How often do you take a nap?
Brother Leo Mary, MFVA, of the Franciscan Missionaries of the Eternal Word with EWTN recorded a video for the community’s Instagram page explaining the importance of good quality sleep.
In the video, Brother Leo says, “Father Angelus would tell us, 70% of our sins come from not sleeping enough. If you think about it, when you get irritable and cranky, it’s usually because you haven’t gotten enough sleep.
“So he said, ‘When in doubt, take a nap.’
“There was a lady that told me she went to confession to Father Angeles, and he said, ‘For your penance, take a nap.’
“‘She said, ‘I’ve never heard that before.’
“And yet, we need our sleep, and each person is different, so you need to know how much sleep you need. And so for me, I’m gonna take a nap.”
In conclusion, Brother Leo then humorously drops down on the bed.
