@@Pixelynx - I work in a high tech company doing R&D works. Most of my time is running tests. Most of the tests take hours to complete (some took 72 hrs). Yep, I got a lot of NAP times at work.
My granddaddy always took an afternoon nap and lived 'til he was 92. At 74, I am getting over my "guilt" about taking naps or sleeping too much and now let my body tell me what it needs. Meditation is a wonderful de-stressor, too.🕊
I used to feel guilty too, “Is a waste of time” is what I used to say, that was until i experienced good quality sleep + long hours of sleep, my life simply change and I won’t go back to sleeping little hours!! Good luck 🍀 ❤
As a species we’ve devolved into techno slobs. All of us should step away from our phones, tablets, tv’s and spend more time outdoors. Great vid as usual, doc 👍
Mmmm---I live in a tiny "apartment" (an old motel turned into studio places for low income people, not even a kitchen) which is just 500 feet from one of the busiest freeways in America. The secondary road that is right outside, my door is also extremely busy, super narrow with no shoulders (no safe place to walk, and the police don't really want anyone walking it), and the nearest park is 4.5 miles away. Hard to get outdoors---this place is not at all meant for outdoor activities, the property owner not the least interested in making the small yard anything but neat and clean. It's only used by the one dog and the (far too many) cats that live here.
Really hope, i could be like you someday, Dr Berg. im also a medical doctor. More and more to study if i wanna be like you, sir 😀 Regards from Malaysia
Napping offers various benefits for healthy adults, including: Relaxation. Reduced fatigue. Increased alertness. Improved mood. Improved performance, including quicker reaction time and better memory.
Thank you Dr Berg. I get interrupted sleep over 8 hours. I feel guilty if trying to nap because it seems like like time needs to be used to get things done. When I have tried to nap, I tend to want to listen to audio on the I-pad. I am a senior. Thanks so much for your videos.
Well, look at it like this, for all the benefits a nap offers it should be on our to do list, just as important as exercise, eating right, brushing your teeth etc. No need to feel guilty.
I sleep 4 to 6 hours a day. This has been normal for me for almost 50 years. If I do sleep close to 7 hours I feel horrible, washed out, and drained. If I feel a bit tired a 10 to 15 minute power nap or meditation period recharges me for hours.
Dr Berg, it’s not the tapping of the marker that makes me take a nap, it’s your voice! It’s so soothing. Keep up the great work! Virtuel hugs from Montreal 😊😉🥰
When I get a place of my own, I'm gonna have my desktop in a special shed, which will be my online working place. Comfy and more like a tiny house, but there I'll put my PC and most electronics. That way my 'house' is as free as possible from Wifi and such, especially bedrooms! This idea came to mind as I watched this, thanks Dr!
Ha ha, the sound of your pen tapping was delightful for me. I read a previous comment of someone who's also gotten addicted to the sound of your repeated pen opening and now I'm entranced as well. ☺️
I eat nutritional yeast before I sleep a massive amount that's my last meal with apple Clyder vinegar n olive oil. I wake up every morning like a new man.
You are just simply the BEST, thank you very much Dr. Eric for these health insights I've learned so much from you, always watching your videos and implementing them in my life. Best regards from Colombia!
Sleep is so important! My energy level is so much higher when I manage to get 8 hours quality deep sleep instead of less.... Thank you Dr Berg! So now I know napping is actually helpful!
Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) taught to take a nap in the afternoon. Those who follow really reap the benefits 👍 Thanks Doc to reinstate the fact.
"That energy affects YOUR energy"... SO true!! On average I get about 5 hours but thank you Dr. Berg and what do you think of Meditation and also, ASMR? Would love to hear your opinion on these!!🤗
Also, @Dr. Berg you're voice is relaxing enough to produce meditation &/or relaxation CDs, digitally, etc.... I miss my relaxation cassettes I used to listen to in HS to help me fall asleep & usually stay asleep. Thank you for this video!
Usually about 6.5 - 7 hrs sleep per night. I rarely get a straight 8 hrs. If I have a nap, I tend to wake up feeling really groggy and it takes a while to clear. I usually only have a nap when I feel that if I dont lie down, I'm going to fall down and just go to sleep on the floor.
