during the intial days of practice u will feel tired, but it is not suggested to take a nap as the whole practice will not be effective if you nap.

If you are getting tired after the Yogic practice, you can take a short nap or Yog Nidra. I think you check your blood, maybe you may be short of Haemoglobin (iron).

You are advised to gradually increase the duration and repetition of your asana practices. Even after that if you feel drowsy it is advisable to take rest for a while since your body needs it.

One should do Shavasana for at least 5 minutes after practising Yoga which relieves from all tireness.
