Unfortunately there is not a lot you can do to discourage this bevahiour. Anything that you do to try and make it an unfriendly sleep environment would also make the litter box feel unsafe to do her business in.
I would recommend making sure your kitty has a couple of nice comfy spots where she CAN sleep peacefully, and encourage her to use those areas rather than the litter box. You can gently pick her up from the litter box and place her in an alternate location, using products like catnip and Feliway in the alternate areas can help too.
