Wellness
Works like a charm.
ManyTikTokers are fans of short creativity naps, but the idea originated way earlier.
The key, though, was that heonly slept for a few brief moments.
The goal is to wake up during the transitional period betweenbeing awake and asleep.
Its also something it’s possible for you to recreate on your own.
The2021 study focused on math problems, so an Edison-style creativity nap might also help you solve an equation.
A sneaky snooze might even help when youre stuck on theNYTs Connections for the day.
Get comfortable and let your muscles relax.
The ideal nap should be five minutes or less.
Hopefully, when you head back to work youll feel creative, productive, and ready to problem-solve.
