Modified Suggestopedia also incorporated napping and relaxation as essentials in the reading instruction. This gave them opportunity to break free from the stressful tasks in the classroom. Power nap also improves brains functioning like creative problem solving, verbal memory, perceptual learning, object learning, and statistical learning (Dvorsky,2013).This means that one can think better if napping is included in their daily routine.
