About National Napping Day 2026

National Napping Day 2026, created by Boston University professor William Anthony in 1999, is strategically placed on the Monday after daylight saving time begins — when most of us have lost an hour of sleep and need it most. The day aims to make napping socially acceptable and highlight the health benefits of a midday rest. Research shows that a 20-minute nap can improve alertness by 54% and performance by 34%. Famous nappers include Leonardo da Vinci, Albert Einstein, and Winston Churchill, who credited his daily nap with helping him lead Britain through World War II. So go ahead — close your eyes, set an alarm, and embrace the power of the nap.
