I was reading this article this evening, and it makes so much sense to me.
Our society as a whole supposedly places a high value on productivity, but proves itself wrong when it alienates normal sleep hygiene. I have been advocating an adult nap time modeled after the Spanish siesta for years, because it actually increases productivity!
To that end, look at the Google campus and the way they run their company. High-quality, free meals on demand. Gyms and nap areas on site. No mandatory work hours. On-site healthcare. And Google is one of the most productive companies in the United States.
I think we should all take a page from the playbooks of Google and Europe. Bring back nap time!
