The proportion of sleep stages is more important than the duration in terms of sleep quality. If you sleep for 6~8 hours, you should get 13%~23% of “deep sleep”, that is, 1-2 hours of “deep sleep” in a night, to be considered a good sleep. This wake up, you will feel refreshed, fatigue all gone.  2, a short nap to relax the mood after lunch visceral activity, the brain is relatively calm, the brain can easily enter a resting state when napping, the proportion of deep sleep is high.
