Taking a nap for longer than this time is actually equivalent to chronic suicide

In today's fast-paced life, for many office workers, after working for a morning, it would be best if they could have a good rest at noon to relax the body. It also helps them recharge for the afternoon work. I can say without hesitation that there is a lot of knowledge in this short nap. For example, the nap time should not be too long. If the nap time is too long, it will cause great harm to the body. If it lasts for a long time, it is almost the same as chronic suicide. Let's briefly talk about naps below.

1. Taking a nap is necessary

For many people, they feel sleepy at noon. This kind of sleepiness and napping makes them have no energy to do other things. In fact, it is normal to feel sleepy and nap in summer. This is because the temperature is higher in summer. The high temperature will cause the skin of the body to expand outward, speed up the body's metabolism, and speed up the blood flow in the body, which will increase the consumption of body functions and cause a feeling of fatigue.

For many modern office workers, the increasing work pressure will make them have no corresponding work and rest time, and they will appear drowsy in their daily work, not to mention the noon when the temperature is the highest. Such temperature will make people feel drowsy.

Therefore, for many office workers, it is necessary to take a short nap at noon every day. This is because at noon, the blood in the brain is much less than usual, and many functions of the body are in a state of obvious relaxation at this time. Such relaxation indicates that the body needs a comprehensive rest. If there is no rest, it will have a very bad impact on the work of the entire afternoon.

2. Do not take a nap for too long

Whether it is office workers or other social groups, it is best to take a break at noon, and a nap is undoubtedly the most suitable way.

For office workers, after a busy morning of work, the body needs to be adjusted well. After all, the body is not a machine and cannot work endlessly. If you take a short nap at this time, it can drive away the fatigue of the body.

At the same time, the body's endocrine system is in a relatively balanced state, which is a good supplement for energy for afternoon work. Of course, the nap time should not be too long. Generally speaking, a half-hour nap at noon every day is enough.

Some people say that taking a nap right after lunch is bad for the digestive system. Therefore, it is not recommended to take a nap immediately after lunch. It is best to wait for a while. In fact, the body's metabolism is very fast right after lunch.

This is because food stimulates the stomach, which increases the blood flow in the gastrointestinal tract and tends to reduce the blood supply to the brain, thus causing people to feel sleepy. If you take a nap at this time, it will definitely be good for your body.

However, the nap time should not be too long. The most suitable nap time is half an hour. Such a nap time is very helpful for body regulation.

In fact, research on sleep has been done abroad for a long time. The studies show that when you sleep for 10 minutes at noon, you will be more energetic than sleeping for an hour. When the sleep time is controlled within 30 minutes, it will be more helpful for regulating energy in the afternoon.

Therefore, people who take naps in life are advised not to sleep for two hours. Half an hour of sleep is enough to restore energy. If you take a long nap, it will affect your sleep at night and it is very likely to disrupt the body's original sleep pattern. In this way, it will have the effect of putting the cart before the horse and is not good for the body.

3. It is important to have your own sleep routine

In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, there has always been a saying: "When the Yin Qi is strong, one sleeps; when the Yang Qi is strong, one wakes up." It means that when the yin energy around you is too much, you should go to sleep, and when the yang energy around you is too much, you should wake up. In life, this kind of lifestyle is our schedule - go to bed late and get up early.

However, naps obviously do not conform to this statement. Therefore, it is very important to develop your own sleeping habits. Having a lunch break that belongs to your own schedule can be good for your body. However, if you do not plan your sleep time well, your sleep quality will definitely be very poor. For example, if you nap too long, it will affect the quality of your sleep at night.

Napping is also a kind of body clock. Reasonable nap time can boost people's spirits, and napping can give people better energy to complete work in the afternoon. Therefore, it is recommended that many office workers take a nap at noon, which is a good adjustment for afternoon work.

4. Sleep has a great impact on the body

Don’t underestimate this short nap. If you take a proper nap for half an hour, it can completely refresh you and make you feel like a new person. However, if the quality of sleep is poor, it can cause great harm to your body.

Take sleeping at night for example. According to international regulations, the sleep time should be controlled within 8 hours, but in today's society few people can reach this amount, especially for many office workers, who are thankful to get five hours of sleep, and staying up late to work overtime has long become commonplace.

In this case, it can have a weakening effect on the body's immunity. Staying up late for a long time will cause a decline in memory and it is also likely to cause the aging of body functions, which will lead to a variety of chronic diseases lurking in the body.

If you still bury your head in work at noon, it is very likely that your body's metabolic rate will be much higher than that of others. Such metabolism is very harmful to the body. For example, many office workers will suffer from hair loss, ugly complexion, etc. It can be seen that the quality of sleep has a huge regulatory effect on the body.

5. For many office workers, if they can take a break at noon, it will be very beneficial to their health.

When you are busy working all morning, the work pressure will increase your blood pressure, but taking a nap can lower the increased blood pressure.

Don't underestimate this short half-hour nap, it can replenish the body's energy, eliminate the fatigue caused by the morning work, and give people a new look and attitude to face the afternoon work.

Generally speaking, a short nap can relieve tension, because when the body concentrates on working in the morning, it will increase the body's metabolism, which will cause mental tension, and a nap can relieve this tension.

When taking a nap becomes a habit, you will find that it can make you feel relaxed, because during the nap you can forget about the things around you. At this time, you can relieve stress and feel better.

6. Wrong sleep is a hidden danger to the body

For office workers, lunch breaks are often taken in the office, most of the time at their seats with their eyes closed, or lying on their desks to rest. This type of nap is extremely harmful to the body.

Many times, poor sleep quality can cause obesity. This is because during sleep, the activities of the kidneys and gastrointestinal tract are much weaker than usual, and the metabolism will slow down at this time. However, when the sleep time is short, the body's growth hormone secretion will be excessive. Such secretion will produce a sense of hunger, which will stimulate the production of fat in the body, leading to obesity. It can be said that lack of sleep leading to obesity has become a major health killer for people today.

Obesity can be said to be the forerunner of many diseases, because the diseases caused by obesity are not uncommon in life. There are so many examples around us that it is too numerous to mention, so I will not go into details here.

Conclusion: Through the simple description above, I believe everyone has a simple understanding of the importance of lunch break. Nap is very helpful for the body, but if the way of nap is incorrect, it will cause great harm to the body. It is also common to cause stiff neck and damage to the cervical spine. Of course, nap still has more benefits. A half-hour nap is very good for the body. I hope the above text will be helpful for everyone’s daily life and maintain a full and enthusiastic attitude towards life to greet every day.
