In this episode of Best Night Ever, Dr. Jay Khorsandi dives deep into the science—and art—of napping. From ancient traditions to cutting-edge studies, you’ll learn why short naps aren’t just a guilty pleasure—they’re one of the most underutilized tools for cognitive performance, emotional balance, and even anti-aging.

Discover the ideal nap duration for memory, mood, and physical recovery. Learn about advanced hacks like the coffee nap, pink noise, and wearable tech for optimizing your HRV. Plus, hear how global cultures like Spain, Japan, and China have long embraced the midday snooze—and what modern chronobiology has to say about it.
