NSDR After Learning

After a learning session, take about 20 minutes of non-sleep deep rest or a brief shallow nap with eyes closed and minimal sensory input. This post-learning rest appears to accelerate learning and consolidation, likely by helping the brain rewire and retain new information more effectively.

If immediately after-- and it was immediately after the learning, the actual performance of this task, people took a 20-minute non-sleep deep-rest protocol or took a shallow nap, so lying down, feet slightly elevated, perhaps, just closing their eyes, no sensory input, the rates of learning were significantly higher for that information than were they to just had a good night's sleep the following night.
