193: The POWER of a NAP

Sleep inertia in the form of a short nap will add years to your life and life to your years.  Today’s topic is the POWER NAP

Today's Lexi: 

Συνήθειa – Synítheia – Habit

In Today’s Episode:

My father, Tasso, God rest his soul, lived to the age of 90.  He naturally abided by a healthy, Mediterranean lifestyle.   All my life I was struck by his habits; slow chewing of whole foods, moving his own body to lift, move, and carry things.  His zest for life was evident as he was always ready for Kefi time.   

Although all of that was part of his regular routine: the one staple he always participated in without fail was to nap.  He laid down for 30 to 60 minutes every single day.    

Tassos’ Good Health/Nap scenerio is living proof that resting is good for the mind and body, but there is also scienticfic research to support this healthy habit.  . 

Napping, Nani, siesta, la somme, pisolino and drzemki – however you refer to it, is a nutrient for the body and the mind

Kiki shares more on the benefits of a POWER NAP during today’s episode.