My whole life I've struggled with getting to sleep and staying asleep. I'd say on average I get about 4-6 hours of sleep but I also have horrible nights where I can only manage about 2-3 hours. (Like tonight! 😩)
This is great my granddaughter just turned 15 and she use to tell me when she turned 10 she didn’t need to nap anymore, started back to school this week and she told me she wished she could take a nap now. She said you were right Nana about one of these days I would wish for that nap. 😉
I like the sound of rain. I get about 6-7 hours of sleep every night. 10p.m, until about 4 am. Then I get up for a bathroom break or I am stuffed up then I find it difficult to get back to sleep. After about 15 minutes of TV I can fall back to sleep, but I like a nap in the afternoon sometimes. Between 1p.m. and 3 p.m. I like a snooze. Sometimes it's only for an hour or so but I feel refreshed. My husband thinks 'nap' is a dirty word and he resists, but sometimes I catch his eyes closing while we watch TV. I think this video has helped him get it.
I never take a nap because I am still sleepy when I wake up after a nap. Takes hours to get more or less fit and when it s time to go to bed in the evening I cannot sleep...I think my body needs an X-amount of sleep and that's it.
@@ROBDee-ho9lu best amount of nap-time is 10, 20 of 40 mlnutes. My grandmother just sat comfortable on a chair, closed eyes, with her keys in her hand. Fell asleep ...And the moment the keys fell down (because the body was TOTALLY RELAXED) she woke up and moved on........
I am 70 years old and got a Fitbit watch to track my sleep. My average sleep over the past 30 nights is 5 hours 45 minutes (4 hours 45 minutes sleep and up to 1 hour awake time )
I have "sleep phases"...will get 7-9 for a few days, then 5 or 6 for a couple days and occasionally pull an all-nighter. Naps are a wonderful respite especially during the short phase so I am very happy to see this vid. Covid quarantine has impacted the time i am able to fall asleep for some reason. Am over 70. 😴😴😴🤣🤣
I had to drink coffee to keep me awake in the day Stopped 2 weeks ago Now im sleepy all day and have to take 20-30min naps Feel more energized and alert after napping Never ever took a nap when I used to drink coffee couldn't sleep at night.
I get around 7,5 hours sleep, since i started a more natural routine: 20 hours all devices turned off; 21 hours preparing for sleep, brushing teeth, meditate etc. 22. hours i go to sleep and I wake up at 7.30 |(i never fall straight away in sleep though anymore). since this routine i feel much better.
Dr Berg the best and very articulate he delivers and explains well I like the way he explains to make people easy to understand. I love following/ watching his videos awesome 😎
🤣😂😁 I like the tapping during the video, but if I heard that during a nap, I'd be trying to find who was interfering with my much-needed second sleep!! I get only about five hours a night of sleep, on a good night---it's getting a bit better now that I'm on the keto lifestyle---so a daily nap is essential. I'm 67, retired, dealing with a lot of health issues that I'm striving to heal through keto and taking ACV and lemon water (more than daily---I can drink lemon water every waking minute, I like it so much, hot or cold). The sleep will improve as I continue--I've only been on keto properly for two days (improperly for five days prior). As for electronics---I live in a one room studio of only 208 s.f., and that includes my bathroom. My bed is immediately next to my computer, and there isn't any other place to put it, nor is there any other way to arrange the room to move the computer further away from the bed. I've had to live with such an arrangement for 11 years, so that's likely done some damage (DEEP SIGH!)
On average I sleep about 5-6 hours a night, yes this gets less and less as I get older. I find that I have to nap during the day, for my body and mind functionality this is not an option.. it's a requirement to stay cognitive throughout my day. I use to take 30 minute power naps on my lunch break at work but then the Federal Government put a band on its employees for any sort of sleeping within federal facilities.. no really, I have the email to prove. Now one might say just head out to the car and get your nap in and to that I say, I ride a motorcycle to work.. every try napping on a sports bike, ya not the easiest or inconspicuous thing to do. If companies ran there operations like Google does for it's employees they would have a lot more happier and productive employees on the same cutting edge level.
Obviously your federal masters do not put those bands on congressmen or senators! Only the worker drones are subjected to draconian conditions. Banded like a slave to monitor you all day. The US is the land of the not so free.
