Sample Answer:
- Well, in today’s modern lifestyle, it’s quite difficult to concentrate on something for a long time.
- People use different techniques, like yoga, meditation, walking and other activities to improve their focus.
- Here, I would like to talk about one thing that I do almost every day to improve my concentration, which is power nap.
- Power naps are a kind of very short sleep that helps to provide more energy.
- Whenever I feel lethargic and bored, I prefer to take a power nap.
- If I am at work or school, I close my eyes for a few minutes while sitting on my seat in order to relax myself.
- But, I usually lay down on my bed to take a nap when I am at home.
- I have to say I feel more energetic and motivated after sleeping for just 10-15 minutes.
- I came to know about this technique through a YouTube video, which was an eye opener for me.
- At the same time, I have also read articles on the internet and acquired some valuable information and its potential benefits.
- As per the scientific studies, the main benefits of power naps include enhanced memory, improved cognitive performance, feeling happier and stronger logical reasoning.
- Moreover, in Japan, companies allow their employees to take a nap during the day-time, so they can work more efficiently.
- I must say, I can work/ study for hours after taking a short sleep, which helps me complete my tasks fast and easily due to enhanced focus.
- So, I take a power nap to improve my concentration.
