Even animals such as cats, dogs etc practice napping because they know the benefit :) . As for we humans, so many activities that we are engaged in doesn't make us take a nap. Napping comes with so many benefits if practiced on a daily. Napping helps to make one stay alert especially during strenuous days. Instead of taking coffee to stay awake/alert during strenuous days, take a nap instead and you will be more refreshed all through the day. Another importance of taking a nap during strenuous days is that, it helps to improve learning and working memory. When you seem to lose concentration wheb handling a difficult task, just know that you are stressed and need to take a nap. Napping helps to keep one healthy. If one refuses to sleep and is always being stressed out, the body begins to release stress hormones which is very dangerous to the health. When you take a nap, anti-stress hormones are released which helps to keep the body healthy. Lastly, people who deprive their body from sleep are always moody due to build up of stress hormones. Napping helps to improve ones mood which will get them going on their various day to day activities.
