- The 90-Minute Full Cycle: Ideal for a weekend refresh or when working from home. This nap helps process complex information and can restore cognitive performance.
- Time to Fall Asleep: We add 15 minutes to the calculation to account for the time it typically takes to fall asleep. This ensures your nap provides the full recommended duration of actual sleep.
