I prefer to take my naps behind the couch. Sprinkling my trousers with aniseed helps me to relax.

Or you can always do it like Thomas Edison.
Go till you can't go any more, sit down in an uncushioned hardback chair, hold a serving spoon in your hand, put a metal plate under where your hand hangs, sleep until you drop the spoon and the spoon hitting the metal pan wakes you up.
It's said that he could go another 4 to 6 hours after that type of nap.

I also heard he used to lie on a pool table with a pool ball in each hand, stretch out over the edge.
