a nap session at the dreamery can be booked through a number of different mediums, such ClassPass or MINDBODY, a similar process to how one would book a work out class. neil parik, co-founder and COO at casper states, ‘the dreamery is about making sleep and rest a part of our regular wellness routines.

at first, the idea of a ‘nap-cafe’ may seem unnecessary, but an abstract of a paper published in 2010 on the us national library of medicine, pub med, indicates that naps or ‘brief sleeps,‘ can actually ‘improve cognitive performance.’ although the paper states that their findings need to be ‘accepted cautiously until more comprehensive research‘ is conducted with variables better controlled and changed, the dreamery is another potential solution to satisfy humanity’s constant search for a better sleepcasper dreamery
