel good I’ll nap and on the days when I get up early to fish I’ll sometimes catch a quick nap but normally I’ll just sit back and relax…kinda like a bird nap.

If only I could nap as you guys are suggesting. I suffer from insomnia and it's a rare and lucky thing to get more that 4 hours sleep a day. The only time I actually sleep longer are the times that I have had the flu or recovering from surgery.

Ron Same here. Been doing it for years so it's not a "getting old" thing for me. I get up early every day. 5am when I'm working. 6 or so when off I've never been bore sleeping yet.

Started on the farm as a kid. Up at 4:30 for barn chores then right after lunch, take a 15-20 minute power nap, then back to work. Still do the nap even today as a retired person.

The only time I actually sleep longer are the times that I have had the flu or recovering from surgery. Dr. Andrew Huberman has lots of good info on sleep on his podcasts. He is a real DR. and professor, not some web quack. Might be worth looking into.

Was a normal part of life for country folks back in the 70s when I was a kid, my grandfather and my dad were both dairy farmers, it was a given almost every day at noon right after lunch they would take a short nape on the recliner than head back outside and work for the rest of the day.

Almost never nap, maybe 3-4 times a year, usually on a weekend when I nod off during a ball game or something. It's not that I don't get sleepy during the day sometimes, it's just if I try to nap my mind takes off.
