"I swear by a midday snooze during my working day - hot girls take naps"
- 10 months ago
A woman swears by a midday snooze during her working day and says it’s empowering for “hot girls” to take naps.
Rose Bell, 21, takes an hour nap while working remotely from home most days - referring to it as an "extended lunch break".
She finds the perfect time to rest her eyes is between 11am and 3pm for and makes sure to set an alarm if she needs to be up for a meeting - so she can check her hair and put on some mascara beforehand.
Rose said the naps leave her feeling “refreshed and motivated” to finish the rest of the working day.
Recent research from the University College London suggests a snooze during the day is good for the brain.
Rose hopes naps can be normalised and accepted in the workplace.
Rose, an actress and account executive, from Hollywood, Los Angeles, US, said: “I have a nap on most days.
“Staring at my screen all day can be tiring.
“If I don’t have any work that I need to do I think ‘I’m just going to take a nap’.
“Afterwards I feel really refreshed and motivated.
“Hot girls take naps – it’s empowering.”
Growing up Rose’s mum, Kyla, 50, took naps throughout the day as a stay-at-home-mum – so it became normalised for Rose.
Now she takes a nap every day she can – on working days and on days off.
She said: “I’m young and in LA – sometimes you go out on a night out and come back at 2am.
“I might need a nap the next day.
“I take an hour to two-hour nap.
“It’s an extended lunch break.
“No one can stop me.”
Rose often works from her bed, the sofa or her kitchen and finds it easy to crawl into her bed for a snooze when she feels her body needs it.
She said: “I’ll set an alarm 10 minutes before I have to be on a call.
“Then I can sort my hair and put on mascara.
“If I’m open for the rest of the day, I won’t set an alarm and just keep my phone on loud.
“I feel much happier when I’ve had that break.
“I’m grumpy when I’m tired.”
Rose said having a nap hasn’t interfered with her work and instead makes her more productive.
She said: “I feel refreshed instead of dragging on the rest of the work day.
“If I could nap when I was six, I think I can nap now as an adult.
“Would you like an employee who is tired but awake or one who is refreshed an energised?
“Naps should be accepted in the workplace – in the same way a lunch break is.”