Our profet mohamed recomand a nap it's in our religion Islam because we start the day very early with the first prayer at sunrise (alfajr) so a nap for 15 to 30 min is very important.thank you dr you're right.
As i get older (54) i find i want to get to bed earlier (9pm ) and get up earlier ( 5 am ) to catch the stillness of the mornings ... and give tks for my blessings
A power nap, even as low as 3 minutes if you can control it that well, is amazingly empowering. You may not believe it but I've snuck in a 10 _second_ power nap, a conscious shutdown giving way to a dream state, snapped right back and suddenly the dreary weariness snapped into alertness. Go ahead and argue that you can't enter that sleep state without staging. But I insist. I've done it. Achieved dream state in under five seconds. Believe it or not. At any rate, the snap-to-alertness is amazing.
Hey Doc! Been a follower for few months, learned more in that time than the past 25+ years of existence when it comes to the science of nutrition. Can’t thank you enough. You made a video about relation of malnutrition to sleep apnea, would you please do an updated video? This is a silent killer affecting so many people, some are close friends, that don’t even realize they have it, and those that know they do, are struggling severely with the troubleshooting and treatment process. Please touch on the influence of nutrition and fasting on both central vs obstructive sleep apneas. It would mean the world to many I have no doubt, thanks again doc and looking forward to your future videos! 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
75 years old, been on clean Keto 2.5 years and sleep an average of 6.5 hours. Don't nap often but try to meditate a few times a week, trying to get to daily...
I get usually get 7 hours and most always schedule a nap in the afternoon 30 to an hour usually. Possibly need at night more but I'm not sure. I fall asleep easily and sleep through now that I take Zoloft for mood. I let myself wake up on my own in the morning. I am 58... Thanks so much , Dr. Berg!
In answer to your Q: I get about 4 hours of sleep before waking. I then get another 2.5-3 hours after falling back asleep. I find that taking magnesium before bed, along with chamomile tea will 'knock me out' significantly better. I'm 70 years old, 165 pounds, 'modified' keto diet and OMAD.
Whenever I take a 20-30 mins nap, I feel very energetic after waking up, making a big difference. Highly recommend it. However if I took a 1-2 hour nap during the day, it would make me feel even more tired.
About 6 hours a night. Go to bed at 9:30 - 10:00, wake up about 4AM to 5AM. Some days when I'm at home and not working, I've taken a nap on rare occasions. I'm 60.
I am almost 50 and I get about 9 hours when not working and about 7 hours when working. I used to get up 1-3x a night to p, but do not ever have to now. So my sleep is getting better I think.
@@farinazrajabian1540 i find that it's almost impossible for me to have a good short nap if i start my day off with caffeine or eat a high carb meal prior to napping once i stopped all that all it took was a quiet dark room and timing it well so that i feel quite relaxed before my nap.
I'm 71 and unfortunately only get about 4 hours, on goodnights I'll get 6 hours. I am tired all the time. I do like naps but don't get to take them often. I used to work on the computer all day, on my brakes I would try and get a 10 minute power nap, it always helped!
I average about 7 hours, & never feel guilty for having a nap. 🤗 I hope your not suffering with Repetitive strain from the Tap Tap Tapping. Lol. Thank you for sharing this important information with us all. Take care & stay safe too everybody. 😷❤🙂🐶
I do 6 hrs sleeping every day!! But I like listening to any interesting lecture or subjects or music until I fall a sleep 😉😊 That is why I need one EMF device...beside my bed or on my cellphone when I going to bed but I fall a sleep so easy because of the long walk and taking Benfotamine (B1) at lest 180 mg per day
Hey doctor Berg I get about 6 hours of sleep and I really can't sleep anymore I have to get up but I do doze off in my recliner for an hour or so almost everyday after work I'm up at 3 in the morning I go to bed between 8 and 9 I sleep the whole time except once 2p LOL following you for the last nine months I have lost 80 lb I do Keto intermittent fasting and lift weights 5 days a week I went from 240 tu-160 and I am putting on muscle I feel great I'm 61 I don't think I've been in this good a shape since I was a teenager thanks a lot for all your information your help and your videos have a great night
I have an average of 8hrs in bed. 9:30pm to 5:30am. BUT, I always wake up at around 2am-3am and can't fall back asleep until maybe 4am. I take a nap as often as I can for about 15 min around 2-3pm and DOES Miracles.
