I've noticed that when I'm tired mentally, closing my eyes for a while even if I don't sleep makes me feel better. I wonder if that's related by letting that part of the brain power down for a bit?

Yeah. Maybe my mom’s claim that she was just resting her eyes was valid. We always suspected she was unwilling to admit she was napping.
