Whether you’re on vacation, at a motorway rest area, or at work, a siesta is highly recommended by experts.
Going to sleep, even for a few minutes, allows you to restore alertness and concentration.
When our body calls for sleep, should we fight to avoid it? Not quite, according to numerous studies published in recent years. Our brains are even programmed to do so, as explained in the column at the top of this article. Daily sleep is even recommended. Its ideal duration is 10 to 30 minutes. So a 20 minute nap will allow you to recover 35% of your productivity whether you’re on vacation, on the motorway, or even at work.
“The very fact that you can fall asleep even for ten seconds allows you to regain alertness, which, of course, will not last long, but enough to focus again on what you are doing.”even suggests Dr. Sylvia Royan-Parola, psychiatrist and sleep specialist.

And yet: almost 7 out of 10 French people do nothing during the week. France is lagging behind in this regard, while 69% of employees, for example, would agree to do this during the working day.
