How should you take a 'spoon nap'?

Salvador Dali's method for scientifically substantiating ideas.

The Spanish, especially Andalusians, are called lazy because they have the habit of taking a nap, but in reality they have science on their side. Not only has napping been shown to have health benefits, but there are also studies that directly suggest that it is a habit typical of geniuses. You probably think that naps are just for recovery after a bad night to have more energy, but scientists are studying it to improve creativity and learning. In any case, this new application was already put into practice by Salvador Dalí with the spoon nap. This Spaniard, known all over the world, took a nap with a spoon in his hand and, just below it, a small plate. The moment the artist fell asleep, the spoon slipped between his fingers, hit the saucer and the sound woke him up. According to him, this very short nap enhanced his creativity and made him wake up with new ideas to work on. Now science has proven Dalí right.
