In this latest AMA episode, Matt and Eti are back to tackle listener questions about naps and sleepwalking this time around. They begin by delving into the intricacies of power naps and their impact on brain function and sleep health, and go on to discuss the optimal timing and duration for naps, emphasizing that a balance between benefits and drawbacks is crucial.

Shorter naps of 10-20 minutes are highlighted for their ability to boost alertness and focus with minimal sleep inertia. Conversely, longer naps offer more substantial cognitive benefits but come with the risk of grogginess upon waking, particularly due to the transition from deeper stages of non-REM sleep. The discussion also explores the origins of "power naps," touching on research by NASA and the FAA that underscores the value of napping in high-stakes environments like space missions and long-haul flights.

Addressing sleepwalking, a common sleep disorder in children, our hosts offer practical advice on managing it safely, reassuring parents that sleepwalking often decreases with age and that maintaining a regular sleep schedule can help mitigate episodes. They also provide on how to deal with a child while they are in the act of sleepwalking.

The episode concludes with a thoughtful reflection on the importance of sleep for overall health and well-being, reinforcing the critical role that sleep plays in our lives.