I used to sleep really well, 8 hrs at least, and I was doing so great. Then I had a baby....she is 5 weeks....the cutest thing...but I am SO tired! I am going to try and be better at taking naps when she does. It is very tempting to get other things done, but I can tell my health is suffering from the lack of sleep.
I used to get only 5 to 6 hours of Light sleep every Night some nights zero sleep that went on for twenty years. I have spent a Lot of time to Improve my sleep. I now sleep 7 to 8 hours of Very deep restful sleep. This took a Lot of research and trying a Lot of different things till i finally GOT IT RIGHT. The difference Between Light sleep vs Deep Restful restorative sleep, is HUGH difference. I thought my Light sleep before was good sleep until i started sleeping MUCH DEEPER.!!! Light sleep is like only charging the battery half way, where as Deep sleep Provides a Much higher and Longer energy reserve.
Hey Dr. Berg. Nice video. It would be great if, as you said, you talked more in another video about the EMF and waves of energy that affect our body. Wifi/5G/etc. Thanks...
I am 69, I fall asleep in my recliner for about 2 hrs/ get up and go to restroom and then my bed for two hrs, and then restroom and back to recliner for 2hrs. So I get about 6 hrs of sleep every night- just not all at once, so the nap feels very good! If you are having back problems try sleeping in a recliner thats what helped me the most. lol!
Grounding or earthing reduces the effects of EMF on our bodies. I sleep 7 to 8 hours everyday and can still nap, sitting down any time I’m likely to go to sleep.
Omg Dr Berg has a video for EVERYTHING 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I seriously searched up “nap Dr berg” because I was curious to see if he had a video on it and sure enough he did lol
Thank you for sharing . I use to sleep a solid 8 , but when my dad died I became a carer to my disabled and dementia mother 24/7 for two years before she passed , it was extremely stress full as was getting up all through the night to help her . Killed my sleep pattern now I avarage 6 , but do nap in evenings .. unintentionally . Very kind of you to do the pen scraping...but it’s not for me , but as your so obliging , I like to be caressed before sleep...would the Mrs lend you out . 😉 Lol.
I am 65 years old. When I was young I could sleep 11 hours a day easily. It was difficult when going to school or working to reduce that to 8 hours. Now I need 7 hours of sleep at night to feel good. I envy my husband that he has a nap in the afternoon. If I sleep in the afternoon I get a headache.

To my employer regarding working from home: My doctor ( Dr. Berg) said I need to take a nap. I’m not avoiding work, I’m just doing as he prescribed.
Most work from home or in the office could be done in 2-3 hours. So, you have 5-6 hours of nap every day.

Obviously your federal masters do not put those bands on congressmen or senators! Only the worker drones are subjected to draconian conditions. Banded like a slave to monitor you all day. The US is the land of the not so free.
Our profet mohamed recomand a nap it's in our religion Islam because we start the day very early with the first prayer at sunrise (alfajr) so a nap for 15 to 30 min is very important.thank you dr you're right.
As i get older (54) i find i want to get to bed earlier (9pm ) and get up earlier ( 5 am ) to catch the stillness of the mornings ... and give tks for my blessings
Dr. Berg is the best!!! He is awesome!!!😊😊😊😊😊
A power nap, even as low as 3 minutes if you can control it that well, is amazingly empowering.
You may not believe it but I've snuck in a 10 _second_ power nap, a conscious shutdown giving way to a dream state, snapped right back and suddenly the dreary weariness snapped into alertness. Go ahead and argue that you can't enter that sleep state without staging. But I insist. I've done it. Achieved dream state in under five seconds. Believe it or not. At any rate, the snap-to-alertness is amazing.
I’m laughing my ass off. Did I just hear berg bleep out a cussword 2:36 seconds in? I love it
Hey Doc! Been a follower for few months, learned more in that time than the past 25+ years of existence when it comes to the science of nutrition. Can’t thank you enough. You made a video about relation of malnutrition to sleep apnea, would you please do an updated video? This is a silent killer affecting so many people, some are close friends, that don’t even realize they have it, and those that know they do, are struggling severely with the troubleshooting and treatment process. Please touch on the influence of nutrition and fasting on both central vs obstructive sleep apneas. It would mean the world to many I have no doubt, thanks again doc and looking forward to your future videos! 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
A dear friend left his family way too early due to a heart issue that was impacted from sleep apnea... And perhaps Nutritional deficiencies, too!
