If you take a siesta, do you feel like you are wasting precious moments?

We all need a break every once in a while! Do not feel guilty!

[Uty Theo]

A siesta does more good to me than harm. I would kill for a chance to have a siesta everyday. It cools my head.

[King Belieal]

How I so much crave for a siesta. This is something I used to have in abundance years ago. Siesta time. Nowadays, I am begging for just 10 minutes to close my eyes. It is really choked up for me everyday.

[Jem Smith]

I wish I could. At the moment I just don't have the time during the day for one. I also have trouble falling asleep quickly, especially during the day, so at best it would be a rest for me, not a sleep.

[Presh]

It is very important to take a siesta. Even if it is just for an hour. It would do your body and your mind lots of good.

[SHAHID987]

It is my daily routine to take it, as it rejuvenate my power of working if one is not agree then just Google it to find out as what are the benefits of it.

[Sunky]

Siestas are so important. I spend my break at work taking a nap. It helps me a whole lot. I eat much later after the end of break.

[freelancermariagrace]

Yes, I do. I sleep for a couple of minutes daily, especially in the afternoon. I can do it because I work from home. That is the beauty of being an online freelancer.

This is how I usually feel most times honestly. This is one reason why I find it hard to actually get some sleep.

[Treborika]

l have become so busy oflate that l can't get even some time for the siesta. I wish l could have it.

Very rarely do I need to take a siesta but when I feel the need I don't think it is a waste of time at all. It is something very common in Spain, some companies are even close to letting the employees take the siesta.

[sabtra]

I feel lucky I manage to fall asleep in the afternoon, seems like not everyone is able to.
I usually don't feel the need to take a nap but when I happen to wake up early in the morning I may indulge in a siesta.
I'm less productive as well as grumpy when tired, so taking a nap is actually a good solution.
Definitely better than smoking or eating unhealthy snacks to keep oneself awake.

I work from home and often take a nap during my lunch break. Personally I believe that it is helpful and results in having more energy during the working day whilst reducing the hours I spend in bed during the night.

When you take a siesta, do you need silence? I need white noise. For example, I need a box fan on.

When you take a siesta, do you need silence?

I find it difficult to sleep if there is any noise. I generally try to take a nap when I am the only one in the house, so it will not be noisey

There is always noise in my house. Although one roommate has 3 jobs, the other roommate has the living room television on at all hours of the day.

[Fergal]

Maybe try using earplugs Spontaneo.

I take a nap 2 or 3 times a day for safety. If I don't, I will fall asleep in my computer chair and possible fall out and hurt myself.

[Spontaneo]

I would @Fergal but am afraid of not hearing my ringtones for calls and texts.

I once did chair yoga. So many people praise yoga. Afterward, I went to take a shower and almost fell asleep in the shower. I could have gotten hurt. Never again.

I put my phone on airplane mode anytime I take a nap. Why would you want to hear calls and texts when you are taking a nap? Are any of them really that important that they need to interrupt your short nap?
