Sleep is an essential part of our health and wellness—it impacts our mood, memory, metabolism, immune systems and more. Research shows that getting 7–9 hours of restful sleep every night can make a world of difference, but sometimes we all need a midday pick-me-up. In fact, a quick, 20-minute nap in the middle of the day can help you feel more rested and alert and not impact your night time sleep.
