        Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch. I have a habit of taking a nap (小睡) after lunch.

        Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy later.
