Nana nap. Every afternoon if I can. Just a half hour power nap, and the difference it makes is phenomenal.

I can stay sharp all afternoon, and right up to bed time, with just a very fast nap in the afternoon. I'm all for it.

Every time I've tried 15-30 minute naps I was completely wasted afterwards. Powernapping isn't for everyone I guess.

There are phases of sleep that you pass through. Seems like you pass through the lighter ones relatively quickly and you're getting dragged awake out of a deep sleep phase.

Either give it a little bit longer (like 35-45 minutes) or try 10 minute catnaps.