9 hours! I’m a good sleeper. I can still take a nap when the opportunity arises. And, oddly that tap, tap, tap was calming 🤷🏻♀️
75 years old, been on clean Keto 2.5 years and sleep an average of 6.5 hours. Don't nap often but try to meditate a few times a week, trying to get to daily...
Great sense of Humour Dr Berg has....
Naps turn into full sleep sometimes during lockdown.
6-7 hrs. Wake up constantly, From hip and knee pain.
I get usually get 7 hours and most always schedule a nap in the afternoon 30 to an hour usually. Possibly need at night more but I'm not sure. I fall asleep easily and sleep through now that I take Zoloft for mood. I let myself wake up on my own in the morning. I am 58... Thanks so much , Dr. Berg!
In answer to your Q: I get about 4 hours of sleep before waking. I then get another 2.5-3 hours after falling back asleep. I find that taking magnesium before bed, along with chamomile tea will 'knock me out' significantly better. I'm 70 years old, 165 pounds, 'modified' keto diet and OMAD.
*falls asleep at work*
Boss: What are you doing???
Me: Sorry, Dr.'s orders
;)
😂
😂
Whenever I take a 20-30 mins nap, I feel very energetic after waking up, making a big difference. Highly recommend it. However if I took a 1-2 hour nap during the day, it would make me feel even more tired.
I do have sometimes a 20 to 30 minutes of Nap
1:15 shows a kid making a game with unity...
IM LITERALLY DOING THE SAME THING 😂😂😭😭
About 6 hours a night. Go to bed at 9:30 - 10:00, wake up about 4AM to 5AM. Some days when I'm at home and not working, I've taken a nap on rare occasions. I'm 60.
As someone who suffers from sleap apnea, I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. It's a horrible way to suffer.
I am almost 50 and I get about 9 hours when not working and about 7 hours when working.
I used to get up 1-3x a night to p, but do not ever have to now.
So my sleep is getting better I think.
I sleep 8 hrs a night/9:30-5:30 plus a short, timed nap. Sleeping is my favorite hobby! 🤭
Wait till you get older....
How do you get nap? I try but I can’t sleep during the day🤔
@@farinazrajabian1540 i find that it's almost impossible for me to have a good short nap if i start my day off with caffeine or eat a high carb meal prior to napping once i stopped all that all it took was a quiet dark room and timing it well so that i feel quite relaxed before my nap.
Mickey Mic I am older. I’m 60. 😂
Farinaz Rajabian I have an awesome eye mask I got online. Manta Sleep is the name. 😎👍
I was holding the iPad progressively further away from myself as this video went on.
I'm 71 and unfortunately only get about 4 hours, on goodnights I'll get 6 hours. I am tired all the time. I do like naps but don't get to take them often. I used to work on the computer all day, on my brakes I would try and get a 10 minute power nap, it always helped!
I average about 7 hours, & never feel guilty for having a nap. 🤗
I hope your not suffering with Repetitive strain from the Tap Tap Tapping. Lol.
Thank you for sharing this important information with us all. Take care & stay safe too everybody. 😷❤🙂🐶
The tapping and scraping isn't fun for misophonic individuals, but a small price to pay for the priceless info.
I do 6 hrs sleeping every day!!
But I like listening to any interesting lecture or subjects or music until I fall a sleep 😉😊
That is why I need one EMF device...beside my bed or on my cellphone when I going to bed but I fall a sleep so easy because of the long walk and taking Benfotamine (B1) at lest 180 mg per day
I get an average of 4 hours sleep every night. It is not really the best.
I get 4-6 hours of very broken sleep and have started taking a nap for 1-2 hours every day if possible. My body forces me too!
😂😂😂 naps help me a lot to reduce my migraine attacks. I believe in naps !
I sleep about 6 hours a nite. I’m 69 years old. I’d like to sleep more
Me too but it is not possible.
