About Gentle Nap - Power Napping & Sounds
Get new energy during the day
A short daytime nap can boost your memory, cognitive skills, creativity and energy level. It can also reduce stress, improve perception, motor skills and accuracy.
Snooze quickly
Watch the sunset to clear your mind. This helps to calm down and prepare your body for a after-lunch sleep. Use earphones or headphones to blend out noises from the environment. The ocean waves cover a wide frequency spectrum so that other noises get unnoticed by the brain. The sound of the ocean waves will decrease in volume over time. This will create a meditation kind of effect and take you to a light sleep phase.
Wake up gently from the catnap
Slowly increasing sound of birds twittering will get you out again of the light sleep phase. This pleasant sound signals your brain that there is no reason to speed up the wake up process and you get the maximum refreshment.
Power napping is possible everywhere
Whether you have a lunch break from hard work, are traveling by bus, train or plane or just had a bad night's sleep you can refresh best with a short nap. An afternoon nap of 10-30 minutes will keep you in the light sleep phase so you do not feel groggy when you wake up.
Features:
✓ Sleep Timer: A set timer of 30 minutes will turn off light and sound.
✓ Alarm Clock: Alarm will rise gently at end of powernap
