Get 20 winks. Naps aren't for everybody, but they might help recharge older people who aren't sleeping as soundly as they used to, Dr. Ricer says. Younger people with very hectic schedules and short nights also might consider taking naps. If you do decide to take naps, try to take them at the same time each day and for no more than an hour.
