Question:
Should I be napping during the day?
La siesta esenciales
Siesta tiene un estigma negativo más - que la siesta debe ser reservado para los muy jóvenes, muy viejo o muy enfermo. Sin embargo, muchos adultos sanos de la siesta y no son afectados negativamente por él. Sin embargo, quienes se encuentran excesiva necesidad de dormir - siestas veces a la semana junto con el resto de las buenas noches - deben tener su siesta hábitos estudiados por un profesional médico. Según la Fundación Nacional del Sueño, nappers debe seguir las siguientes reglas para asegurar que la siesta es un acontecimiento saludable.
- La longitud derecha: una siesta corta es usualmente recomendada (20 a 30 minutos) para el estado de alerta a corto plazo. Este tipo de siesta proporciona un beneficio significativo para el estado de alerta y rendimiento mejorados sin dejar que se sienta mareado o interferir con el sueño durante la noche.
- El entorno de la derecha: a su alrededor puede ser de gran impacto en su capacidad para quedarse dormido. Asegúrese de que usted tiene un lugar tranquilo para descansar y que la temperatura en la habitación es cómoda. Trate de limitar la cantidad de ruido escuchado y el alcance de la luz que se filtraba pulg
- El momento adecuado: si usted toma una siesta demasiado tarde en el día, podría afectar sus patrones de sueño durante la noche y hacer que sea difícil quedarse dormido en su horario regular para dormir.
- Alteración de la post-siesta y la desorientación es más grave, y puede durar más tiempo, en personas que están con falta de sueño o dormir una siesta durante períodos más largos. Cuando se despierte de una siesta se puede sentir la inercia del sueño, que se define como una sensación de aturdimiento y desorientación que puede venir con el despertar de un sueño profundo. Si bien este estado por lo general sólo dura unos minutos a media hora, puede ser perjudicial para aquellos que deben realizar inmediatamente después de despertar de un período de siesta.
- Siesta puede tener un efecto negativo en otros períodos de sueño. Una siesta larga o una siesta tomada muy tarde en el día pueden afectar negativamente a la duración y calidad de sueño nocturno. Si tiene problemas para dormir por la noche, una siesta sólo se amplifican los problemas.
