Most of us will enjoy a good afternoon nap now and again, but a new study shows that naps can actually benefit your brain health. The study showed a correlation between afternoon naps and improved mental agility & cognitive function as we age.

It was noted that taking naps longer than two hours could actually have negative effects.
