Napping improves your health.  No joke

-Taking a nap during the day can leave you feeling refreshed, recharged and ready to take on the world. 
New research suggests it could be good for your brain too.

-A study which analyzed data from people age 40 to 69 has shown daytime napping could slow the rate at which the brain shrinks as we age.

-The average difference in brain volume between nappers and those who were not… was equivalent to 2.6 to 6.5 years of aging, researchers found.

-They said they hope their findings into the health benefits of sleeping during the day will reduce any stigma that still exists around daytime napping.
