How to take a healthy nap for office workers
4hw.com.cn: in general, office workers take a nap at noon when they have a rest. Because of the limited space in the office, sleeping is not convenient. So how do office workers take a healthy nap?
Prepare an inflatable neck pillow in the Office
Although nap time is short, but there are many things to pay attention to, the correct sleeping posture is not to compress the internal organs. It's better to sleep on the bed or sofa, head high and feet low, and take the right lying position to reduce the pressure on the heart. If conditions do not allow it, prepare an inflatable neck pillow, put it around your neck, and then find a chair with a back and sit for a nap. It's much better than sleeping on the table.
Prepare a thin blanket or coat in the Office
When people are sleeping, their muscles are flabby, their capillaries are dilated, their sweat holes are dilated, and if they don't keep warm properly, they are likely to cause colds or other diseases. So it's better to prepare a thin blanket or a coat in the office, and do a good job of keeping warm when taking a nap. Even in summer, most of the offices have air conditioning, with low temperature. In addition, we need to pay attention not to let the air conditioner or fan directly blow to the body to avoid direct blowing.
Drink a glass of water after waking up
Generally speaking, people need a period of time to slow down after waking up. It's better to drink a glass of water first and recover energy before starting work. Especially for some complicated or dangerous work, do not rush to work immediately.
Take a 15 minute break after lunch
Most white-collar workers don't have a long rest at noon. They have to eat and take a nap. The time is really racing against the clock. In order to have more time to rest, some white-collar workers take a nap as soon as they have finished their lunch. This kind of practice will only lead to a large amount of blood flow to the stomach, blood pressure drop, brain support and nutrition drop significantly, leading to the problem of insufficient blood supply to the brain. After lunch, you'd better take a rest of about 15 minutes, and then take a nap. After lunch, it is not suitable to put into work immediately, which will reduce the blood flow to the gastrointestinal tract, affect digestion, and easily lead to indigestion. In addition, it's better not to eat too greasy or full lunch.
A nap position
Should be head high and feet low, right side lying position. This will reduce the pressure on the heart and prevent snoring. Moreover, white-collar workers should not form the habit of lying on the table in the afternoon nap, because this will reduce the blood supply to the brain and make people feel dizzy and powerless after waking up, which is the symptom of brain hypoxia and ischemia.
