      Why are naps composed mainly of REM sleep?

      I really don't understand why a nap is composed of mainly REM sleep, whereas if you go to sleep for the night it isn't.

      What if you have a nap at 7pm?

      Can anyone explain this to me?

      Hmm... Interesting point. Because all dreaming takes place in REM sleep, right? I've always wondered how people have tricked their minds into going straight into REM sleep...

      Ya I've also noticed that you go right into dreaming when you take a nap.
      I wonder if anyone has studied to to any extent?

      Okay seriously, why hasn't anyone told me this? You mean I could go straight into dreaming if I tried this napping business?

      Well I'll be damned.
