Motion/heat: you are not alone....back in grad school the best naps I ever had was when I rode the bus. Due to the constant mild motion, monotone sound and the heat of the bus I would slowing drift away. It's kind of the same thing as white noise, noise cancelling headphones or who babies are calmed to sleep via slight motion combo with shushing sounds. Same thing can happen on long car rides. no worries