After a night with no good sleep if I feel tired I go and take a nap for about 20 minutes and that change my life
Please upload a 1hr loop of you tapping the board it’ll genuinely help me to sleep easier 😩😩
Hey doctor Berg I get about 6 hours of sleep and I really can't sleep anymore I have to get up but I do doze off in my recliner for an hour or so almost everyday after work I'm up at 3 in the morning I go to bed between 8 and 9 I sleep the whole time except once 2p LOL following you for the last nine months I have lost 80 lb I do Keto intermittent fasting and lift weights 5 days a week I went from 240 tu-160 and I am putting on muscle I feel great I'm 61 I don't think I've been in this good a shape since I was a teenager thanks a lot for all your information your help and your videos have a great night
I have an average of 8hrs in bed. 9:30pm to 5:30am. BUT, I always wake up at around 2am-3am and can't fall back asleep until maybe 4am. I take a nap as often as I can for about 15 min around 2-3pm and DOES Miracles.
I do find the tapping and underlining on the screen soothing. I thought it was just me.
Would the EMF from a smart phone affect sleep if left beside your bed at night .
Thanks for everything Dr Berg , your a legend.
I used to sleep really well, 8 hrs at least, and I was doing so great. Then I had a baby....she is 5 weeks....the cutest thing...but I am SO tired! I am going to try and be better at taking naps when she does. It is very tempting to get other things done, but I can tell my health is suffering from the lack of sleep.
23 and usually get 4-6 hours of sleep a day and sometimes a good 2 hour nap on weekends
Yes! Do the EMF video please! 😁🙏
I love you're humor! 😆😆 You're awesome!
Great video, as always! 👍👍
I used to get only 5 to 6 hours of Light sleep every Night some nights zero sleep that went on for twenty years. I have spent a Lot of time to Improve my sleep. I now sleep 7 to 8 hours of Very deep restful sleep. This took a Lot of research and trying a Lot of different things till i finally GOT IT RIGHT. The difference Between Light sleep vs Deep Restful restorative sleep, is HUGH difference. I thought my Light sleep before was good sleep until i started sleeping MUCH DEEPER.!!! Light sleep is like only charging the battery half way, where as Deep sleep Provides a Much higher and Longer energy reserve.
Five hours of sleep and I very often need a nap.
Just woke up from a nap and saw this new video:)
Hey Dr. Berg. Nice video. It would be great if, as you said, you talked more in another video about the EMF and waves of energy that affect our body. Wifi/5G/etc. Thanks...
Dr Berg, you are a life saver. Do you know that? Thank you! Like.
57 male here. My ideal amount of sleep seems to be about 8.5 hours. I rarely get that uninterrupted. I usually nap 20 minutes or so most days.
I am 69, I fall asleep in my recliner for about 2 hrs/ get up and go to restroom and then my bed for two hrs, and then restroom and back to recliner for 2hrs. So I get about 6 hrs of sleep every night- just not all at once, so the nap feels very good! If you are having back problems try sleeping in a recliner thats what helped me the most. lol!
Haha I do like that sound too! I'm 32 and I get on average 6 hours a night during the week. When the weekend rolls around I get 8-9.
Grounding or earthing reduces the effects of EMF on our bodies. I sleep 7 to 8 hours everyday and can still nap, sitting down any time I’m likely to go to sleep.
Omg Dr Berg has a video for EVERYTHING 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I seriously searched up “nap Dr berg” because I was curious to see if he had a video on it and sure enough he did lol

Dr. Eric Berg DC the stylus sound can trigger "ASMR" in people with synesthesia only when the board is hit with classic elegance and style
Thank you for sharing . I use to sleep a solid 8 , but when my dad died I became a carer to my disabled and dementia mother 24/7 for two years before she passed , it was extremely stress full as was getting up all through the night to help her . Killed my sleep pattern now I avarage 6 , but do nap in evenings .. unintentionally . Very kind of you to do the pen scraping...but it’s not for me , but as your so obliging , I like to be caressed before sleep...would the Mrs lend you out . 😉 Lol.
I am 65 years old. When I was young I could sleep 11 hours a day easily. It was difficult when going to school or working to reduce that to 8 hours. Now I need 7 hours of sleep at night to feel good. I envy my husband that he has a nap in the afternoon. If I sleep in the afternoon I get a headache.
