Next Experiment - Naps

I am clearly in thesis land as I just noticed that it has been exactly a month since I posted last. While I have been inspired by a number of subjects and articles lately that I wanted to post on, I have not had the time nor the energy. I did, however, come across a great tip from my buddy Ted on power napping.

The software, created by Pzizz, essentially generates MP3 files that you can listen to for either taking an energizing nap or putting yourself into a deep sleep. You can download a free sample but the benefits of purchasing the software enables youto create a new nap each time with different durations, sounds, etc.

Since I am currently getting about 4-5 hours of sleep per day trying to finish my first thesis draft, I have decided to give this a try. I took an "energizing nap" last night and definetly fell asleep. The track claims it will wake you up after 15 minutes but I only woke up when the next track, a Jurassic 5 tune, jolted me back into the real world. I must say for not using headphones the first time, which is highly recommended, it seemed to have some stimulating effects and I worked until 2 am.

Will continue to test this and keep you all updated. Check it out and report back.
