本文摘自Matthew Walker的《Why We Sleep》，揭示了睡眠对人类生活的重要影响。书中指出，人类睡眠模式随年龄变化，新生儿在三四个月后开始展现生理节奏；成年人的睡眠时长普遍不足七小时，而双相睡眠模式（夜间长睡+午后小憩）可能更健康。研究显示，放弃午睡的人心脏病风险增加37%。此外，睡眠对于大脑发展至关重要，尤其是在青少年时期，NREM睡眠的纺锤波活动对记忆巩固起到关键作用。短暂的NREM睡眠午觉也能增强记忆和减少肌肉疲劳。

How should we sleep in Chaper 4

Throughout developed nations, most adults currently sleep in a monophasic pattern-that is, we try to take a long, single bout of slumber at night, the average duration of which is now less than seven hours.
Hunter-gatherer tribes, such as the Gabra in northern Kenya or the San people in the Kalahari Desert, whose way of life has changed little over the past thousands of years, sleep in a biphasic pattern. Both these groups take a similarly longer sleep period at night (seven to eight hours of time in bed, achieving about seven hours of sleep), followed by a thirty-to sixty-minute nap in the afternoon. There is also evidence for a mix of the two sleep patterns, determined by time of year. In the hotter summer months, a thirty- to forty-minute nap at high noon is good. Then they switch to a lar
