Power napping involves taking brief, strategically timed naps throughout the day to recharge your mental energy and focus. A short nap of really just no more than 20 minutes can significantly improve alertness and cognitive performance compared to a controlled group without napping. This is likely because short naps can enhance neural connections and increase the release of neurotransmitters promoting cognitive functions and performance. It's particularly beneficial for those experiencing afternoon energy slums or working long hours.
