A Greek study found that men who took a 30 minute nap at least 3 times per week lowered their risk of dying from a heart attack by 37%! Power naps also helped with weight loss and improved alertness, mood and performance.

Researchers found that 10 minute nap helps uplift mood and fends-off afternoon energy slumps. They found that 20 minute naps are revitalizing and help sharpen the sensess. Thirty minute naps improved memory and physical health.
