According to the theory of Chinese medicine, a day is divided into 12 hours, and an hour is divided into two hours. Noon is between 12: 00 and 1: 00, which is suitable for our rest. Because this time is just after lunch, at this time, the blood in the body will be concentrated in the stomach to digest the food in the stomach, and the brain will cause temporary hypoxia, thus forming the habit of people wanting to sleep.
You know, if we do some exercise properly after lunch, and then rest for 20 minutes to half an hour at this time, it is extremely beneficial to our health, and it will make us feel refreshed in the afternoon work, promote blood circulation in our bodies and accelerate our metabolism, so taking a nap is a great thing for our health.
Not only because of the so-called tradition, we insist on taking a nap. According to relevant medical data, taking a nap can really improve our cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and effectively prevent the occurrence of Alzheimer's disease. Therefore, if conditions permit, especially young people nowadays, we should create some conditions for taking a nap at noon, so that we can have a good rest and help us sleep at night, so I think we should actually stick to the good habit of taking a nap.
