Proctect a Bed is saluting nappers! If you are a frequent reader of my personal blog, you are well aware of my love of the nap. I think everyone should have a nap every day! I think it would increase productivity and make the evening commute much friendlier.
The part of napping no one ever wants to mention is gross part - the drooling! Oh, come on, you know you do it. You wake up with a damp pillow and when you change your pillowcase, you see those unsightly marks on your pillow that is hard evidence of your open mouthed snoozing. Don't even get me started about those of you who wake up with your head on your desk and the little puddle... Yuck!
According to Protect a Bed's research, here are some things that drooling leads to INSIDE that fluffy mound of down you lay your pretty little head on:
Sleeping on pillows filled with allergens and bacteria exacerbate allergy problems, as you inevitably breathe in the toxins, whether you’re taking a 20-minute restorative nap or getting eight hours of sleep.
Protect a Bed's Pillow Protectors KEEP ALL THIS GROSS STUFF FROM HAPPENING. You take off your pillow protector, throw it in the wash and put it back on. It's a barrier to keep your pillow from becoming a fluffy bacteria farm and it doesn't affect the sleepability (I just made that up, can you tell?) of your pillow at all.
National Napping Day is always the day after Daylight Savings time begins. That lost hour doesn't seem like much when you're setting you clock back, but you know you're dragging on Monday morning to get yourself up and get to work. Your kids are out of sorts, you have to do all kinds of complicated time math for weeks, "Well, it's 10am but my body thinks it's 11am, so I'm hungry and WHY ARE THESE PLACES STILL SERVING BREAKFAST!?" You're falling asleep before the 10 o'clock news...
This is a holiday I can really get behind!
