The lunch break is a rare break for office workers. There is a saying: "If you don't sleep at noon, you will collapse in the afternoon." So how can office workers take a nap to be healthy? Let's take a look together.

How do office workers take a nap to be healthy?

Office workers are very particular about the way of a nap. Taking a nap will not only not achieve the effect of rest, but it will make you more tired. Only a correct nap can make your mental state better. Generally half an hour after lunch, you can lie down and sleep, but if you don’t have the conditions to lie down, you can consider buying a neck pillow. During the lunch break, you can put on a neck pillow and rest against the wall and other supports for a while.

The proper time for a nap is half an hour, so as not to affect the normal sleep at night. The average person's sleep can be divided into light sleep and deep sleep. After 30 minutes, they will gradually enter deep sleep. The inhibition of the central nervous system of the brain will deepen, and the metabolism of the body will be slowed down. If you wake up at this time, you will feel uncomfortable and more sleepy. You may feel dizzy and unable to concentrate on work. The nap time should not be too long, about 20-30 minutes is appropriate.

You may not feel sleepy sometimes, so you don't have to be forced to fall asleep. You can close your eyes first, and then focus your energy on your breathing and slow your breathing. Even if we just lie down for 20 minutes and haven't fallen asleep at all, closing our eyes and resting for a while will help us regain our spirits.

In addition, it should be noted that some white-collar workers who love beauty wear contact lenses, but it is best to take them off during a nap, otherwise, they will shed tears when they wake up and have blurred vision. Because when people close their eyes, oxygen penetrates through blood vessels, but contact lenses block this way. The eyes are "stuffed to breathe" and the cells will be damaged. A little carelessness can easily lead to infection, leading to dry eye, Corneal ulcers, and so on.

In addition, after falling asleep, the muscles will relax, the capillaries will expand, and the sweat pores will be enlarged. If you don't keep warm properly, you will be susceptible to colds or other diseases. So pay attention to keeping warm when you take a nap in the office. In addition to avoiding air conditioners and electric fans blowing directly on your body, you should also prepare a small blanket and cover it to keep you warm during your lunch break.
