I can’t function without at the very least an hour nap. I am lucky enough that I can get a Gold Standard nap at least 3 days a week, when my dog goes to play group with the wonderful dog walker. I have found a 5-10 minute rest with my eyes shut really helps on busy days. For those I put a cold pack on my eyes and forehead, sometimes on my neck also. It helps my nervous system relax while staying awake. It’s great when I have a really bad headache too.
