WEEKLY ARTICLE
Power Naps
It is now really truly summertime.
We are still uncurling from our little "staycation", and not that we napped so much, because we really truly did have a ton of "projects" to catch up on, but the idea of a nap did cross our minds in a most appealing way during our break. Our otherwise unused couch was calling our name! And wait a minute; I think we did manage maybe two naps during our two-week break. That equates to roughly one nap per week! Not too bad for napping novices!
Life is a little slower in the South Florida neck of the woods during the summer compared to the frenetic pace of the winter season down here. But of course the opposite is true for our friends and readers in other parts of the country. Your busier season is summer, and summer is a busy busy time in the colder climes as you finally get to be out and about.
But back to South Florida, long hot hot hot afternoons here in the sub-tropics are just perfect for a quick power nap or two.
And just what is a power nap, and how is it different than a plain old nap you may ask.
|
The ideal naptime is actually about twenty minutes long.
 
A twenty-minute mind rest, aka a power nap, boosts alertness, optimizes motor function, and increases general performance.
Taking a longer nap, say between thirty minutes to one hour, puts a napper into a slow-wave sleep pattern that can leave one feeling groggy and foggy upon awakening, which is NOT the desired outcome.
This is important, and works out quite well in fact, because catching a quick twenty-minute power nap is an attainable goal and does not require blocking out longer and less realistic periods of time for napping. Time that most of us don't have.
One of our favorite sayings here at Wholly Macro comes to mind right about now:
"More is not better".
Just because something is good for you, or feels good to you, does not mean that more of that something is better for you.
|
A nap is a perfect example.
Keep your naps short and sweet.
Reboot just long enough to keep your brain functioning at its optimal level, knowing that you will recharge it fully when you go to sleep that night.
A recent six year study conducted by the Harvard School of Public Health on naps found that taking a nap at least three times a week reduced coronary mortality by 37%. In other words, napping is good for your heart!!
The Harvard study also found that naps increase creativity and memory.
Many workplaces, and many individuals frown on napping. But more progressive workplaces actually designate power nap areas, recognizing their ultimate value to long-term employee productivity.
If only we were allowed to nap when I worked the twelve-hour night shift as a nurse. Now there is a perfect example of a non-progressive workplace in action!!! Being caught napping (even during break time) while on that job resulted in immediate grounds for dismissal.
|
No one at that job was functioning at his or her best. One visionary CEO designating rotating power nap breaks could have made all of the difference in the world for employee productivity and performance!
Be that visionary CEO, of your OWN body.
Give yourself non-guilty permission to power nap a few times a week, and do your heart and soul some much needed good.
It fits in well with the many other balanced aspects of a healthy diet and lifestyle, such as the delicious June 12 Wholly Macro Delivery Menu, which you will find immediately below.
May health, happiness, and prosperity be your unavoidable natural state and your ongoing daily experience.
Happy Napping.

**Wholly Macro makes every attempt to maintain a totally vegan and allergen free kitchen cooking environment. We make every effort to avoid any type of cross contamination during food preparation. Most foods used in the Wholly Macro kitchen are not packaged, but instead are bought in the produce section or in bulk. But as you know, cross contamination is always a possibility, especially with bulk items. And in the few packaged foods that we do use, such as nut butters for example, it is common to find warnings on the manufacturer label stating that the item was processed in a plant that handles tree nuts, soy, wheat, dairy, gluten, shellfish, and so on.
Wholly Macro cannot be responsible for trace amounts of common food allergens that come from outside (packaged or bulk items), and therefore end up occurring within our prepared foods. Please use your own discretion in determining if our food is appropriate for your consumption, especially if you have severe food allergies.
We are always available to clarify any of the ingredients that we use, and assist you in your weekly selections, but we cannot keep track of your food allergies, sensitivities, likes, dislikes or preferences.

Here's some feedback from a consultation client..... " three years ago I discovered that I had breast cancer. I had heard of Macrobiotics years ago. I didn't understand the concept but immediately I knew that that would be the route that I would pursue. But where to go and who to see was the question. Thank God for reading the macrobiotic newsletter. For in the newsletter there was an article about Gayle Stolove. I just felt her strength and passion burn through the page that I was reading. I immediately made an appointment to see her and although I was still so frightened, I felt so comfortable talking with Gayle. Gayle guided me through the whole process. I thought that the macrobiotic way of life would be boring and just eating rice. Well, I love the foods that I eat and I just feel good about it all. You see, after the surgery, you are sort of left on your own.You have to make your own decisions, etc. Everyone gives you different advice as what to eat, what to do, etc. Doctors don't understand what the patient is going through nor do they understand what kind of diet they should follow. I adopted Gayle as my guardian angel. You can't find that with any nutritionist or doctor. I love receiving her weekly e-mailed newsletters. They are so full of wonderful knowledge and beautiful healthy recipes. Gayle is a remarkable human being. She truly cares for her clients and gives them her all, one hundred percent of the time. Gayle has been there and therefore she is so compassionate and dedicates her life to helping people like me....." a cancer survivor |
