I'll get seven hours sleep a night, but after breakfast, I'll have an hour just resting, to recover. In Spain they all have siestas, even businessmen.
I don't sleep much. I think it's hereditary. My mom doesn't sleep. My dad never slept. My naps are definitely when I get the most sleep. I'm a big napper - that's when I get most of my sleep.
Nighttime, in a nanosecond, asleep by 10:30. No chance I'll get through the day without two naps. Before noon, around 11 A.M. I catch 30 minutes. Living not far from CBS is perfect because afternoons I go home for another.
I've learned very quickly to fall asleep wherever I can. I sleep in the car from event to event or show to show sometimes.
Short naps are good. Given modern workplace demands, this is not possible for many people - but if you have the option, try napping for ten to twenty minutes in the afternoon, preferably lying down in a darkened room.
I tell you, my naps are epic. They win awards.
To have power naps! In the past months, I have learned to have them everywhere I go, and that is key for my health. To eat healthy food is also essential - especially fruit, for the vitamins.
If you try to go for a big two-hour nap, you get groggy. You wanna just nap, like close your eyes a little bit and then just fall asleep for a little bit and then get up. Then be like, "okay, I'm up."
I can tell you I can work on four or five hours of sleep a night and cat nap all day, and I can go for 8 or 10 days on the road, and it doesn't seem to affect me.
I will occasionally take power naps on weekends and agree that they can be re-energizing.
I prefer eight hours of sound sleep at night. But on days when I can't, I try not to fuss about it and keep taking power naps through the day.
If I don't get eight hours, I can't function, so I'm a great believer in power naps.
Sometimes I can go out all night, but I'm a girl that needs at least 8 hours of snooze, so I stay in a lot.
